The film Raja Harishchandra is considered to be the first Indian film. Dadasaheb Phalke had to face many challenges while making his film. The most significant task was to find a woman who would become the heroine of the movie. None of the women agreed to act in the film. Then they had to cast a male actor to play the female role. So you can imagine how difficult it must have been for women to usher in a new era in Indian cinema. Celebrating Women’s Day, tribute has been paid to the legendary actresses of Indian cinema who created a revolution by taking Indian cinema in a new direction. Women have been a part of Indian stamps for decades. Mirabai was the first Indian woman on a postage stamp issued on 1^st October 1952.
