About this listen

Mughal-E-Azam (1960) stands as a timeless monument in the history of Indian cinema. Directed by K. Asif, the film brings to life the tragic love story of Prince Salim and Anarkali, set amidst the grandeur and discipline of Emperor Akbar’s court. With towering performances by Dilip Kumar, Madhubala, and Prithviraj Kapoor, the film balances intense romance with royal authority and moral conflict. Its visual richness, poetic dialogues, and soul-stirring music by Naushad elevated Hindi cinema to unprecedented artistic heights. Decades later, Mughal-E-Azam continues to captivate audiences, symbolising eternal love, sacrifice, and cinematic excellence. This special feature on Tune India Radio celebrates a film that remains unmatched in scale, emotion, and legacy.
