The film was in production for nearly 16 years and 2000 camels, 4000 horses and 8000 extras - some of them actual soldiers on loan from the Indian Army - were used in the battle scenes.
K.Asif was so passionate about this film, that shows in each and every frame. From Set to Costume, From Actors to Dialog. Its a classic, and no one ever able to create this magic.
The original movie released in 1960 was in Black & White.. they re-released the movie in Color in 2004. Mughal-e-Azam was the first black-and-white Hindi film to be digitally coloured and the first to be given a theatrical re-release
It was the first movie of any language to be digitally coloured and given a theatrical re-release. And the colour version also became one of the highest grossing films of that year. Also, it was the first movie I watched in theatre as a child.
That is Madhubala arguably the most beautiful actress to have ever graced the screen. That is Dilip Kumar the biggest actor India has seen. He inspired the likes of Amitabh Bachchan and SRK.
That is true!! Prithvi Raj Kapoor is the great grandfather of Ranbir Kapoor. Also, that actress Madhubala is one of the prettiest faces to ever exist and is often known as the Marylin Monroe of Bollywood.
@@anitak3985 She was a really good actress, but not that good to be termed as "powerhouse"... Meenakumari, Nargis, Nutan in that era were actually powerhouse actresses...
Can people stop using Hollywood artists as baseline and compare all other artists to them? It is very demeaning and old-school. Madhubala is unique in her own right, just as Waheeda Rehman, Smita Patil, Shabana Azmi, Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi, Vidya Balan, Tapsee Pannu. C'mon people, Hollywood step aside - there is no comparison.
Yes, Prithviraj Kapoor was the first big Kapoor in Bollywood. His son Raj Kapoor solidified the Kapoor empire, and continues to this day with Ranbir Kapoor
Don't forget Karishma Kapoor and then Kareena Kapoor. These two ladies kept the legacy going Ranbir came a lot later. And still if you'll ask anyone born in 90s, they'd be a fan of Karishma
Prithviraj Kapoor the legend , Dilip Kumar the legend, Madhubala the eternal beauty & a fine actress. The movie has some of the best dialogues of that era & the songs are brilliant.
Hey Hana..by any chance are u Japanese.. Coz if u are think of me squealing.. I love watching Japanese movies and have fallen in love with the language.. Love from India.
Madhubala, was a stage name. Her real name was mumtaz jahan..she was compared to marylin monroe in her times and did get Hollywood offers but refused...gorgeous lady amazing actress
Well, it was actually a Marathi guy called "Dadasaheb Phalke" who released the first ever full length movie in India. It was the 1913 silent film called "Raja Harishchandra"
Prithviraj Kapoor -> {Raj , Shashi , Shammi} -> {Rishi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor} -> {Ranbir Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, Karishma kapoor} .... 4th generation active now :).. I have just named few very important ones.. otherwise the list goes on of the actors from this Kapoor family. ;).
The Inspiration of Bhansali came from this movie. He has told many times how his father used to make him watch this again and again and learn the little details of good Direction. K Asif was the director of this movie....this movie had India's first coloured song ever.
Similarity is only period films and some grandeur. Mughle e Azam have amazing story telling style, great dialogues and some impeccable performance from the cast. Not to forget some memorable music. Bhansali is no K.ASIF.
Yes ...PrithviRaj Kapoor is the beginning of Kapoor clan..He had a first wife and kids in Pakistan ,who he left after partition and his current family is from his second wife...If u look at PrithviRaj's younger pics, you will see that he was outrageously good looking ..even Ranbir looks pale in comparison
True..I watched him as Alexander in a olden classic directed by Sohrab Modi...I missed a heartbeat whenever he came on screen...he was that handsome...
They shoot many reactions in a day and then they keep editing those videos and upload them regularly. I don't think their daily schedule will change much. You can identify which videos were shot on one day by their clothes and the record cover/Art kept on the left side behind Rick eg fiddler on the roof, Pink Floyd etc
Madhubala was famed across the world for her beauty and even received Hollywood offers which she refused as she came from an orthodox Muslim family. American media covered her extensively in documentaries and magazine articles back in the days
It is a classic B&W movie, the colours were added recently ... this movie is huge, it’s magnanimous... it’s Epic... you gotta watch it if you really want to understand Indian Cinema and also peep into history... of India’s and Cinema’s ...
The guy playing Emperor Akbar (old guy with long white moustache, Prithviraj Kapoor) is the great grandfather of Ranbir Kapoor. And Rick is right, Sartaj (Saif Ali Khan) is actually royalty. He is from the royal family of Pataudi, a small province in Haryana and his ancestors were rulers there before the British came to India.
Rick my friend u were right when u said that Madhubala resembles some Bengali actress (or the other way round). Suchitra Sen (Bengali movie legend) did had a bit of resemblance with Madhubala. Good job pal. 👍👍👌👌
Sudhar Jaa.. Gaana achha hai but what's so special about the video of that song? Hrithik fighting? lol.. there are more songs of Shri Ganesha which are actually good.. suggest something where cinematography is actually worth watching
Finally you guys watched it after 2 months of me recommending it. This movie is is "gone with the wind" level. And yes Sanjay Leela Bhansali was indeed inspired by it. The song in bajirao mastani called "deewani mastani" was almost fully inspired a song in this movie called "jab pyar kiya to darna kia" (you guys reacted to both the songs) Both the leads in this movie are absolute legends with the actor Dilip Kumar being an absolute inspiration for modern greats like Amitabh Bachan.
Yes prithviraj kapoor was the beginner & his grandchildrenbs are karishma kapoor then her sister kareena kapoor then his cousin brother ranbir kapoor... & yes rick kareena's husband saif is truly real royalty 😊😊😊
Rick and Corbin Singh, So glad you are reacting to this trailer. Thank You both. Yes, this is one of the great films of India. In reading about it I think you will find what a tremendous passion this film was for the director. The Emperor is Akhbar, also presented in his youth in the much later movie Jodha Akhbar. He was known for his love of art and culture, as well as his tolerance for other religions, unlike several of his descendant kings. There is a small tower in his palace where, high above the ground, there is a circular platform ringed inside with a plus sign shaped path that goes across it. His advisors sat around him while he paced back and forth between them as they spoke on various philosophies. Since he was illiterate, like most royalty of that time around the world (reading and writing was not considered fit schooling for warriors), he relied on these advisors from several religions, including Christianity. He married a Hindu princess, Jodha, to stop a potential war and ended up falling in love with her. He, as a Muslim king, freaked out a lot of his family and subjects by building a Hindu temple for her within the castle walls. "Disillusioned with orthodox Islam and perhaps hoping to bring about religious unity within his empire, Akbar promulgated Din-i-Ilahi, a syncretic creed derived mainly from Islam and Hinduism as well as some parts of Zoroastrianism and Christianity." Please note: In some Indian cultures the king went to war, but not until his wife, the queen, presented him with his sword, her wishes for his victory, and her prayers and blessings. Please watch this movie, in the original black and white, and give us a review. Thank You.
Commendable work by the maker really🙏🙏👏👏 All three are the super legends of India cinema ❤️prithviraj kapoor ji , madhubala ji and dilip ji❤️ just great respect and love for them.
This was an classic superhit black and white movie. It had been colourised later.. So you are watching the colourised version not the original black&white movie.. But this movie is beautiful 👌❤️
So you finally came face to face with this legendary movie, including greatest actors from bollywood and our very own Madhubala A.K.A Marilyn Monroe of Bollywood.
Yes he's the head of the Kapoor of Kapoor family in hindi films (also Ranbir Kapoor's grandfather) and there was no CGI back then. Over 8,000 soldiers of Indian Army participated for the action scene.
Mughal-e-Azam is not one of those movies which are golden in the past and cringe in the present. This movie isn't cringe now but still amazing and nostalgic, and it will stay the same 50 years later
Rick will enjoy this: Prithviraj Kapoor was also theatre royalty. His collabs with Shakespeareana, later his son Shashi Kapoor took up that mantle and Shashi's and Jennifer Kendall's daughter built Mumbai's most well known theatre Prithvi Theatre.
This is the remastered colour version DVD trailer released few years ago. The original version is of course B/W and yes almost everyone including Bhansali in India had seen it along with Sholay as well.
The camera work, direction, editing, storytelling, acting, dialogues (learn Hindi/Urdu) of this movie stands proudly amongst best of cinema.. in India and worldwide.
You guys went to watch the match and still our regular videos are here. You are so damn working hard. You can't even imagine how much we love your sincerity, hard work, your videos and above all the persons you both are. Love you sooooooooo much.
Thanks so much finally for reacting to the trailer of this 1960s MASTERPIECE MOVIE. I just want to let you know Ben Hur and The Ten Commandments are still my ALL TIME FAVORITES. even my dada enjoys watching these movies over and over again!!! OLD IS ALWAYS GOLD!! Madhubala is not bengali. She was the beauty queen way before the stupidass Aishwarya Rai. she still is immortal!! Prithviraj kapoor was a great actor and so was his son and grandsons!!!!The prince is Dilip Kumar one more great actor. He has also delivered many great blockbusters!! Please react to trailers of the following handpicked old vintage classic bollywood movies such as: Deewaar 1975 Mother India 1957 Naya Daur 1957 Pakeezah 1972 Kala Patthar 1979 Pyaasa 1957 Awaara 1951 Guide 1965
@First name Last name I agree with u that beauty is subjective...which is why I said "considered" I consider Nutan beautiful but it's a fact that Madhubala is officially considered the most beautiful Indian actress of all time.
@First name Last name I have not contradicted anything..There is something called media and that media -print, television etc have always called her te most beautiful Indian actress of all time..You have been living under a rock.. It's the same as in the modern age when everyone called the Aishwarya the most beautiful woman and I never agreed...but I will still have to acknowledge that she was considered the most beautiful ! I never found Katrina attractive ,people did !
The actress in the movie Madhubala is popularly called the Marylin Monroe of India. If you google her you'll find that in many ways her life was quite similar to Monroe. They were both beautiful, they both had a tragic love life, they were immensely popular during their times and they both died at age 36 during the 60's decade. I'm sure there would be more similarities if we looked for it ❤
Here are a few mind-boggling facts about the film which show how much effort, love and care went into making this magnum opus. 1) The film was in production for nearly 16 years (longest in Bollywood ever). 2) Produced at a cost of Rs 1.5 crore (in the 1950s), it left producer Shapoorji Pallonji nearly bankrupt 3) 'Ae Mohabbat Zindabad' had Mohammed Rafi accompanied by 100 real backup singers, for chorus. 4) The Sheesh Mahal took 2 years to build, with glass imported from Belgium. The set built for the iconic song Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya was conceptualised as a replica of the Lahore Fort, by Art director M K Syed. It cost nearly Rs 15 lakhs (or 10% of the budget) to build the set. It took six weeks to only erect the set at Mohan Studios, and after the shooting took place the set wasn't taken apart for 6 months as the public were allowed to pay a visit. 5) Naushad and lyricist Shakun Badayuni wrote 110 drafts of Song 'Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya' , before they were finally happy with a version. 6)Legend has it that Bade Ghulam Ali Khansahab didn't want to sing for films, since they were seen as a lesser form of art. To ensure that the legendary classical singer makes his Bollywood debut by singing the song meant for Tansen, K Asif offered him Rs 25,000 as remuneration. In a time when star singers like Lata Mangeshkar made a reported Rs 300-400 per song, the singer couldn't say no to such an exorbitant fee. 7)The battle scene featured some real soldiers of the Indian Army, to make it look more authentic 8) Director Asif shot and reshot the film obsessively, and the final edit was found from 3 million feet of negative.
There was no CGI back then and this movie is the most legendary classical movie of India till date, the acting of all legendary actors in this movie is praised all over the world whoever has seen this movie.
Mughal E Azam is on RUclips to watch with English subtitles in color and black and white. Other old movies you have to watch is Amar Prem, Anand, Lamhe, and Bobby. You can react to some songs from them since they won't have trailers
Yes Madhubala..she is considered as the marilyn monroe of bollywood..she had so much similarly like Marilyn Monroe..She is also considered as the most beautiful actress to have ever graced in bollywood..it is also said that the camera was not Fully capable of capturing her beauty in her movies.. Watch "AAYEYE MEHERBA" song to understand her similarity with Marilyn Monroe..it was also said that the famous pose of that Marilyn Monroe did(rick u knew about it i think)it was actually Madhubala who did it first..but obviously world credits only Marilyn Monroe for it
Madhubala was a Muslim actress of royal blood whose real was Mumtaz Jehan Begum Delhavi. This movie was a true documentary based on the life of Muslim Emperor Akbar and his son who fell in love with a slave girl/maid named Anarkali.
I Don't understand why people say only about ranbir kapoor... Kareena & karishma kapoor r first of this generation of kapoor family...they continued the legacy & kareena is still remain a main steam actor.. They're also prithviraj kapoors grandchildren 😐😐😐
The actor is the legendary Dilip Kumar, the man who played Devdas in the second remake. He was the Big B of the Black & White era. Big B was inspired by him and based his acting off of him. The actress is Madhubala, an Indian legend like Marilyn Monroe, and equally tragic. She caught the attention of Hollywood at the time with her beauty and a TIME photographer traveled to India to do a profile on her. Her and Dilip Kumar were actually in love. She was a beautiful soul who tragically died young.
The whole movie was in black and white but when they were shooting the songs, only the song "jab pyar kiya" was shot in colour camera because the technology came just at that time. So it was the first coloured scenes of Indian cinema!!! Hence it became a legendary movie.
Yes you are right Sanjay Leela Bhansali is highly inspired by this movie. He admitted that in a interview with Anupama Chopra where he said he visited the set of Mughal-e-ajam when he was a kid along with his father and was mesmerized by it.
Prithvi Raj Kapoor is the great grand-father of Ranbir Kapoor. He introduced feature films in India for the first time. The actor in this movie 'Dilip Kumar' is a living legend, aged 96 years and is worshiped and honored by the actors in this era. Rick got it right about madhubala.
Omg this is one of my all time favourite movies. My father had the whole movie on cassettes - for the dialogue. Me and my sister know each line by heart. Because Dad would play it over and over. I remember this movie fondly in black and white and when it was rereleased in colour - omg it was an experience! Sold out everywhere. Brilliant brilliant brilliant. Do watch it. Please please please.
Mughals was an overrated Empire hyped only by Historians... Marathas had won back most of Central India and the British actually had to win control of India fighting the Rajputs and Marathas not the Mughals...
@@kanikasharma007 They had control only over the few regions surrounding Delhi The rest was won back by the Marathas.... The British Historians didn't wanna acknowledge this and hence created this Fake Narrative about the Mughals....
This actress is Pathan, from the Pukhtunwa region of modern-day Pakistan. Prior to India’s independence, Madhubala’s family moved from northwest British India to Bombay in order for Madhubala to pursue films--as her family was poor and they needed an income. She is considered one of the best Indian actresses of all time.
Some clarifications here. Prithviraj Kapoor is the great grand father of Ranbir, Kareena and Karisma, the first of the Kapoor clan (along with his cousin Trilok Kapoor). Prithviraj was a stage actor and hsi legacy was carried forward by his son Shashi Kapoor who set up the Prithvi Theatre which thrives to this day. The actress MADHUBALA is still considered as one of the prettiest and finest actresses of all time. Her ravishing smile is considered as one of the most endearing moments on celluloid. Her family originally hailed from present day Afghanistan while Dilip Kumar (Yusuf Khan, real name) The prince is played by Dilip Kumar. He is an iconic figure (now in his 90s), and considered as one of the finest ever. Some other performances are also remarkable. Sanjay Leela Bhansali is on record stating that Mughal -e-Azam (the greatest among Moguls - Emperor Akbar) was the inspiration to make Bajirao Mastani, and the Sheesh-Mahal (Glass Palace) was also an inspiration. The Director K Asif took 16 years to make the movie. The expences overshot the budget by a wide margin, and just to complete the film Shapoorji Pallonji (the owners of the TATA Grooup) financed the Director. Mughal-e Azam is considered to be a true story by many it actually isn't. It is a fiction. There is an 'Anarkali grave in Lahore, Pakistan,a nd there is also a bazaar named after Anarkali but this character had no historical relevance (except, probably, that Anarkali was a concubine in the court of Emperor Akbar. This movie is worth watching.....
Pakeezah movie songs plz...it's the most iconic movie in Bollywood Inhi logon ne Chalte chalte Thade rahiyo o banke Yaar re' The best songs of all time and all sung by Lata Mangeshkar!!
Yes indeed! *Prithviraj Kapoor* was the first Kapoor, his sons were *Raj Kapoor* *Shammi Kapoor* *Shashi Kapoor* Raj Kapoor's sons were *Randeer Kapoor* *Rishi Kapoor* *Rajeev Kapoor* Randheer Kapoor's daughters are *Karishma Kapoor* and *Kareena Kapoor* later is the wife of *Sartaj* aka Saif Ali Khan. Rishi Kapoor's son is *Ranbir Kapoor*
You got it right for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's inspiration. he has mentioned that in his interviews. Just a little detail - this movie became the greatest hit of that time. Madhubala was considered as one of the best actress for her acting and expressions. on opposite side the Hero in this movie - Dilip Kumar is considered as one of the best actor in world cinema, not just Indian. He got guiness book of world record for maximum number of awards. He started so called real emotion portray acting (it is called something I forgot). Every single person in this movie is a legend.
Actors were known to have forgotten their lines each time they saw madhubala's face.. She was one of the most beautiful actresses to have ever graced the screens..her life can even be turned into a movie of its own.. Also little known fact she and dilip Kumar were in love with each other for some time during the shoot of the movie.. And it took years and years for this movie to be shot.. I believe 10 years but I could be wrong in that regard.... Love love love
"Raja Harishchandra" is First movie in india which is made by father of indian cinema ' Mr. Dada Saheb Falake' . Their is a marathi movie named 'Harishchandrachi Factory' which has story about 'how that first movie was made'. So watch that movie "'Harishchandrachi Factory'
Yes prithvirajkapoor is the starting of Kapoor's in Bollywood. Mostly all of Kapoor's are his children grandchildren etc...other than one or two like Shahid Kapoor. Also, Sartaj really is Royalty. His name is Saif Ali Khan and his father was a Nawab. After his father passed away now he is Nawab of Pataudi.
Just to give you perspective, Prithvi Raj Kapoor was first generation of Kapoor clan. He was great grandfather of Kareena Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor, grandfather of Rishi Kapoor and father of Raj Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor and Shashi Kapoor.
Mughal-a-azam the greatest movie of Bollywood... Madhubala is the most beautiful actress in Bollywood.... Dilip Kumar is real king of Bollywood (Inspiration all Bollywood stars BigB 2 SRK) So stupid watched it...😂😂😂
Madhubala- Known as the Marilyn Monroe of India, died at the same age as Marilyn! Had similar beauty traits, both had multiple partners and both of them had a tragic life and ending! If you see Madhubala’s pictures on google, you will see the similarity!!
The man who plays prince Salim is Mr . YOUSUF KHAN who chose the stage name as Dilip Kumar. He ws arguably the person who excelled in method acting. Presumeably he ws the inventor of method school of acting in bollywood. He inspired Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. Madhu bala's original name ws "Mumtaz Jahan Begum Dehlvi" she is the most beautifull women in the world in her times. Period..... It took K. Asif 16 years of his life. 16 long years of persuing his passion to make this Mgnum Opus.... Yes Mr. Prithvi raj kapoor ws the original Kapoor who started the kapoor clan in bollywood. Dilip kumar's family and Prithviraj kapoor's family ws from Peshawar(undivided India) now in Pakistan. They came to Bombay after partition. Father of Dilip kumar and Prithviraj kapoor were friends. Lots of people donno bout that... Originally Mughal e azam ws a Black n white movie partially coloured. But recently ws digitalised and re released. This is the most absolute classic cinema of bollywood even classical than Sholay. Amitabh Bachchan himself once said that he get inspired even today by watching all the actors in it and the direction the cinematography and the dialogues in the film, he said no one can call himself an actor if he says he didn't watch this film. The shear amount of time it took to make this magnificent piece of art that inspired the generations and will inspire the generations to come... I will recommend both of u guys to go and purchase a DVD and watch this film coz u will get ur Jaws drop to the ground when u see the shots and hear thetdialogue deilvery in the film and the era when India ws ruled by this mughal emperor known as Akbar the great and his only son Salim who later became ttheemporer Jahangir. The film is based upon the true legends. And the story of Anarkali the role played by the gorgeous Madhu bala is some will say the true story. So as the legend goes....

Sartaj was royalty. His father was also a great cricket player. One of the greatest Captains of the Indian team.
It was not only a classic but a mega movie...magnum opus made without VFX.
@Sandeep Mehta Asoka?..SRK's Asoka?.... that was shit...a real shit.
This is a classic movie what are you talking about?
This video was uploaded on 5 Aug 2019 (IST) and co incidentally Mughal E Azam released on 5 Aug 1960

You can identify which videos were shot on one day by their clothes and the record cover/Art kept on the left side behind Rick eg fiddler on the roof, Pink Floyd etc
Mughal-e-Azam is the highest-grossing Indian film of all times (adjusted for inflation)...
This is basically India's Gone With the Wind....minus the outdated racist stereotypes
No. Its India's Ben-Hur
Madhubala was famed across the world for her beauty and even received Hollywood offers which she refused as she came from an orthodox Muslim family.
American media covered her extensively in documentaries and magazine articles back in the days
Is it an indian film???!!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩 really!!!!!.....ommmmggggg it's so so great
Dilip Kumar is a 100000 times more handsome than Nawaz....
Hahaha🤣🤣🤣 right
It is a classic B&W movie, the colours were added recently ... this movie is huge, it’s magnanimous... it’s Epic... you gotta watch it if you really want to understand Indian Cinema and also peep into history... of India’s and Cinema’s ...
The guy playing Emperor Akbar (old guy with long white moustache, Prithviraj Kapoor) is the great grandfather of Ranbir Kapoor. And Rick is right, Sartaj (Saif Ali Khan) is actually royalty. He is from the royal family of Pataudi, a small province in Haryana and his ancestors were rulers there before the British came to India.
Yes, Sanjay Leela Bhansali was inspired from Mughal-E-Azam
The actor who played the Mughal Emperor in this was Ranbir Kapoor 's (Sanju,Barfi) great grandfather
You forgot alien no. two and big B's body double...
Dilip kUMAR IS THE ACTUAL DANIEL DAY LEWIS OF INDIAN CINEMA. HE WAS KNOWN AS TRAGEDY KING.
He started acting lot before ddl. So the comparison must be reverse
Rick my friend u were right when u said that Madhubala resembles some Bengali actress (or the other way round). Suchitra Sen (Bengali movie legend) did had a bit of resemblance with Madhubala. Good job pal. 👍👍👌👌
How i dont think he resembles suchitra sen.kya kuch v lol

Sudhar Jaa.. Gaana achha hai but what's so special about the video of that song? Hrithik fighting? lol.. there are more songs of Shri Ganesha which are actually good.. suggest something where cinematography is actually worth watching
@@manisshh u only suggest.. these people watch movie songs primarily
what is the use of foreign Christian's reaction to ganesh bagwaan's song, will it make any difference to us
@@SaiN9860 these people show interest in Indian culture so
This is the Indian romeo juliet. madhubala is considered as the most beautiful actress in Indian history like marilyn monroe for hollywood.
Finally you guys watched it after 2 months of me recommending it. This movie is is "gone with the wind" level. And yes Sanjay Leela Bhansali was indeed inspired by it. The song in bajirao mastani called "deewani mastani" was almost fully inspired a song in this movie called "jab pyar kiya to darna kia" (you guys reacted to both the songs) Both the leads in this movie are absolute legends with the actor Dilip Kumar being an absolute inspiration for modern greats like Amitabh Bachan.
Yes prithviraj kapoor was the beginner & his grandchildrenbs are karishma kapoor then her sister kareena kapoor then his cousin brother ranbir kapoor... & yes rick kareena's husband saif is truly real royalty 😊😊😊
Rick and Corbin Singh,
So glad you are reacting to this trailer. Thank You both. Yes, this is one of the great films of India. In reading about it I think you will find what a tremendous passion this film was for the director.
The Emperor is Akhbar, also presented in his youth in the much later movie Jodha Akhbar. He was known for his love of art and culture, as well as his tolerance for other religions, unlike several of his descendant kings.
There is a small tower in his palace where, high above the ground, there is a circular platform ringed inside with a plus sign shaped path that goes across it. His advisors sat around him while he paced back and forth between them as they spoke on various philosophies. Since he was illiterate, like most royalty of that time around the world (reading and writing was not considered fit schooling for warriors), he relied on these advisors from several religions, including Christianity.
He married a Hindu princess, Jodha, to stop a potential war and ended up falling in love with her. He, as a Muslim king, freaked out a lot of his family and subjects by building a Hindu temple for her within the castle walls.
"Disillusioned with orthodox Islam and perhaps hoping to bring about religious unity within his empire, Akbar promulgated Din-i-Ilahi, a syncretic creed derived mainly from Islam and Hinduism as well as some parts of Zoroastrianism and Christianity."
Please note: In some Indian cultures the king went to war, but not until his wife, the queen, presented him with his sword, her wishes for his victory, and her prayers and blessings.
Please watch this movie, in the original black and white, and give us a review. Thank You.
Its a trailer for the DVD release. It was originally a black and white film and re-released in colour.
Commendable work by the maker really🙏🙏👏👏
All three are the super legends of India cinema
❤️prithviraj kapoor ji , madhubala ji and dilip ji❤️ just great respect and love for them.
This was an classic superhit black and white movie. It had been colourised later.. So you are watching the colourised version not the original black&white movie.. But this movie is beautiful 👌❤️
So you finally came face to face with this legendary movie, including greatest actors from bollywood and our very own Madhubala A.K.A Marilyn Monroe of Bollywood.
Well you know as a matter of fact Sartaj( Saif Ali Khan) is a Royalty in real life. 😁
Well actually Sartaj aka Saif Ali Khan is a royalty...
Is the The Nawab of Pataudi...
If you gonna review Indian classics...
You should start with Satyajit Ray's "Apu Trilogy"
They already did it
Yes he's the head of the Kapoor of Kapoor family in hindi films (also Ranbir Kapoor's grandfather) and there was no CGI back then. Over 8,000 soldiers of Indian Army participated for the action scene.
Mughal-e-Azam is not one of those movies which are golden in the past and cringe in the present. This movie isn't cringe now but still amazing and nostalgic, and it will stay the same 50 years later
How was the match experience in Florida????
It was released on 5th August 😲😲😲😲, you did reaction today intentionally or coincidence ???
Rick will enjoy this: Prithviraj Kapoor was also theatre royalty. His collabs with Shakespeareana, later his son Shashi Kapoor took up that mantle and Shashi's and Jennifer Kendall's daughter built Mumbai's most well known theatre Prithvi Theatre.
Yes you know Sartaj is royalty 😂😀
This is the remastered colour version DVD trailer released few years ago. The original version is of course B/W and yes almost everyone including Bhansali in India had seen it along with Sholay as well.
The camera work, direction, editing, storytelling, acting, dialogues (learn Hindi/Urdu) of this movie stands proudly amongst best of cinema.. in India and worldwide.
You guys went to watch the match and still our regular videos are here. You are so damn working hard. You can't even imagine how much we love your sincerity, hard work, your videos and above all the persons you both are. Love you sooooooooo much.
Thanks so much finally for reacting to the trailer of this 1960s MASTERPIECE MOVIE. I just want to let you know Ben Hur and The Ten Commandments are still my ALL TIME FAVORITES. even my dada enjoys watching these movies over and over again!!! OLD IS ALWAYS GOLD!!
Madhubala is not bengali. She was the beauty queen way before the stupidass Aishwarya Rai. she still is immortal!! Prithviraj kapoor was a great actor and so was his son and grandsons!!!!The prince is Dilip Kumar one more great actor. He has also delivered many great blockbusters!!
Please react to trailers of the following handpicked old vintage classic bollywood movies such as:
Deewaar 1975
Mother India 1957
Naya Daur 1957
Pakeezah 1972
Kala Patthar 1979
Pyaasa 1957
Awaara 1951
Guide 1965
Aditya Challa Why the disrespect towards Aishwarya Rai? She is amazing too. She is the one who mainstreamed Bollywood into western consciousness.
@@globalcitizenn I'm sorry :)
She is not Bengali...she is considered the most beautiful Indian actress of all time..Madhuri Dixit comes a close second
@First name Last name I agree with u that beauty is subjective...which is why I said "considered"
I consider Nutan beautiful but it's a fact that Madhubala is officially considered the most beautiful Indian actress of all time.
@First name Last name I have not contradicted anything..There is something called media and that media -print, television etc have always called her te most beautiful Indian actress of all time..You have been living under a rock..
It's the same as in the modern age when everyone called the Aishwarya the most beautiful woman and I never agreed...but I will still have to acknowledge that she was considered the most beautiful ! I never found Katrina attractive ,people did !
The actress in the movie Madhubala is popularly called the Marylin Monroe of India. If you google her you'll find that in many ways her life was quite similar to Monroe. They were both beautiful, they both had a tragic love life, they were immensely popular during their times and they both died at age 36 during the 60's decade. I'm sure there would be more similarities if we looked for it ❤
Epicness+ beauty +drama= mughal e azam😍😍😍
Madhubala is the marilyn Monroe of india 😍
Here are a few mind-boggling facts about the film which show how much effort, love and care went into making this magnum opus.
1) The film was in production for nearly 16 years (longest in Bollywood ever).
2) Produced at a cost of Rs 1.5 crore (in the 1950s), it left producer Shapoorji Pallonji nearly bankrupt
3) 'Ae Mohabbat Zindabad' had Mohammed Rafi accompanied by 100 real backup singers, for chorus.
4) The Sheesh Mahal took 2 years to build, with glass imported from Belgium.
The set built for the iconic song Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya was conceptualised as a replica of the Lahore Fort, by Art director M K Syed. It cost nearly Rs 15 lakhs (or 10% of the budget) to build the set. It took six weeks to only erect the set at Mohan Studios, and after the shooting took place the set wasn't taken apart for 6 months as the public were allowed to pay a visit.
5) Naushad and lyricist Shakun Badayuni wrote 110 drafts of Song 'Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya' , before they were finally happy with a version.
6)Legend has it that Bade Ghulam Ali Khansahab didn't want to sing for films, since they were seen as a lesser form of art. To ensure that the legendary classical singer makes his Bollywood debut by singing the song meant for Tansen, K Asif offered him Rs 25,000 as remuneration. In a time when star singers like Lata Mangeshkar made a reported Rs 300-400 per song, the singer couldn't say no to such an exorbitant fee.
7)The battle scene featured some real soldiers of the Indian Army, to make it look more authentic
8) Director Asif shot and reshot the film obsessively, and the final edit was found from 3 million feet of negative.
Your comment really deserves more likes.
There was no CGI back then and this movie is the most legendary classical movie of India till date, the acting of all legendary actors in this movie is praised all over the world whoever has seen this movie.
Today's actresses are lucky to not share the time of Madhubala's. Most would be either jobless or work on saas bahu serials. Lol.
Mughal E Azam is on RUclips to watch with English subtitles in color and black and white. Other old movies you have to watch is Amar Prem, Anand, Lamhe, and Bobby. You can react to some songs from them since they won't have trailers
if you talk about commercial classic you will have to watch Mother India - It was nominated in Oscars as well and lost marginally by few votes
Yes Madhubala..she is considered as the marilyn monroe of bollywood..she had so much similarly like Marilyn Monroe..She is also considered as the most beautiful actress to have ever graced in bollywood..it is also said that the camera was not Fully capable of capturing her beauty in her movies..
Watch "AAYEYE MEHERBA" song to understand her similarity with Marilyn Monroe..it was also said that the famous pose of that Marilyn Monroe did(rick u knew about it i think)it was actually Madhubala who did it first..but obviously world credits only Marilyn Monroe for it
React to songs of the movie'Pakeezah' that was released in 1971
You may start with reacting for the song ' Chalte chalte'
The comparable movie to this is probably Gone With The Wind...
This is one of the magnum opus of Bollywood......
♥️♥️
It's a great movie in Indian Cinema have watched thrice and the dialogues and lines of this movie is just wow💛💜
More than Ten Commandments.. I love Benhur. The Chariot scene OMG.
Watch “mohe rang do lal” from Bajirao Mastani and “mohe panghat pe” from Mughal-e-Azam side by side. You will know!
Madhubala is a legendary actress. One of my favorite 😍 she was fabulous and extremely beautiful ❤
Madhubala was a Muslim actress of royal blood whose real was Mumtaz Jehan Begum Delhavi. This movie was a true documentary based on the life of Muslim Emperor Akbar and his son who fell in love with a slave girl/maid named Anarkali.
I Don't understand why people say only about ranbir kapoor... Kareena & karishma kapoor r first of this generation of kapoor family...they continued the legacy & kareena is still remain a main steam actor.. They're also prithviraj kapoors grandchildren 😐😐😐
The actor is the legendary Dilip Kumar, the man who played Devdas in the second remake. He was the Big B of the Black & White era. Big B was inspired by him and based his acting off of him. The actress is Madhubala, an Indian legend like Marilyn Monroe, and equally tragic. She caught the attention of Hollywood at the time with her beauty and a TIME photographer traveled to India to do a profile on her. Her and Dilip Kumar were actually in love. She was a beautiful soul who tragically died young.
MOTHER INDIA please react to this great movie
The whole movie was in black and white but when they were shooting the songs, only the song "jab pyar kiya" was shot in colour camera because the technology came just at that time. So it was the first coloured scenes of Indian cinema!!! Hence it became a legendary movie.
This is in the category of Ten Commandments and Ben Hur in its epic scale..GRAND.
Yes you are right Sanjay Leela Bhansali is highly inspired by this movie. He admitted that in a interview with Anupama Chopra where he said he visited the set of Mughal-e-ajam when he was a kid along with his father and was mesmerized by it.
Guys react to a 90s song called "Made in India"
Prithvi Raj Kapoor is the great grand-father of Ranbir Kapoor. He introduced feature films in India for the first time. The actor in this movie 'Dilip Kumar' is a living legend, aged 96 years and is worshiped and honored by the actors in this era. Rick got it right about madhubala.
YAD LAGLA SONG..SAIRAT MOVIE...pleeeezzzz 🙏🙏🙏
When we say Media "Mughal" .. "Mughal" Represents these kings ..
Omg this is one of my all time favourite movies. My father had the whole movie on cassettes - for the dialogue. Me and my sister know each line by heart. Because Dad would play it over and over. I remember this movie fondly in black and white and when it was rereleased in colour - omg it was an experience! Sold out everywhere. Brilliant brilliant brilliant. Do watch it. Please please please.
So Average American didn't even know about MUGHALS EMPIRE wow.
Mughals was an overrated Empire hyped only by Historians...
Marathas had won back most of Central India and the British actually had to win control of India fighting the Rajputs and Marathas not the Mughals...
@@rahulray9983 Doesnt undermine the fact that they were real power for like 500 years.
@@kanikasharma007
They had control only over the few regions surrounding Delhi
The rest was won back by the Marathas....
The British Historians didn't wanna acknowledge this and hence created this Fake Narrative about the Mughals....
dilip kumar is the no 1 actor in bollywood till date..
.big b, srk all copy of him..
@sam peres and just like that you won.
This actress is Pathan, from the Pukhtunwa region of modern-day Pakistan. Prior to India’s independence, Madhubala’s family moved from northwest British India to Bombay in order for Madhubala to pursue films--as her family was poor and they needed an income. She is considered one of the best Indian actresses of all time.
Some clarifications here. Prithviraj Kapoor is the great grand father of Ranbir, Kareena and Karisma, the first of the Kapoor clan (along with his cousin Trilok Kapoor). Prithviraj was a stage actor and hsi legacy was carried forward by his son Shashi Kapoor who set up the Prithvi Theatre which thrives to this day.
The actress MADHUBALA is still considered as one of the prettiest and finest actresses of all time. Her ravishing smile is considered as one of the most endearing moments on celluloid. Her family originally hailed from present day Afghanistan while Dilip Kumar (Yusuf Khan, real name)
The prince is played by Dilip Kumar. He is an iconic figure (now in his 90s), and considered as one of the finest ever. Some other performances are also remarkable.
Sanjay Leela Bhansali is on record stating that Mughal -e-Azam (the greatest among Moguls - Emperor Akbar) was the inspiration to make Bajirao Mastani, and the Sheesh-Mahal (Glass Palace) was also an inspiration.
The Director K Asif took 16 years to make the movie. The expences overshot the budget by a wide margin, and just to complete the film Shapoorji Pallonji (the owners of the TATA Grooup) financed the Director.
Mughal-e Azam is considered to be a true story by many it actually isn't. It is a fiction.
There is an 'Anarkali grave in Lahore, Pakistan,a nd there is also a bazaar named after Anarkali but this character had no historical relevance (except, probably, that Anarkali was a concubine in the court of Emperor Akbar.
This movie is worth watching.....
Pakeezah movie songs plz...it's the most iconic movie in Bollywood
Inhi logon ne
Chalte chalte
Thade rahiyo o banke Yaar re'
The best songs of all time and all sung by Lata Mangeshkar!!
Yes indeed!
*Prithviraj Kapoor* was the first Kapoor, his sons were *Raj Kapoor* *Shammi Kapoor* *Shashi Kapoor*
Raj Kapoor's sons were *Randeer Kapoor* *Rishi Kapoor* *Rajeev Kapoor*
Randheer Kapoor's daughters are *Karishma Kapoor* and *Kareena Kapoor* later is the wife of *Sartaj* aka Saif Ali Khan.
Rishi Kapoor's son is *Ranbir Kapoor*
RANBIR KAPOOR'S Great Grandfather is the EMPEROR🤩🙏❤️👍
One great, not two.
@@sunbong_rulez edited that bro🤘
React to super hit film sholay one song mehbooba mehbooba from 1975
This film was originally in black and white but was re released colourised with a newly recorded soundtrack a few years back.
You got it right for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's inspiration. he has mentioned that in his interviews. Just a little detail - this movie became the greatest hit of that time. Madhubala was considered as one of the best actress for her acting and expressions. on opposite side the Hero in this movie - Dilip Kumar is considered as one of the best actor in world cinema, not just Indian. He got guiness book of world record for maximum number of awards. He started so called real emotion portray acting (it is called something I forgot). Every single person in this movie is a legend.
Actors were known to have forgotten their lines each time they saw madhubala's face.. She was one of the most beautiful actresses to have ever graced the screens..her life can even be turned into a movie of its own.. Also little known fact she and dilip Kumar were in love with each other for some time during the shoot of the movie.. And it took years and years for this movie to be shot.. I believe 10 years but I could be wrong in that regard.... Love love love
Two of the giants of Indian cinema Mr Pritiviraj Kapoor and Mr Dilip Kumar and the fascinating beauty of Madhubala.
An all time classic
Guys, Sartaj is an actual Indian prince. He is the Nawab(Prince) of Pataudi, the heir to the former princely state of Pataudi in North India.
"Raja Harishchandra" is First movie in india which is made by father of indian cinema ' Mr. Dada Saheb Falake' .
Their is a marathi movie named 'Harishchandrachi Factory' which has story about 'how that first movie was made'.
So watch that movie "'Harishchandrachi Factory'
Plz react to 'Harishchandrachi factory' (Marathi movie) is is the story of first film in India ❤
I am requesting that for ages now 😅
Yes prithvirajkapoor is the starting of Kapoor's in Bollywood. Mostly all of Kapoor's are his children grandchildren etc...other than one or two like Shahid Kapoor. Also, Sartaj really is Royalty. His name is Saif Ali Khan and his father was a Nawab. After his father passed away now he is Nawab of Pataudi.
Just to give you perspective, Prithvi Raj Kapoor was first generation of Kapoor clan. He was great grandfather of Kareena Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor, grandfather of Rishi Kapoor and father of Raj Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor and Shashi Kapoor.
Mughal-a-azam the greatest movie of Bollywood...
Madhubala is the most beautiful actress in Bollywood....
Dilip Kumar is real king of Bollywood (Inspiration all Bollywood stars BigB 2 SRK)
So stupid watched it...😂😂😂
Madhubala- Known as the Marilyn Monroe of India, died at the same age as Marilyn! Had similar beauty traits, both had multiple partners and both of them had a tragic life and ending! If you see Madhubala’s pictures on google, you will see the similarity!!
The man who plays prince Salim is Mr . YOUSUF KHAN who chose the stage name as Dilip Kumar. He ws arguably the person who excelled in method acting. Presumeably he ws the inventor of method school of acting in bollywood. He inspired Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan.
Madhu bala's original name ws "Mumtaz Jahan Begum Dehlvi" she is the most beautifull women in the world in her times. Period.....
It took K. Asif 16 years of his life. 16 long years of persuing his passion to make this Mgnum Opus....
Yes Mr. Prithvi raj kapoor ws the original Kapoor who started the kapoor clan in bollywood.
Dilip kumar's family and Prithviraj kapoor's family ws from Peshawar(undivided India) now in Pakistan. They came to Bombay after partition. Father of Dilip kumar and Prithviraj kapoor were friends. Lots of people donno bout that...
Originally Mughal e azam ws a Black n white movie partially coloured. But recently ws digitalised and re released. This is the most absolute classic cinema of bollywood even classical than Sholay.
Amitabh Bachchan himself once said that he get inspired even today by watching all the actors in it and the direction the cinematography and the dialogues in the film, he said no one can call himself an actor if he says he didn't watch this film. The shear amount of time it took to make this magnificent piece of art that inspired the generations and will inspire the generations to come...
I will recommend both of u guys to go and purchase a DVD and watch this film coz u will get ur Jaws drop to the ground when u see the shots and hear thetdialogue deilvery in the film and the era when India ws ruled by this mughal emperor known as Akbar the great and his only son Salim who later became ttheemporer Jahangir. The film is based upon the true legends. And the story of Anarkali the role played by the gorgeous Madhu bala is some will say the true story. So as the legend goes....
