Biographie

Suraiya was declared the first Melody Queen (Malika-e-Tarannum) in the sub-continent and much later Noor Jehan was awarded with the same title.

Her greatness can be judged by these comments. You have put life in the soul of Mirza Ghalib, were the remarks of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first Indian Prime Minister.
Suraiya was an ardent fan of the Hollywood star Gregory Peck. So much so that Dev Anand's initial years saw a lot of influence of Gregory Peck's mannerisms and style. Dev sahib had himself gone on record to say that there was a time when he was impressed by the Hollywood legend. In connection with the shooting of some film, he happened to visit Mumbai where Suraiya met him after many years.

The film depicts the life of one-time wealthy and noble poet Mirza Ghalib. The story revolves around his trials, successes and failures and his ultimate descent into poverty. Ghalib falls in love with a beautiful courtesan named Chaudvin; however, tragedy befalls their ill-fated relationship. Set in a historical background, the film deals with the eternal psychological and social problems in the career of a genius poet. This film portrays one aspect of life of Mirza Ghalib (born 27 December 1797; died 15 February 1869, at age 73) in which the conflict between love and loyalty had deeply affected a sensitive artist. Mirza Ghalib fails to make an impression at the Royal Court 'Mushaira' of Emperor Bahadur Shah Zafar but at the same time, unknowingly wins the heart of Chaudvin, an accomplished court dancer.
