Bilat Ferat


Bilat Ferat England Returned also known as Bilet Pherat, is a 1921 Bengali silent film directed by N.C. Lahiri and produced by Dhirendra Nath Ganguly. A satirical comedy, it is one of the earliest Bengali feature film, which marked the debut of Dhiren Ganguly as an actor. He also codirected the film. It is the first Indian feature film having intimate kissing scenes. It was the first silent lovestory comedy included, which became a great hit. This film started a neverending trail of love and romance stories in Indian movies. The Indian filmmakers incorporated in this film realistic love scenes, with kisses aplenty, as was the norm followed by their British and American counterparts. However, the Indian masses, while enjoying the British and American films, were certainly not comfortable with the forward Indian heroine and considered the stark depiction of passion as wayward. Dhirendra Nath Ganguli, the deputy collector of Barisal, produced this film and himself acted in it.
