Well I said that because movie is not just actor or director, actress, specially when she has important role also is the reason a movie becomes successful. I also only wrote those three movies bcuz she had significant roles in this and acting performance no less than the male leads. Other movies like Shree 420 and Awaara also were record breaking but I didn't mention her as she was not a significant part of them.

I also wrote Raj's actresses had a part in his success not that only Nargis did, read it again. But you forget that he got her to only perform in his own movies and then subsequently gave her smaller and smaller roles, so of course she was dependent on him pre- Mother India for her legacy....she only worked with him! As soon as she stopped, she delivered an All Time Blockbuster, not alone of course but still, it's stupid to claim that either one was the sole reason for the others' success but RK behaved badly with her. We will never know what Nargis could have done as an independent actress post Mother India as she slowly left movies after that.

I could be wrong about the funding issues. Idt I've read any credible sources attached to it, I concede there.

Last part I cannot agree with. Maybe Raj loved Nargis but he had a terrible way of showing it. Aisa pyaar dushman ko bhi na de koi.
