Summary The Indian Marilyn Monroe, Madhubala, is still alive in the minds of film audiences even after 42 years of her death.
Starting her career in 1942 from ‘Basant’, she got unparalleled fame that her contemporary actresses could only dream of. From the beginning of her career she became producers’ favorite. She starred in many blockbuster movies, including Mughal-E-Azam, ‘Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi’ and Mumtaz Mahal. Sadly, at the later part of her career she was also labeled as box office poison. The Bollywood blue-eyed boy of his time, Dilip Kumar, too wanted to win her heart but she got hitched with Kishore Kumar. She passed away at the age of 36 on February 23, 1969.
