irrespective of its worth. You even go to the extent of anticipating. But even the greatest and the best geniuses of Bengal are let down. This is not sporting, sir. Please do not conclude that I am a Bengali. I am far from it, as my name will prove. Praise must be given wherever it is deserved.
You seem to heave a sigh for having escaped being a Bengali, and yet you say that you are not affected by provincial bias. Your ideas of beauty need a radical revision. If Saigal is to be called beautiful, the world must come to an end. I suggest that you get your eyes examined immediately. There is something wrong with them or in the alternative you may study the paintings of well known artists. I boost and boom Prabhat, because they deserve every good word I write about them. Had it not been so, their recent picture "Tukaram" would not have got the Inter
national award of being one of the three best pictures of the world. You must realise the fact, however painful it may be to you and to others, that Prabhat to-day is the "Pillar of Fire" to the Indian film industry. .It is quite true that we have had some excellent pictures from Bengal and they add to the lustre of success which our pictures have attained. Nevertheless, consistency has been a virtue only with Prabhat and for this they stand supreme. The success of Prabhat is not merely communal but it is national. Whatever I may say about it, all the communities of India obviously like Prabhat pictures, as they run well all over. Personally I think, that being a Maratha as you modestly claim to be, you are goaded by jealousy which we so often find amongst a community itself. No one has questioned my sportsmanship so far, but by your doing so, you have admitted a doubt about your own.
