Oooo the drama. Mother India (मदर इण्डिया) is an epic (three-hour) musical melodrama from Mehboob Khan, but it is mostly enjoyable, and there are elements that are absolutely brilliant. The most important aspects are the film's struggle between honor and justice. This is the central question of the film, and it is embodied by Radha and her son Birju, who represent honor and justice, respectively. This is a hard and emotional battle, and although honor wins in the end, the film really isn't sure whether it's right to choose honor. It's a very interesting movie.
