Aaah, what a movie! It remains one of my all time favourites. The songs were brilliant. The dialogues were amazing. Thanks for the trivia. Some movies have amazing grace and Pakeezah was one of them.

mahtab khan
we are both like minded the same as kamal amrohi. the visionary as kamaal amrohi, the music director as ghulaam mohammed and actor/acresses like raaj kumaar and meena kumaari are rarest creation of art on the earth.

Pakeezah is one of my favorite movies; thanks for sharing the little known facts about this movie. I wonder how they have shown Meena Kumari to be quite slim, because i think she had put a lot of weight by then.....
Bobby Sing
Hi Shiela, Keep Visiting and Writing in.

Since the movie sequences were shot over a decade, in certain scenes there is a very young Meena Kumari (Inhi Logon Ne) - and in parts she looks ill and worn out, especially in the scene in Salim\'s tent where she looks to be in pain and touches her stomach.

Beautiful! Its 1 of my all-time Favourites Hindi movies. And I rank it among 10 Best Hindi Classics & Music Album among top 3.
Wonderful Writeup!! But just 1 correction. The film was not released 2 months before Meena\'s death. It was released in Feb72, most probably on 3rd or 4th Friday. And of course you know date of Meena\'s death
