The Movie industry in the subcontinent is over eighty years old.Were someone to set about finding
who among the thousands of women who have passed across this shimmering dreamland was the
most stunning, the most beautiful, there would be little difference of opinion about that woman being
Mumtaz Begum, whom the world knew by her screen name Madhubala...
She died young, nine days after her thirty-seventh birthday.The 2 most important men in her life
only brought her immense pain, though they must have loved her in his own fashion.
The First was her Father, the authoritarian, hard driving Ataullah khan who in his frenzied bid to
control her life and career does not seem to have paid much attention to the Heart condition with
which she was born and which killed her.She was the toast of India and Pakistan and wherever else
movies made in India were seen, but she was like a prisoner in her own home. She was not allowed
to meet people unless they were pre-cleared by her father, nor was she permitted to be a part of the
industry to which her whole life was dedicated.It is hard to believe that this heartthroab of millions
was a defenseless young woman tyrannised over by a harsh father.
The other man in Madhbala's life who let her down was Dilip Kumar.They were in love and once it is
said he asked her to drop everything and just come with him, but she wanted her father's permission
which ofcourse was refused.Later, Dilip Kumar to his eternal shame, appeared as a witness against her
in a bitter court battle,that broke her heart...While Dilip was testifying against her she is supposed to have
turned to har lawyer R.D.Chadha and said 'I don't believe this is the man who was so in love with me and
whom i loved more than anyone or anything else in the world'.....
Madhubala made one last attempt to reach out to Dilip Kumar. She asked their mutual friend the movie
journalist Bunny Reuben to go to Dilip and tell him,how despite the court case she still loved him....the
moment Bunny mentioned why he was there, Dilip jumped at him angrily'What Rubbish? What love?'
Feeling lost and rejected Madhubala once and only time defied her father and married Kishore Kumar.
It was a disastrous marriage,it never worked....
Nature had given her unparalleld beauty, but it had also left a hole in her heart which in the 1960's was
considered a condition that could not be repaired........
She lies in the Santa Cruz graveyard in Bombay, where among others lie Mohammad Rafi and even
her father Ataullah Khan, who can no longer tyrannise her.
