Please answer ​

Answer 1

↪ Answer:

↠ The history of Indian cinema dates back to the nineteenth century. In 1896, the first film shot by the Lumere Brothers was screened in Mumbai (Bombay).

↠ But cinema really made history when Harishchandra Sakharam Bhatwadekar, popularly known as Saway Dada, was heavily influenced by the performance of the Lumere Brothers film and he got a camera from England. His first film in Mumbai was shot at Hanging Gardens, which was known as 'The Wrestler'. It was a simple recording of a wrestling match, which was screened in 1899 and is considered to be the first film in the Indian film industry.

 

↪ Explanation:

⇨ Dadasaheb Phalke, the father of Indian cinema, made India's first long film 'Raja Harishchandra', which was released in 1913. Despite being a silent film (soundless), it was a commercial success. Dada Saheb was not only a producer, but also a director, writer, cameraman, editor, makeup artist and art director. The first film of Indian cinema was 'Raja Harishchandra', which was screened in London in 1914. Although Dadasaheb Phalke, the first influential personality of Indian cinema, produced and operated 23 films from 1913 to 1918, the early growth of the Indian film industry was not as rapid as that of Hollywood.

In the early 1920s several new film production companies emerged. The Mahabharata and Ramayana dominated films in the 20s based on mythological and historical facts and episodes, but Indian audiences welcomed Hollywood films, especially action films.

Not only Hindi cinema not only developed, but the regional film industry in the country also left its mark. In 1917, the first Bengali feature film 'Nal Damayanti' with Italian actors in the lead roles was J.F. Made by Madan. The photographer of this film was Jyotish Sarkar.

In 1919, the first South Indian feature film 'Keechak Vadham' was screened through a silent film screening. In the film Madras (Chennai), R.C. Natraj was created by Mudaliar. Dada Saheb Phalke's daughter Mandakini was the first child artist to play the role of Bal Krishna in Phalke's 'Kalia Mardan' film in 1919.

'Jamai Shashthi' was the first sound film in Bengali, released in 1931 and produced by Madan Theater Limited. 'Kalidas' was the first Tamil sound film, directed by HM Reddy, screened in Madras on 31 October 1931. Apart from Bengali and South Indian languages, regional films were also made in Assamese, Oriya, Punjabi, Marathi and many other languages.

'Ayodhyecha Raja' was the first Marathi film to be directed by V. Shantaram in 1932. The film was made in two languages. In 1932, 'Ayodhya Ka Raja' was the first Indian sound film produced by Prabhat Company in Hindi and 'Ayodhyecha Raja' in Marathi.

Write about the development of Indian film industry.

Answer

The movie industry as we know it today originated in the early 19th century through a series of technological developments: the creation of photography, the discovery of the illusion of motion by combining individual still images, and the study of human and animal locomotion. The history presented here begins at the culmination of these technological developments, where the idea of the motion picture as an entertainment industry first emerged. Since then, the industry has seen extraordinary transformations, some driven by the artistic visions of individual participants, some by commercial necessity, and still others by accident. The history of the cinema is complex, and for every important innovator and movement listed here, others have been left out. Nonetheless, after reading this section you will understand the broad arc of the development of a medium that has captured the imaginations of audiences worldwide for over a century.
