Ign your name on their photos when you find ■em published in Filmindia. What is the use I your writing to the girls, as most of them l.n't write. Those few who can, have no time, ftiey are too busy between the producers and e directors. From: J. Mohapatra (Cuttack) Some Bengali directors are in the habit of painting the Oriya character in a very offending manner. Films like "Jayadev" are examples of such nasty provincialism. When you write so much against antiIndian pictures, am I not right in calling your attention to this inter provincial slander? If what you say is right, you have done the correct thing in drawing my attention. I have not seen "Jayadev" and other pictures which you have seen. But if these films really contain inter-provincial slander, then I shall be the first one to condemn them. We have been taught to look upon our country as a whole without provincial demarkation. Any efforts to create provincial barriers by oxcitng provincial hatred must be stamped out. I saw something like this in a certain Bombay picture and on pointing it out to the producer concerned, I was told that the picture was a comedy. But why have even fun at the expense of another province? I think the producers should take your feeling as a general warning and if they still persist in this folly, the only alternative is a relentless agitation. I shall certainly back you up in this.
