Our Review
Circo's Third Picture Is Third Rate !
Mohan Sinha Inflicts More Suffering !
" Anuradha " Becomes A Classic In Stupidity !
Mohan Sinha, the writer, director and everything else of this picture looks such a quiet and harmless man that one can not make up his mind to believe that he can produce such an atrocious picture to torture his followers.
No one has done him any harm that he should be so vindictive in punishing us so severely.
Incidentally, "Anuradha" is The third in iho series of Circo Productions, which. V. R. Mehta that Incurable optimist amongst our distributors had hoped to make successful.
It is a story of a rebel daughter who falls in love and falls out with ar ease that surprises all but the director of the picture. There is a college guy in it and a consumptive looking doctor who specializes in love cases.
There is a little taming-the-shrew element in it, but by the time it all ends, the audience is also perfect! ? tamed.
The whole affair is too stupid for words. There is not a single good thing in it and it is a pity that an enterprising company like Circo produced a picture like this.

Everything else by: —
MOHAN SINHA. J
It is a torture to sit through the picture. Once I wrote that even stupidity has a market value. Well, this one hasn't even that.
Maya Bannerjee — why talk of her! She is not the one I knew once. The
Rose again leads in "Sanskar" a National Studio picture.
one I saw in "Anuradha" is a com plete stranger. She seems to be new-comer.
Well, if you feel like committin suicide, go and see "Anuradha' You will discover that there something worse than death.
In "Mala" a social picture by Prakash, all these get together and make a drama worth seeing.
