VENUS AND MADHUBALA

Author's Notes/Comments: 

*MADHUBALA: The most beautiful Urdu-Hindi actress of the Indian film industry. Robert Wise, the director of movies like Helen of Troy and The Sound of Music, called her "Aphrodite reincarnate" when he and his team visited India for the premiere of Helen of Troy. And the "Theatre" magazine of Hollywood's columnist described her as "the world's most beautiful actress...who does not live in Beverly Hills". Madhubala (I refer to her as Madhujee quite often, out of respect and reverence for her angelic loveliness) is known to this day as "The Venus of India".
