Today Google celebrates the 148th birth anniversary of legendary filmmaker Dadasaheb Phalke, who is known as the Father of Indian Cinema with a doodle. Dadasaheb Phalke is a celebrated producer, director and screenwriter who made 95 movies and 27 short films in a career that spanned 19 years.Dadasaheb Phalke's debut work, "Raja Harishchandra", is recognized as India's first ever full-length feature film. He went on to make more memorable movies like "Mohini Bhasmasur", "Satyavan Savitri" and "Kaliya Mardan".Dadasaheb Govind Phalke was born on 30 April 1870 in Trymbakeshwar in Maharashtra, 30 km from Nashik. His father was an accomplished scholar. Dadasaheb Phalke went on to study in the JJ School of Art in Mumbai in 1885. He then studied sculpture, engineering, drawing, painting and photography from Kala Bhavan in the Maharaja Sayajirao University of Baroda in Vadodara.He then started his career as a photographer in Godhra, but he stopped after losing his first wife and child in an outbreak of the bubonic plague. He briefly worked with the Archaeological Survey of India before he turned to the business of printing. He worked with painter Raja Ravi Varma before starting his own printing press.A dispute with his business partners and a viewing of the silent film "The Life of Christ" was what led his attention to turn to movies. He went on to make "Raja Harishchandra" in 1912, a year before it was first shown publicly. "Raja Harishchandra" effectively marked the beginning of the Indian film industry, which is now one of the world's biggest. In 1969, the government of India honoured the legendary filmmaker by instituting the Dadasaheb Phalke award, which is one of the most prestigious awards in Indian cinema and the highest official recognition for film personalities in India. The award is presented annually at the National Film Awards ceremony. Actress Devika Rani was the first recipient of this award and other noted personalities include Raj Kapoor, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Yash Chopra, Satyajit Ray, Mrinal Sen and Shyam Benegal. Vinod Khanna, who became only the second person to be posthumously presented the award, is the most recent recipient of the award this year. Dadasaheb Phalke had a career that spanned 19 years and it was only with the introduction of sound film that he hung up his boots in 1937 after releasing his last work "Gangavataran". He died in Nashik on 16 February 1944.

भारतीय सिनेमा के जनक की उपाधि पाने वाले दादासाहेब फाल्के का जन्म 30 अप्रैल, 1870 को महाराष्ट्र के नासिक शहर में हुआ था. दादासाहेब फाल्के (Dadasaheb Phalke) के 148वें जन्मदिवस के मौके पर गूगल ने डूडल बनाकर उन्हें याद किया है. लंदन में फिल्म से जुड़ी बारिकियां सीखने के बाद दादासाहेब मुंबई लौटे. उन्होंने फाल्के फिल्म कंपनी की स्थापना की और अपने बैनर तले 'राजा हरिश्चंद्र' नामक फिल्म बनाने का निर्णय लिया. हालांकि, भारतीय सिनेमा की पहली फिल्म बनने के लिए उन्हें भारी मुश्किलों का सामना करना पड़ा था.दादासाहेब की फिल्म पर पहले कोई पैसा लगाने को तैयार नहीं था. थोड़ी मशक्कत के बाद उन्हें फाइनेंसर मिले, लेकिन असली मुसीबत तब आई जब कोई महिला उनके साथ काम करने को तैयार नहीं थी. मराठी स्टेज एक्टर दत्तात्रेय दामोदर दाबके ने फिल्म में 'राजा हरिश्चंद्र' का किरदार निभाने के लिए हामी भरी. दादासाहेब के बेटे बालाचंद्रा ने हरिश्चंद्र के बेटे रोहितश्व का कैरेक्टर प्ले किया था. लेकिन रानी तारामति का रोल निभाने के लिए उस दौर की कोई भी महिला तैयार नहीं थी. दसअसल उस समय महिलाओं का काम करना अच्छा नहीं माना जाता था.महिला एक्ट्रेस की तलाश में दादासाहेब ने कोठे तक के चक्कर लगाए, लेकिन बात न बनीं. आखिरकार एक भोजनालय में बावर्ची के तौर पर काम करने वाले व्यक्ति अन्ना सालुंके से दादासाहेब की मुलाकात हुई. अन्ना बावर्ची के तौर पर काम करके 10 रुपये कमाते थे, दादासाहेब ने उन्हें 15 रुपये देना का वादा किया और वह मान गए.
