The Perfidious Fire: S • At the beginning of the 20th century the Indian subcontinent was one giant British colony (the "East Indies"). There was economic growth but the economic inequality was colossal, with a rich aristocracy enjoying the financial benefits of capitalism and the masses in constant danger of starvation. The caste system and discrimination against women further contributed to create an unequal society. Mumbai, the headquarters of the British East India Company since 1672, was already a rich city, the capital of the textile industry, having benefited greatly from the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869. The ma • An exhaustive essay by Shantanu Ray Chaudhuri, one of the best film critics from India, an editor and writer along with an interview with the writers of the book, The Ultimate Biography, on the film legend and genius called Kishore Kumar Singer, composer, lyricist, director, writer, actor — Kishore Kumar was all this and more. Apart from Satyajit Ray, I can think of no other person in cinema whose talents ranged across so many departments. As a playback singer, he had no parallels – not Mohammad Rafi, not Hemant Kumar, no one came close. As an actor, he was almost surreal in comedies like Half Ticket and Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi[1].

It is immensely sad that he did not have more films and songs to his credit as a composer and lyricist. Take a look at these dialogues — Kya dekh rahe ho, Prashant? (What are you seeing Prashant) Uss raaste ko jo duur pahariyon ke beech kho gaya. (I lost myself in that distant road among the hil Before World War I
In July 1896 Lumiere Brothers' Chinematographe showed six silent shorts at a Mumbai/Bombay hotel. At the time the plague was spreading in the city, and a famine that would kill almost a million people was beginning to spread throughout the country. In that year a Harry Clifton Soundy opened a photography studio in Mumbai and one year later advertised a program of daily screenings of short movies. In 1898 two Italians set up tents in Mumbai's open field Gymkhana Maidan (now Azad Maidan) to show imported movies. In 1899 a Harishchandra Bhatvadekar showed (in Mumbai's hanging gardens) the first Indian short, a wrestling match (using Edison's kinetoscope). Introducing the Genius of Kishore Kumar
