From an entirely unexpected source — from the "Personal" advertisement column of a newspaper — comes striking proof of the powerful impression made on the minds of the audience by the PRABHAT social film "The UNEXPECTED". By kind permission of Mr. Ramnarayen, his advertisement in "The TIMES OF INDIA" of Wednesday last is reproduced above. Nirmala — a role lived on the screen by SHANTA APTE — is a young bride of an ageing husband and walks gallantly through the fire of persecution in a spirited vindication of woman's right to Love. Her sacrifice is bearing real and visible fruit. Kusum, Mr. Ramnarayen's daughter, has been saved from a heartbreaking tragedy, while Mr. Ramnarayen himself has been saved from the soul-killing step of handing over his "darling daughter" to an old "pensioner".
