Storyline

Mughal-e-Azam was the most successful movie of the 60’s with the towering performances from Dilip Kumar, Prithviraj Kapoor and beautiful Madhubala. Mughal-e-Azam is about Price Salim who is in love with court dancer Anarkali and wants to marry her.

Akbar who is right on his part as how a prince of the Mughal empire marry a so call court dancer and Salim thinks from his heart and sees nothing wrong following his heart beating for Anarkali.

Madhubala was the queen on grace and beauty; she was one of the most beautiful actresses of Indian cinema. Madhubala was perfect for Anarkali’s role as it needed someone with simplicity and grace to justify court dancers that do not have status make Mughal prince mad about her beauty. Unfortunately Madhubala died at a very early age with a complicated heart disease in London.
