well said I heard that too abt a famous actor forgetting his lines...he said so himself and said he was just in awe of her beauty that he just forgot everything...like aishwarya is said 2 b beautiful but see her without make up she seems an average girl...but madhubala was on another level...she was sum1 tht made u look at her twice without make up...that was a first.Originally posted by: Cutieee1992
People are actually saying Madhuala wasn't known for acting? Madhubala was a great actress as well, but her beauty was so much that it overshadowed her talent as per by critics at that time. A famous actor, forgot his name, even forgot his dialogues the first time he met her struck by her beauty and some journalist, who had seen her, had said if Madhubala was alive today, she would have give a run to actress like Madhuri and Ash. Even her debut I heard was a big success. Just because her beauty was too much to overshadow her talent doesn't mean to ignore her talent.
Today she is more remembered for her beauty than acting because for acting, there were other actress as great as her as well, but no one was ever as beautiful than her so in a way in looks she had been above all and was best remembered for. That doesn't mean she was great in acing; otherwise, she wouldn't have been always included in top actress and legends of 100 years of BW. She was an inspiration to Madhuri's dancing too. Go watch Pyar kiya.
Comparing KAT to Madhubala is like an insult to Madhubala. Even my fav actress can't be better than her. She was a legend. Be it beauty, dance, acting, she had it all, but too bad her personal life was mess.
