Why is India’s highest film award given in the name of Dadasaheb Phalke?

Dadasaheb Phalke’s real name was Dundiraj Govind Phalke. He was born on April 30, 1870 in Trimbak, Maharashtra, into a Marathi-speaking Chitpavan Brahmin family. He received training in acting and photography at the Sir JJ School of Arts in Bombay. After that, he went to Germany to study filmmaking. After returning to India, he made India’s first feature-length silent film, Raja Harishchandra. He was given the honorary title of “Father of Indian Cinema” for his sincere commitment and belief in cinema.

Later, the Indian government instituted the Dada Sahib Phalke Award in 1969 to recognize and reward the best performances in various categories that year in his memory of his outstanding contribution.
