The movie Mughal-e-Azam (1960) was a real piece of art; breaking all records and concepts in the Bollywood. With Dilipkumar, Madhubala and Prithviraj Kapoor in the cast, it broke all the records till then, the collection record stood for another 15 years. The song Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya was filmed in Mohan Studios on a set built as a replica of the Sheesh Mahal in the Lahore Fort. The set was noted for its size, measuring 150 feet (46 m) in length, 80 feet (24 m) in breadth and 35 feet (11 m) in height. A much-discussed aspect was the presence of numerous small mirrors made of Belgian glass, which were crafted and designed by workers from Firozabad. The set took two years to build and cost more than INR1.5 million (valued at about US$314,000 in 1960), more than the budget of an entire Bollywood film at the time.
