Madhubala actress

Madhubala the Venus of indian cinema in a rare color pic

A blog dedicated to the one and only Madhubala, the woman who stole everyones heart in the 1950's till her death in the 1960's. She'll never be forgotten. (sidebar gif made by me)

The larger than life journeys of the women who have ticked, provoked and inspired us in the last five decades

Recently this wonderful photo series has surfaced on the internet. i do not know the source of them. They show a young and relaxed Madhubala in some candid shots that i assume were taken at home. Judging from her looks and hairstyle i guess these are from around 1950 -51 which would make her about 17 - 18 years old. Not yet diagnosed with her heart condition, a succesful new star, nor any sign of the dissapointemnts in her private life that were to follow, she is radiant in these.
