The Nargis Dilemma

Last week I was upset as I thought I had thrown the film Babul out, by accident as it was in a set I broke up to sell one of six films. The film features Dilip Kumar, Nargis Dutt, and Munawar Sultana, in a romance full of twists.

According to IMDB this lady is Nargis Dutt. Anyone with the slightest knowledge of Bollywood can tell you is not Nargis; it is Munawar Sultana. I despair at the revies on IMDb, many of them are from India, yet like YouTube uploaders they have little knowledge of Bollywood earlier than 1990.

This lady is Nargis.

As you can see, her facial structure is nowhere close.

As often happens in our house, I found Babul while searching for another film I got from eBay.

The film i was looking for is called Dil Diya Dard Liya, and feeatures DK with another of my Bollywood favourite acttresses, Waheeda Rehman.

As yet, Dil Diya Dard Liya, reamains unfound
