Munawar Sultana

Bio: Munawar Sultana (1924–2007) (her name in all her films opening credits), also written as Munnawar Sultana,[1] or Munawar Sultana[2] was an Indian cinema actress, who acted in Hindi/Hindustani films. She is cited as one of the "popular" actresses of the late 1940s to early 1950s period, along with Noor Jehan, Swarnalata and Ragini.[3] Her specialty was playing the role of a selfless woman, enduring the rough treatment meted by her husband and family, but who eventually "brought her erring husband back home".[4]
