Did you know Madhubala's father was the reason why Dilip Kumar and Madhubala could not marry?

Raised in the slums of Bombay, Madhubala supported her family as a child star Mumtaz (her original name) and soon became a leading lady known for her elegance on screen and considerable acting abilities.
She famously fell in love with actor Dilip Kumar, her co-star in cult classic Mughal-E-Azam unfortunately, her father became the reason for their seperation. He is said to be the main reason why Dilip Kumar and Madhubala could not marry. Even though after much denial when Madhubala's father did agree to let the lovers tie the knot, he is said to have also wanted to make financial gains through a marriage between the two biggest stars of the Bollywood.
