The movie is timeless classic with excellent dialogues songs acting sets and everything. its Cost in 60s was Rs 8 crore (80 million) and considered to be biggest indian film ever

the intersting thing… the director/producer of this movie K.asif made only one film aprart from this mega venture in his whole career. :eek:

Famous Dialogues :

  • Anarkali, when presented with thorns by Salim: “*Zahe naseeb. Kaanton ko murjhane ka khauf nahin. *(I am fortunate to receive thorns because thorns never wither).”

  • Jodhabai: "Hamara Hindustan koi tumhare dil nahin hai laundi jispar hukumat kare (Our Hindustan is not your heart which a nautch girl can rule over)."

Salim: "Toh mera dil bhi aapka Hindusthan nahin hai, jo aap uspar hukumat kare (By the same token, my heart is not your Hindustan that you impose your will over it)."

Music:

  • Naushad says he recorded some 15 to 20 songs for the film but not all of them were used. Dilip Kumar, in keeping with his princely role, did not sing a single song.

  • For Jab pyar kiya toh darna kya, lyricist Shakeel Badayuni and Naushad had a brainstorming session in the latter’s bungalow’s terrace that lasted a whole night.

They came up with a song that has become the signature tune for rebellious lovers.
