She could be mischievous and flirtatious, regal, tragic and imperious. When Madhubala gave her lopsided smile and spoke in that sensuous husky whisper, audiences everywhere fell under spell.
Beginning as a child star, Madhubala brought an infectious vivacity to her acting. Combining a mesmerising screen presence with versatile acting skills that made her one of the eternal stars of the Hindi screen.
