Madhubala Biography, Movies, Death, Net Worth, Awards, Songs
Madhubala was a Hindi-language cinema actress and producer from India. She was one of India's highest-paid entertainers in the post-independence era, which coincided with the global rise of Indian cinema. Madhubala had a career spanning more than 20 years, but she was mostly active for about a decade and had acted in over 60 films by the time she died in 1969.
Madhubala's portrayal of Anarkali in the historical epic drama Mughal-e-Azam (1960), India's highest-grossing film at the time, earned her widespread critical acclaim and her only Filmfare Award nomination for Best Actress; her performance has since been described by critics as one of the finest in Indian cinematic history. In the 1960s, she appeared in a few films and made her final appearance in the play Sharabi (1964). She also produced three films through her production company, Madhubala Private Ltd., which she co-founded in 1953.
Despite maintaining strict privacy, Madhubala had extensive media coverage for her charitable work and her seven-year relationships with actor Dilip Kumar and actor-singer Kishore Kumar, whom she eventually married in 1960. She suffered from frequent spells of dyspnea and hemoptysis caused by a ventricular septal defect since her early thirties, eventually leading to her death in 1969.
