![]() Madhubala and Dilip Kumar (Yusuf Khan) were madly in love. If it wasn’t her beauty, then her love life (or may be the lack of it) and her troubled marriage was what people remember her for. ![]() Madhubala’s wax model at Delhi’s Madame Tussauds museum. Baburao Patel, editor and publisher of FilmIndia, both feared and respected by the film industry, had dubbed her the ‘Venus of the Indian Screen’. Dev Anand was once quoted as saying “statuesque is the word I would use for her”. Her co-stars would often talk of her admiringly. ![]() So striking was her beauty that famous film journalist BK Karanjia had declared that ‘none of her published photographs did full justice to her quite extraordinary beauty’. It is a known fact that every beautiful and successful actress who has ruled the Indian silver screen has been compared to Madhubala, at least once in her lifetime. Known for her legendary beauty and her coquettish charm, Madhubala (real name Mumtaz Jehan Begum Dehlavi) was much more than that. Madhubala is, by far, the most iconic silver screen goddess India has produced.
