He's beautiful!
I want news for him now!
...more time to save even though I have enough for him now, but might be able to get his weapon, but waiting for a new man sucks when they are already seemingly rare

Did you know that Meena Kumari was initially cast opposite Dilip Kumar in the movie Amar (1954)? However, due to some reasons, Meena Kumari could not continue shooting and was replaced by Madhubala.
Madhubala and Dilip Kumar had already become a famous on-screen couple with the success of the 1951 movie Tarana.
Although Amar was far ahead of its time and didn't do well at the box office, the natural chemistry between Madhubala and Dilip Kumar was well appreciated by both the audience and critics. Meena Kumari would have portrayed this role in her own versatile and charismatic way, as did Madhubala. Here are stills from the same scene in the movie: one with Meena Kumari and another with Madhubala.
