What happens

Andaz (transl. Style) is a 1949 Indian Hindi language romantic drama film, directed by Mehboob Khan, with music by Naushad. The film stars Dilip Kumar, Nargis, and Raj Kapoor in a love triangle, with Cukoo and Murad in supporting roles. The film's music was provided by Naushad and lyrics by Majrooh Sultanpuri. It is the only film to feature Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor together onscreen. At the time of its release, Andaz was the highest-grossing Indian film ever, until its record was broken by Raj Kapoor's Barsaat that same year. Dilip Kumar's performance was profoundly appreciated by the critics of the time and was credited for drawing public to cinema halls for an otherwise alien subject. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
