Dastan or Dastaan is a 1950 Bollywood drama film directed by Abdul Rashid Kardar. A box-office success, the film became the third highest earning film of 1950, earning an approximate gross of Rs. 1,15,00,000 and net gross of Rs. 65,00,000 .[1] The film starred Raj Kapoor, Suraiya, Veena, Suresh, Al Nasir, Murad and Shakila.[2]
The story, a tragic melodrama, was a narrative in flashback.[3] It was inspired from the film Enchantment (1948) directed by Irving Reis.[4] Cited as "one of the biggest commercial hits" by Patel, Suraiya's acting was stated to have "over-shadowed" that of Raj Kapoor.[5]
