Wiki.
Tarana (transl. Anthem) is a 1951 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film produced and written by K. S. Daryani and directed by Ram Daryani. Starring Madhubala and Dilip Kumar together for the first time, Tarana revolves around the titular character (Madhubala), a free-spirited village girl who falls in love with a visiting doctor (Kumar).
Tarana is best remembered as the production during which Madhubala and Kumar began a highly publicised affair that lasted for nearly six years. Released on 5 October 1951, the film became one of the biggest box office hits of the year and earned overwhelming positive reviews from critics, mostly for the lead pair's onscreen chemistry, music and direction.
