Madhubala, one of the most beautiful and unmatched actresses of Hindi cinema, is still alive in the hearts of her loved ones. Tales of her beauty, simplicity and brilliant performances are recorded in many books. Madhubala gave many great films in her small career, but her life was equally full of difficulties.
Do you know that Madhubala was not allowed to watch his own film ‘Laughing Tears’? Khatija Akbar has mentioned this interesting story in his book ‘I Want to Live’.
Why Madhubala could not watch her film?
Madhubala worked at the age of 16 in the film ‘Hanste Tear’ released in 1950. The film was the first such film of Indian cinema, which was given by the Censor Board A Certificate (only for adult audience). The story of the film was based on serious and sensitive topics.
Since Madhubala was a minor at that time, she did not get permission to be seen in her own film theater. This was a rare and interesting event when an actor was prevented from watching his own film.
Madhubala’s struggle life
Madhubala was born on 14 February 1933 in Delhi. He stepped into films at a very young age, as his family’s financial condition was weak. His father, Ataullah Khan, was quite strict and many stringent rules were applicable to Madhubala’s life.
Madhubala’s life was as beautiful as it was from outside, the same pain was filled from inside. He had heart disease since childhood. He died on 23 February 1969 at the age of 36. There was no cure for his illness (Congressal Heart Disease) at that time.
Why is the story of Madhubala and ‘laughing tears’?
This incident is not only a unique aspect of Madhubala’s life, but also a unique chapter in the history of Indian cinema. This shows how Madhubala left a deep impression on the big screen with her performance even at an early age.
Madhubala may not have got a chance to watch her film, but her art and heritage made a place in the hearts of the audience of the cinema forever.
