Sorry! But she is NOT krishna kumari. I am not sure if it is the other sister. need to check it. But surely it is not krishna kumari.

So....

The khoj needs to be on if you want to find out who she is.

Any way

Thanks for the song.

I just love it.

There are Two Krishna kumaris, IMBD mixed up the data of these two., Telugu actress Sankaramanchi Krishna Kumari ( a Telugu Madhva Brahmin Girl ) acted Dozens of Super hits with ANR , NTR and KanthaRao. She acted in few Kannada super hits also. It appears that you can not identify the face of Telugu Krishna Kumari. This Hindi Krishna kumari acted in Samrat Chandra Guptha also . See her in " khal khal,2, behathee jaay masth nadee ka dhaar " song in UTube- Arani Apparao-Hyderabad-A.P.

@apparaoarani You are right. I do not recognize Telugu film actress Krishna Kumari (as I have never seen, nor was in a position to see, any Telugu movie at all). I only know the one who acted in Hindi films. I have seen the song mentioned by you and it is picturized on Krishna Kumari (Hindi). She also played a significant role in 1960 film Bewaqoof starring Mala Sinha, Kishore Kumar and I. S Johar. (Orientlover posting from Lahore).

I have confirmed from various sources that this actress singing in the voice of Shamshad Begum is Krishna Kumari (b. 1933). She acted mostly in Telugu films and played only small roles in Hindi films.Her biography mentions only three Hindi films: Baiju Bawra(1952), Nagin(1954) and Haryali aur Rasta(1962) although I have seen her in 1954 movie Chandni Chowk and in a bigger role in 1961 film Gharana. Thanks Mahagedara2 for your efforts and interest.

[Mahagedara2]

@orientlover1 - So my earlier guess is correct!

Thank you my dear friend for solving the "problem".

Take care.

Yuan.

[asifsongs]

@orientlover1 then who is in film mahel??? I think she is also this woman.

[orientlover1]

@asifsongs The actress we are talking about is Krishna Kumari as I have mentioned above. She does not appear in film Mahel. There are two main actresses in that film : heroine Madhubala and opposite her is Vijaylakshami who plays as wife of Ashok Kumar. Vijaylakshami also appeared in several films. Her most important role is in film Aah in which she plays as Nargis' sister Chandra. She also appears in film Pakeeza but in a minor role as Bibban.

The actress singing in the voice of Shamshad Begum with MK was extremely beautiful but did small roles. Unfortunately, she had a big mole in the middle of her right cheek which blemished her beauty (a small mole a on cheek is considered a plus point though). In this song it is not very clearly visible due to distance. Cameramen avoided her closeup shots from right side for this reason. She sings at a mujra in film Chandni Chowk (1954) with Agha and Jeevan in attendance. Also starring MK.

[Mahagedara2]

@orientlover1 - Still no response to your earlier comment.

Hope there will be, very soon.

Thank you.

[orientlover1]

@Mahagedara2 Thank you. Problem solved.

[orientlover1]

Could anyone please tell what is the name of actress singing this song in the voice of Shamshad Begum along with Meena Kumari. She appears in the beginning of the song 0.27 to 0.35 and then at 0.56 to 1.10 and then1.20 to 1.47 and keeps appearing for short periods. She has also appeared in Meena Kumari's movie Chandni Chowk wherein she sings at a mujra and in some other movies

[Mahagedara2]

@orientlover1 - These are the other notable actresses in this film, according to IMDb.

Kesari and Krishna Kumari [Younger sister of actress Showkar Janaki.].

Should be one of them.

Can some one help, please?

Thank you.

[arunkunj]
