'NEECHA NAGAR' HONOURED AT 'CANNES'..75!

'75th Cannes Film Festival' is going to happen now! This is also 75th anniversary year of our Indian cinema's victory in that festival.

That was Chetan Anand's 'Neecha Nagar' (1946) which won the top award 'Grand Prix du Festival International du Film' (now called 'Palme d’Or') there at Cannes!

My special article on this our pioneering film in social realism published on my this blog 'Chitrasrushti' (Filmworld) on 27th Oct.,2017. Please see it!
