💨 Abstract

In 1953, a tense moment on the set of Mughal-e-Azam nearly halted production due to Dilip Kumar's refusal to use derogatory language for Anarkali, played by Madhubala. Director K Asif, backed by dialogue writer Kamal Amrohi, refused to alter the script. Amrohi's poetic dialogues became iconic and defined the film's success.
