Saat Lakh (lit.'Seven Lakh') is 1957 Pakistani Urdu film directed by Jaffer Malik and produced by Saifuddin Saif. It stars Sabiha Khanum and Santosh Kumar in the lead with supporting role by Nayyar Sultana and guest appearance by Neelo. The film is primarily known for its blockbuster music composed by Rashid Attre.[1]
Based on Mr. & Mrs. '55,
it is recognised one of the successful films of the 1950s with primary focus on "money" and other assets amounting to PKR700,000 of each asset including cash amounting seven lakh as described by the last will and testament.[1] According to that last will and testament of heiress's father, his daughter is only entitled to his property if she marries. Adhering to testator's last wish, the rich heiress betrays a poor man convicted of accidental killing and starts pretending to marry him.[2]
Saat Lakh is the first successful film of Jaffer Malik. It won the inaugural Nigar Award for best film, in addition to 4 awards in others categories.[3] In an article by BBC, the film was included in the list of 10 best films of the Pakistani cinema.[2] The film's success paved the way to establish the career of Talish, Neelo and Sultana.[4][5]
