Dadasaheb Phalke, a former printing business owner, abandoned his business after a quarrel with his partner, promising not to compete with him. With no job, he stumbled upon a silent film screening and became fascinated with filmmaking. With his wife and kids, he embarked on an unknown journey, making India's first feature film, "Raja Harishchandra".
