     1'''Nalini Jaywant  (b. 1926)''' 
     2 
     3 
     4Actress born in Bombay; cousin of Shobhana 
     5Samarth. Début aged 13. In Mehboob’s 
     6Bahen she sang the Wajahat Mirza duet, Nahin 
     7khate hain bhaiyya mere paan, with Sheikh 
     8Mukhtar, central to the film’s incest theme. A 
     9Filmfare cameramen’s poll voted her the most 
     10photogenic Indian actress ever. In her bestknown 
     11work she usually functioned as the one 
     12who embraces life in counterpoint to the 
     13otherwise ‘ realistic’ melodrama of R.S. 
     14Choudhury, Mehboob and Mahesh Kaul 
     15(e.g. Naujawan). Later she developed a 
     16curiously autonomous, guilt-free performative 
     17style (e.g. the Navketan thriller Kala Pani). 
     18Her association with realism was extended by 
     19Ramesh Saigal, Bimal Roy and most notably 
     20Zia Sarhadi’s Awaaz, while films with 
     21Kardar (Jadu), Mahesh Kaul (Naujawan, esp. 
     22the number Thandi hawaien) and Subodh 
     23Mukherjee developed the alternate musical 
     24persona exemplified by the 50s Filmistan 
     25musicals with Dev Anand (e.g. Munimji). 
     26Often partnered Ashok Kumar in 1950-2 after 
     27their success in Filmistan’s Samadhi and 
     28Sangram at Bombay Talkies.
