| Summary |
A historical drama with film songs of a Mughal romance in which Prince Salim (Majnun Salim Akbar son of Akbar) falls in love with the commoner Anarkali. They never could marry and in the end Anarkali is buried alive. Anarkali looks at the mythical and legendary love of Prince Salim (Pradeep Kumar), the son of Akbar with the court dancer Anarkali (Bina Rai), a commoner. When his father Emperor Akbar (Mubarak) finds out, he is furious and does his best to thwart the romance saying a commoner could never be the empress of India. Salim, nevertheless, is adamant and rebelliously leads an army against his father. He is defeated in battle and brought before Akbar who sentences both, him and Anarkali to death. At the last moment, however, Akbar is unable to give the final order to the executioner to behead Salim and while freeing him tells him that Anarkali also is free. However, Anarkali has been taken to be entombed alive in a brick wall and by the time Salim arrives, she is already sealed alive--Imdb site, viewed November 27, 2012. |
