0:37 Tom, did you know the lady of the right is Bharat Bhushan’s second wife, Ratna? His first wife, Sarla, died in the early ‘60s, a couple of years after the release of this film. Sarla happened to be amongst the very few people from the film industry who were close friends with the elusive Madhubala.

I didn't know about Sarla, but I did learn about Ratna recently, while researching this film. Barsaat Ki Raat is blessed with having three great beauties in its cast, Madhubala, Shyama, and Ratna. Thank you for leaving your comment with that valuable information.
