On
3rd May, 1903, precisely 100 years back, Dhundiraj Govind Phalke, a
small town photographer from Maharashtra,
screened his black-and-white silent film Raja Harischandra and that made
him the founding father of Indian cinema. This year, on same day Indian film
industry celebrate a century of its existence. The film was based on the life of
Raja Harischandra, a famous character from Hindu mythology.
Dhundiraj
Govind Phalke's better known as Dadasaheb
Phalke, made almost 95 films but never made any money and he died in penury.
Apart
from Hindi film industry India
also have many regional film industry with some great name.
Hindi
Film Industry also known as Bollywood. As per my current status I can proudly
declare that am not at all a movie buff. However, during my school and college
day things was different. During my early working years I was greatly exposed
to the Hollywood but once I returned back to India
once again I gone back to the Hindi movies.
