It has been proud to watch a cult-classic film now in 2021 for the first time and I can trace back the setting and the subject which the movie talks about. The films getting released nowadays have this kind of subject or theme which shows a close resemblance to this 1949 film, Mahal. Debted from gothic culture Mahal set-up in a Mahal (mansion) which has that kind of German Expressionist mise-en-scene and musical accompaniment. I like the songs especially the 'Ayega' song which is resounding in my heart. The great essence of cinematography technique by the veteran Josef Wirsching can be seen here and excellent music composition by Khemchand Prakash. A modernized way of depiction can be seen in each and every frame of the movie.
