9) SEENE MEIN SULAGTI HAIN ARMAAN
http://mp3mad.com/tones/tone.php?id=190922
Seene mein sulagte hain armaan aankho mein udaasi chhaayi hai
Desires kindle in the heart sorrow is entrenched in my eyes
Ye aaj teri duniya se hamein Taqdeer kaha le aayi hai
Today from your world where has fate brought me
Seene mein sulagte hain armaan
Desires kindle in the heart
Kuchh aankh mein aansoo baaki hain (Jo mere gham ke saathi hain) 2
Some tears in the eyes are still left the friends of my grief
(Ab dil hain na dil ke armaan hain)2 Bas main hu meri tanhaai hai
There is the heart but no desire of the heart just me and my lonliness
Seene mein sulagte hain armaan
Desires kindle in the heart
Na tujhse gila koyi hamko na koyi shikayat duniya se
I don't have to blame you no complaints to the world
(Do char kadam jab manzil thi)2Qismat ne thokar khayi hai
When the destination was four steps away fate has pushed me
Seene mein sulagte hain armaan
Desires kindle in the heart
Ek aisi aag lagi man mein jeene bhi na de marne bhi na de
Some type of fire was lit in my heart it won't let me live, it won't let me die
(Chup hu to kaleja jalta hai)2 Bolu to teri ruswaayi hai
If I am silent, my chest burns if I talk, then it will be your disgrace
Seene mein sulagte hain armaan
Desires kindle in the heart

Madhubala's story in her sister's words
I had earlier written a post on Madhubala. Today I read her younger sisterâs interview on rediff, where Madhur Bhushan (real name Zahida) discusses the three important relationships in Madhubalaâs life: her Father, Dilip Kumar, and Kishore Kumar.
You then realize how egotistic and full of themselves the big stars have been.

Entry into movies:
My father, Ataullah Khan, was working in the Imperial Tobacco Company in Peshawar, Pakistan, when he lost his job and decided to come to Mumbai. Madhubala was seven at that time. Her real name was Mumtaz Begum. We called her Mazliappa, as she was the fifth child.
My father started looking for a job. He also took Madhubala to film studios. She got work in Basant (1942) at the age of nine. The leading ladyâs name was Mumtaz Shanti, so Madhubala was called Baby Mumtaz, when she was a child actress.
She got her first break in Kirdar Sharmaâs Neel Kamal. Kirdarâs wife was supposed to play the lead role but she passed away. As Madhubala knew the dialogues, she became a heroine at the age of 13. From this film onwards, she was credited as Madhubala. The film did not do well, but her work was appreciated.
Madhubala shot to fame in 1949 with Mahal. She was 16. At that time, no one realised that she was sick, not even my father. Madhubala was a healthy child, and very bubbly.

Her illness:
Madhubala first vomited blood when she was in Chennai shooting for S S Vassanâs Bahut Din Huwe (1954). She was treated, and she resumed shooting. Nobody thought she was sick until she fainted on J K Nandaâs sets while shooting with Raj Kapoor on Chalack (1957). The film never got completed. Thatâs when the doctor said that she had a hole in her heart. She was 24 then.
She was advised bed rest for three months, but after a month of rest, Madhubala resumed work. Looking at her, one would not say that she was sick. She, herself, was not ready to believe that she was sick.
Her last film was Mughal-E-Azam, which released in 1960. People think that she worked after that too, but thatâs not true. She had completed all her films in the 10 years that it took for Mughal-E-Azam to be made.
Some movies released after she was bedridden but she was in no condition to work after Mughal-E-Azam. In fact, in some of the scenes, you will notice that she looks pale and sick.

Romance with Dilip Kumar:
The reason Madhubala broke up with Dilip Kumar was B R Chopraâs film Naya Daur, not my father.
Madhubala had shot a part of the film when the makers decided to go for an outdoor shoot to Gwalior. The place was known for dacoits, so my father asked them to change the location. They disagreed because they wanted a hilly terrain. So my father asked her to quit the film. He was ready to pay the deficit.
Chopra asked Dilip Kumar for help. Dilipsaab and Madhubala were engaged then. Dilipsaab tried to mediate but Madhubala refused to disobey her father.
Chopraâs production filed a case against her, which went on for a year. But this did not spoil their relationship.
Dilipsaab told her to forget movies and get married to him. She said she would marry him, provided he apologised to her father. He refused, so Madhubala left him. That one âsorryâ could have changed her life. She loved Dilipsaab till the day she died.
Former Member
Marriage with Kishore Kumar:
When Madhubala fell sick and was planning to go to London for treatment, Kishore Kumar proposed marriage.
My father wanted her to wait and get a clean chit from the London doctors first. But Madhubala married Kishore Kumar out of stubbornness, and anger towards Dilipsaab. They got married in 1960. She was 27 years old.
Once the doctor gave his verdict â that she would not live for long â Kishorebhai brought her a house in Mumbaiâs Carter Road and dumped her there alone, with a nurse and a driver. He would come once in about four months to see her. He did not take her phone calls. Kishorebhai was madly in love with Madhubala but once she returned from London, he dumped her. He was not a good husband.
Madhubala was very depressed because no one came to meet her. Once upon a time, she was hot property in the industry. But when she was bedridden and dying, not a single person met her. Also, she could no longer dress up. She was in night gowns most of the time. She died at the age of 36.

The beautiful Bollywood actress Madhubalahad acted in over 70 movies within her short lifetime. Starting as a child actress from a very early age, her fascinating face got featured in several movies from the role of a ghost to an independent-minded modern girl with no family bounds. Whether it was humor or sorrow or gay scene, Madhubala's charmingface had the capability of expressing it in the right sense. I used to watch her performance in the small screen when I was a child and have always loved her amazing dancing and act filled with emotions.

2. Dulari
Under the direction of Abdul Rasheed Kardar, movie Dulari got released in the same year when Madhubala was just 16. Naushadâs music direction was commendable. Madhubala as a gypsy girl named Dulari is the focus of the whole story. Her beauty fascinates two men and finally real love wins. The story discloses one more fact in the end; Dulari was not a gypsy, but the kidnapped child of a royal family. Madhubala enacted her role fabulously that made the movie another blockbuster.

This big budgeted film searched for some top notch actors of that period to render in lead roles.

Production of the movie was disrupted by communal interventions and bankruptcy. It took 10 years for the movie to complete and got released in 1960 because even a single sequence was more expensive than the entire budget of a typical film.
Indian classical and folk music also played an important role in delivering Mughal-e-Azam into a musically inspired movie. It contains 12 songs, voiced by playback singers Lata Mangeshkar and Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan.

Released in the same year 1960, this movie is regarded as the last movie dispensing celebrated stardom for Madhubala. Under the direction of P. L. Santoshi, Madhubala is cast against Bharat Bhushan. Shyama plays the role of the main character. Roshanâs music including many âqawwalisâ is one of his best that also adds charm to this movie.
Barsaat ki raat glorifies the lives of the singing girls often not regarded to be decent in Indian society. A love story cast parallel to the lives of strong female characters who are independent and choose their own loves and destiny is the core part of this movie.
