00:00India's first film Raja Harich Chander was released in 1913 which means that at that time there was Biltis rule in India
00:06Then how did this film get released from 1757 to 1947 when the British kept India as slaves, then who made this film and how?
00:15And it was also released just like that. We are going to get answers to all the questions in this video.
00:21These dramas and music continued during the Biltish regime and later they were sung in film uddis.
00:27The first film Raja Harich Chander was made by Dada Sath Phalke which was a silent film
00:32In the Uz era, the role of Melao was also fully portrayed in this film
00:36After that, the first film in which Vaz was seen was named Ala Mara which was released in 1931
00:43Bitis Sargar did not suffer any direct loss due to film being made in India
00:47He just wanted to make sure that these films don't harm him
00:52Meaning there should not be anything in them that challenges the British rule
00:57That is why they brought the Censorship Act for films in 1918, which was five years after the first film was released.
01:03Meaning now if any film goes beyond the ambit of their law, they do not allow it to be released
01:09Just like in today's time, the government has a share in the earnings from the film.
01:14Which is known as Om Entertainment Dax
01:18Even during that period it was brought by the Biltis government
01:20Meaning the film industry has now become a business for them
01:24Tax started being levied on movie tickets
01:26Which was deposited directly in the treasury of the Biltis government
01:29Restoration fees and license for theatre coal made mandatory
01:33To run the theater, a fee had to be deposited every year
01:36which was 50-200 rupees
01:38A huge amount in high times
01:41In this, the license was given after checking the proper arrangements for extinguishing fire, safety and batting.
01:48Had to pay some more charges
01:50Films also had to pay a fee to get passed by the censor board
01:54To procure equipment required for making films such as cameras, reels and other technical equipment
02:00which were mostly imported from England
02:03They began to be charged import duty which was more than 20%
02:07which increased the government treasury
02:09Many people got employment in making films
02:12And everything related to them came under the purview of tax.
02:16By taking tax and making rules and by taking fish to pass the film
02:20The Biltis government was filling its treasury in many ways
02:23Let me explain it to you by giving examples of some tax rates.
02:27how did these things work
02:28From 1920 to 1940, tax of 5 to 15% was levied
02:34During World War 2 they even increased it to 20%
02:38Because he was also a part of World War 2
02:40and you were loving me
02:41He did this during the 1940s
02:44There is no objectionable material in the film in Ujwane
02:48or has it been like this for a long time
02:49which the Biltis government did not want
02:51So that scene was cut
02:53or it would have been banned
02:54There is internal conflict in this
02:56We talk about
02:57Nothing shown about Matama Gandhi and Bagat Singh
03:01Criticism of the Bittis government
03:03or comment against them
03:04And it also includes things that incite religious riots.
03:07movie waqt bidoor ko
03:09Some songs faced a ban in the 1930s
03:12Because it had things related to Gandhi ji in it
03:14They feared that this would spread the desire for freedom
03:17Before this Neel Darpan heard the bell
03:19Banned in 1860
03:21It was a play, not a film
03:23It was shown that
03:25The British exploited the indigo farmers
03:28The film Sanjibani was banned in 1932
03:31In which the message was that the Indian people should unite and stand up for their rights against the British rule.
03:39The film Bardi was banned in 1930 because it depicted atrocities committed by the Indian police on people under the orders of the British government.
03:48This could have given a boost to the revolutionary movements
03:51The film actor was also immediately punished by the British in 1943.
03:56Because the film criticized cultural veganism
04:00These Biltis used to challenge the emperor
04:03The message in the film is that the Indian society has lost its identity.
04:06The film Said Azam Bagus Singh was shot in 1933
04:10Because it showed Bagus Singh as a hero
04:13Due to which the idea of revolutionary work could spread among the Indians
04:17The film Bande Mataram was copied in 1936 for some parts
04:22Because this Indian had given so much happiness to Sangram
04:26This means that the British banned every film
04:29in which his anger was shown
04:31These revolutionary ideas got encouragement
04:33He earned money from films through taxes
04:36And make rules and laws for them too
04:38After all these films were made with Billti Sasan
04:41was allowed to produce and display
