THE LOVE AFFAIR BETWEEN DILIP AND MADHUBALA
Without distraction, Madhubala faced Dilip Kumar in Mughal-E-Azam; which took ten years to make. By then, Madhubala's father, Ataullah Khan, had become a domineering stage father and he did his best to keep Dilip away from Madhubala. However, like Romeo and Juliet, Dilip and Madhubala found ways to see each other; sometimes a mutual friend's home and if not; there was always on set.
They found ways and means of meeting each other, away from Ataullah Khan's disapproving eye sometimes in Sushila Rani's house, sometimes in her make-up room.
