Aaahhhaaaa
Aiye mehrbaan
Baithiye Jane jaan

My god, I read that Madhubala was beautiful, but I didn't imagine that she was so precious. I love Asha Bhosle's voice. Greetings to whoever reads me, I am from Peru 🇵🇪

Anushka Sharma is a better actress than Madhubhala. Anushka Sharma is method actress. Anushka Sharma has intention to act natural in films.
@savitataank
@@flash-uj6lyhey flash, let me tell YOU that Madhubala is way better. Keep your opinions to yourself. Anushka Sharma is worse than Madhubala, in a lot of ways. The old films and songs from that era are way better than this era's. The actors and singers were way better and your face was too ugly to look at like today. Your opinion is disliked by many people in this world, fewer agree.
@xhunterx9034
@flash-uj6ly which is probably why Madhubala is the most iconic indian actress, known throughout the world for her Grace, charm and onscreen charisma. Pretty woman even had an article written about the fact the she was not even in Hollywood. Her autograohed photos went wild across he world, especially in the African Continent. Madhubala even had a song written about her in a foreign language. These modern actresses have nothing in comparison to stars such as Madhubala. Sure, you have thighs, breasts and a 9 inch waist, but can you do something memorable enough to go down in the world's History Books? Most certainly not!
@amitkrishnasarker
"Dekha machalke jidhar,bijli giradi udhar"... literally madhubala could that. ❤

Looking back I feel jealous of those who were there to see this most beautiful and telented lady afresh on the screens of Indian theatres as soon as the film was released. Alas I could only watch it after so many years of the event!
