00:00 In the last part, we saw that after facing many difficulties,
00:03 the film 'Mughlai Azam' was re-released.
00:06 But do you know that during the shooting,
00:09 K. Asif and Prithviraj Kapoor were being used in a conspiracy
00:14 to make them run wild in the scorching heat?
00:16 Was there a single incident where Dilip Kumar
00:19 threatened to leave the film halfway through?
00:23 And was there any such incident where K. Asif
00:26 wanted to put the previously shot film back in the trash
00:31 and shoot a new one?
00:33 If you want to know this, then you have to watch this video till the end.
00:37 After facing many difficulties, the shoot for this film started again.
00:48 Slowly, the film was getting shot.
00:50 Prithviraj Kapoor was not trying to complete this film.
00:55 But one day, K. Asif and Prithviraj Kapoor
00:59 had a big fight.
01:01 A set of paintings was set in a Jaipur garden.
01:04 The sun was burning the plants and the sun was burning the ground.
01:09 It was difficult to shoot.
01:11 There was no vanity van at that time.
01:14 There were four poles in the garden and the shoot was about to start.
01:18 Suddenly, a sound came from one of the poles.
01:20 Asif, you have gone mad.
01:22 This sound was of Prithviraj Kapoor.
01:25 Papa ji, you will give the shot as I want.
01:29 I will not wear shoes until your shot is okay.
01:33 In the script of the film,
01:35 in the scorching desert,
01:37 he had asked to walk barefoot,
01:40 this Akbar-e-Azam.
01:42 As if he was naked,
01:44 K. Asif showed him.
01:47 K. Asif was saying that Prithviraj Kapoor,
01:50 Akbar-e-Azam should give this shot without wearing shoes.
01:55 Prithviraj Kapoor was in a state of shock.
02:00 He entered the pond,
02:02 knocked the pot and in the spirit of meditation,
02:05 he started reciting the Gayatri Mantra.
02:08 After that, he came out of the pond for half an hour.
02:11 At that time, he was Shahenshah Jalaluddin Akbar.
02:14 When he came out of the pond,
02:16 K. Asif was seeing his Akbar.
02:19 Prithviraj started reciting in the scorching sun.
02:23 Behind Akbar's army and the army,
02:26 Queen Jodhabai's elephant was walking slowly.
02:31 K. Asif and his group were standing in the open jeep.
02:36 Shahenshah's gentle walk, which Asif wanted,
02:40 Prithviraj showed in the first shot.
02:44 The half-hour walk was captured and the shot was okay.
02:48 Prithviraj looked at him with respect,
02:51 Asif was walking in silence from the jeep.
02:55 Prithviraj had never met such a director in his long career.
03:00 After that, in every struggle,
03:02 Prithviraj Asif was standing behind him.
03:06 It's been many years since the Mughal Emperor was ready.
03:15 In this, Dilip Kumari's Madhumati and Yahudi,
03:19 Even if the film comes and goes,
03:21 It was a silver jubilee,
03:23 But this film was running at the feet of Mungi.
03:26 So once, Dilip Kumari and K. Asif,
03:31 Threatened to leave the film.
03:33 I'm not doing it, I'm leaving Salim.
03:36 Dilip Kumari threatened.
03:39 Dilip Kumari's other films,
03:41 He said that Salim's role was getting less attention.
03:46 And the film was taking so long to be completed.
03:51 K. Asif was asking to increase the role.
03:55 But K. Asif didn't want to change his writing.
03:59 On the contrary, he ran to them.
04:01 He said, "Why would you leave such a good role?"
04:05 "Will you leave such a good film?"
04:07 "Then why are you doing drama all the time?"
04:09 "I'm not going to be Salim, I'm going to be Moghul."
04:12 "You already know that."
04:14 Such a tension was coming on the set many times.
04:18 But finally, Prithviraj Kapoor,
04:20 The film was crossing its middle stage.
04:23 Actually, one thing was destroying Dilip Kumar.
04:27 Once the film was complete,
04:29 What you see on the screen,
04:31 It will be all-pervasive.
04:33 It was necessary to complete this film.
04:37 K. Asif has another story, which is very famous.
04:40 Asif was in a hurry.
04:43 He was eager to sing the song of Tansen in the film.
04:47 "Bade Gulam Ali Khans Haved"
04:49 He was sitting in a hurry.
04:51 But Kha Saheb refused to say the film song.
04:55 "You will sing the song, sir."
04:58 "Just tell me your price."
05:00 Asif said to him, "Bade Gulam Ali Khans"
05:05 Music director Noshad was heartbroken.
05:09 "Bade Gulam Ali Khans Haved"
05:12 He said, "I will charge Rs. 25,000 for one song."
05:21 At that time, Yashaswi Parashu Gayak
05:25 Was getting Rs. 500 for one song.
05:29 But 25,000 is a lot of money.
05:36 "Your price is more than that."
05:39 Noshad was heartbroken.
05:42 He said, "I will charge Rs. 50,000 for two songs."
05:46 K. Asif was very happy at that time.
05:56 Mughal-e-Azam was in trouble.
06:00 The film was half-finished.
06:03 And a big problem came up.
06:07 Doctors told Madhubala that he had a heart attack.
06:12 And everyone was shocked.
06:14 Madhubala was exhausted.
06:17 He was in a lot of pain mentally.
06:21 K. Asif was busy making the film.
06:25 In the book "Story of Cinema"
06:28 Abhijit Desai says,
06:30 "At that time, the film was going on."
06:35 "The scene of the fight between the two"
06:40 "Was a very difficult scene."
06:43 "This film will never be completed."
06:46 Many people said.
06:48 One day, K. Asif was in a big trouble.
06:52 He said, "I am shooting the film on a cinema scope."
06:57 "It will be fun."
06:58 "But no one listened to me."
07:01 "The producer, Shahpurji, was very upset."
07:05 "He will shoot the film for another 10 years."
07:10 "He was very angry."
07:13 "The remaining scenes were shot."
07:16 "On 5th August, 1960, Mughal-e-Azam"
07:20 "The film was a huge success."
