Zubeida
Zubeida was a pioneering Indian actress who became a star of the silent film era and is best known for being the leading lady in Alam Ara (1931), the first Indian talkie film. Born in 1911 in Surat, Zubeida was the daughter of Nawab Sidi Ibrahim Muhammad Yakut Khan III and Fatima Begum, an actress who would later become one of India's first female film directors. Zubeida's two sisters, Sultana and Shahzadi, also became actresses, making them a trailblazing family in early Indian cinema. Zubeida began her career at the age of 12, appearing in silent films like Veer Abhimanyu (1922) and Kalyan Khajina (1924). She quickly gained popularity, starring in numerous films throughout the 1920s. Her career took a historic turn with Alam Ara, a monumental film that ushered in the sound era of Indian cinema. Zubeida's successful transition to talkies solidified her status as a major star. Known for her bold and glamorous roles, she challenged the societal norms of her time, acting in an industry where it was considered scandalous for women from respectable families to be on screen. She became one of the highest-paid actresses and even established her own production company, Mahalakshmi Movietone, in 1934. She retired from acting in the late 1930s but made her final appearance in a film in 1949. Zubeida married Maharaj Narsingir Dhanrajgir Gyan Bahadur of Hyderabad. She passed away in 1988, leaving behind a legacy as a defiant and talented artist who was instrumental in shaping the history of Indian cinema.
