Marathi cinema refers to films
produced in the Marathi language in the state of Maharashtra, India. It is one
of the oldest film industries in India. The first film in India was a silent
film called Raja Harishchandra (1913), which was made in Marathi by a
Maharashtrian, Dadasaheb Phalke and a Marathi crew who were performing Marathi &
Sanskrit Sangeet natikas (musicals) and plays in marathi at that period.
The first Marathi talkie film, Ayodhyecha Raja (produced by Prabhat
Films) was released in 1932, just one year after "Alam Ara" the first Hindi
talkie film. Marathi cinema has grown in recent years. The industry is based in
Mumbai, Maharashtra.
