Abdul Rashid Kardar belongs to the trio of directors who are called the Movie Mughals of the Hindi cinema world. The other two directors in this group are K Asif (Mughal e Azam, Mohabbat aur Khuda etc.) and Mehboob Khan (Roti, Mother India, Son of India etc.). They are called Movie Mughals, as all of them approached their profession with a big heart, and budget was never considered a constraint in the face of quality or perfection of their creations.
