Howrah Bridge (1958)


Howrah Bridge is a film where Madhubala is at her glamorous best.her song from the film '"Aaiye Meherban "is the best pictures song of her,she is so ravishingly beautiful .this song is sung by Asha Bhonsle who was asked to sing it in Geeta Dutt's style.and it came out wonderfully.

Ashok Kumar too is at his suave gentlemanly best.they were first paired together in Mahal a huge hit.

k N Singh is at his villainy best.the best performance he has ever given.the triangle is intriguing and full of complications.

Helen too shine in this film one of her earlier role,her song from the film "Mera Naam Chin Chin Chu" is still very popular with lots of remixes coming out.

its a suspenseful ,romantic mystery.though the script is lacking in some elements.music is fine.film is quite entertaining.its print is good.all the characters radiate an aura of charm and the film itself is a classic.a treat for Madhubala fans.
