About The Cruel Sorcerer
In her desire to rule the world with black magic, Maya, the Queen of Mayanagari, enlists the aid of her brother, Nagraj, to conquer the kingdom of Roopnagar. Nagraj, who is the vizier of Roopnager schemes to remove the princess Rupmati by killing her while she is on a hunt. The plan is foiled when a woodcutter named Bahadur (Hercules) intervenes and saves Rupmati from Nagraj’s curse by using his brute strength and a powerful talisman. Bahadur is hired by Nagraj to be a tax collector and is sent to Mayanagari where the queen awaits her chance to kill him with an exploding volcano and a horrible demon. In the meantime, Nagraj captures the princess and hides her away in a magic cave.
Directed by Sultan, The Cruel Sorcerer leans on a strong ensemble — Harbans, Maqbool, Om Prakash — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about fantasy titles of 1960.
