Movie Reviews of Mughal E Azam

Movie Review: Masterpiece
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched this film together with others to get an idea what "bollywood" is all about. I found it outstanding. It has the quality of great silent film. One comes to think of Griffith, sometimes even Dreyer. Every character, even the minor ones, is fully developped and greatly portrayed. I admired the actors, of course the leads, but also for example the aristocratic woman in love with the prince outshone by the slave girl, pining in the background. What an actress! I think my life would be poorer if I hadn't seen this film, especially the central dance and singing number of the slave girl "I have loved, so what is there to fear?". A hypnotic tune!

Summary of Mughal E Azam

Salim (Dilip Kumar) the son of Emperor Akbar (Prithviraj Kapoor), the ruler of India, falls in love with Anarkali (Madhubala), a courtesan. The Emperor does not like this and decides to separate them. When Akbar's pressure gets too much for Anarkali, Salim declares war on his father but he loses the battle. Akbar sentences Salim to death but in keeping with the ways of true lovers, Anarkali decides to renounce her life to save her beloved.
