Raja Harishchandra is a 1913 silent Indian
film directed and produced by Marathi icon Dadasaheb Phalke, and is the
first full-length Indian feature film and marathi feature film.The film
was based on the legend of King Harishchandra, recounted in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata.
Some have argued that Raja Harishchandra does not deserve the honour of being called the first Indian film because Dadasaheb Torne's film Shree Pundalik was released on 18 May 1912 in Mumbai i.e. One year before Phalke's film.
Cast:
Dattatraya Damodar Dabke as Raja Harishchandra
Salunke as Taramati[3]
Bhalachandra D. Phalke
G.V. Sane as Vishwamitra
