Dhundiraj Govind Phalke (Pronunciation: [Dhundiraj Govind Phalke]; 30 April 1870 – 16 February 1944), popularly known as Dadasaheb Phalke, was an Indian producer, director and screenwriter, widely regarded as "the Father of Indian cinema".
Phalke’s debut film, Raja Harishchandra (1913), was the first Indian motion picture and is recognised as India's first full-length Indian historical feature film on Satyavadi Raja Harishchandra. The movie’s success marked the beginning of Indian cinema and inspired the growth of the film industry in the country.
