Madhubala’s bungalow was named ‘Kismat’
On Ranveer Allahabadia’s podcast, Imtiaz said, “Madhubala used to have a house called the ‘Kismat’ bungalow. Now it has been renovated. But in the earlier days, they did not allow people to film there at night, and people generally did not want to film there at night because they believed that Madhubala’s ghost haunts the place.”

Imtiaz Ali Khan further added, “Who knows if it was true or not, but that is what people believed. I shot there a lot at night. And I would go alone to the quietest, darkest corner of that house, and I would wonder if Madhubala’s ghost would come. Although I don’t really believe in spirits, I remember that feeling. It wasn’t just scary, but there was a sense of awe and romance. It’s an interesting combination.”
