- Chandralekha_(1948_film) abstract "Chandralekha (also spelled Chandraleka) is a 1948 Indian historical fiction film directed and produced by S. S. Vasan. The film features T. R. Rajakumari in the title role and M. K. Radha as the male lead, with Ranjan as the primary antagonist. The film's music was composed by S. Rajeswara Rao and M. D. Parthasarathy, with a script by Gemini's story department composed of Veppathur Kittoo, Kothamangalam Subbu, K. J. Mahadevan, Sangu, and Naina. A "Ruritanian period extravaganza", the film tells the story of two royal brothers and rivals, Veerasimhan and Sasankan, and a country maiden and dancer, Chandralekha.Development for Chandralekha began in 1943 when Vasan, after two successive hit films, announced that his next film would be entitled Chandralekha. However, when he launched an advertising campaign for the film, all he had was the name of the heroine from a storyline he had rejected about a tough woman. One of his storyboard artists, Veppathur Kittoo, later developed a story based on the novel Robert McCaire the Male Bandit, which impressed Vasan. The original director of Chandralekha was T. G. Raghavachari, who, after directing more than half the film, left the project due to disagreements with Vasan, who took over the film in his directorial debut.Originally filmed in Tamil and later in Hindi, Chandralekha was in production for five years from 1943 to 1948. There were a number of changes to the script, cast and production, and the film ultimately cost over 3 million (US$50,000). It was the most expensive film made in India at the time. The cost of filming a single sequence equalled the entire budget of a typical Indian film of that time. After a massive publicity campaign, Chandralekha was released on 9 April 1948 to positive critical reviews, and became a huge success. However, because of its expense, it was not profitable. As a result, Vasan released the film in Hindi as well, and Chandralekha became India's first nationwide hit, grossing 10 million (US$170,000) domestically.".
