A unique book for lovers of Urdu and cinephiles alike, The Immortal Dialogue of Mughal-e-Azam features the original dialogue of this classic film in Urdu, as well as Hindi and Roman scripts. This is accompanied by an English translation by Nasreen Munni Kabir and Suhail Akhtar. With a foreword by the celebrated Urdu writer/poet Javed Akhtar, the book also features lavish photographs from the colourised version of the movie.
Combining a rich tapestry of puns, phrases and romantic exchanges, the remarkable dialogue (based on the screenplay by director K. Asif and Aman) was written by the immensely talented Urdu writers Amanullah Khan, Ehsan Rizvi, Kamal Amrohi and Vajahat Mirza.
A cinematic landmark, Mughal-e-Azam is acknowledged as one of India’s best loved and most enduring films, distinguished by a screenplay matchless in elegance, intelligence and wit.
The dialogue of the film presented in Urdu, Hindi and Roman scripts has been carefully transcribed from the original soundtrack of the film by Suhail Akhtar. The book also features a Hindi-Urdu glossary prepared by Kahkashaan Latif.
