Interesting facts

Neki Aur Badi is a 1949 Indian Hindi-language patriotic drama film directed by Kidar Sharma. The film stars Sharma with Madhubala and Geeta Bali. It was the only film in which Sharma played the male lead role.

Production

In 1946, Sharma had given Madhubala her first break in Neel Kamal and thought of her as his "discovery"; he thus expected her not to work with other directors for at least the time he would establish her. However, Madhubala's father, known for his stubbornness, signed newer films as they came, informing neither Madhubala nor Sharma. Therefore, the production of Neki Aur Badi was an attempt by Sharma to retain the actress with him.
