Since ‘chaudhvin ka chaand ho ya aaftaab ho’ from the film ‘ Chaudhvin ka chaand ‘, no one had really attempted to recreate the magic of it. The reason is obvious that it is a tough act to follow. The beauty of that song in black n white is not comparable to anything.

“Jungle Princess” (1942) was a Wadia Movietone Production. This movie had Nadia playing a female version of Tarzan. Unlike Tarzan, who gets raised by monkeys, here Nadia (playing Mala) is raised by Lions, no less. 
. She has two lion cubs as her companions at childhood and then all three grow up. Watching a grown up Nadia flanked by two grown up lions is a great sight to behold. Our beloved Memsaab has written a wonderful review of this movie here and I keep revisiting this page every time I have to discuss a song from this movie.
