What happens
Chandrahasa is a 1933 Hindi mythological costume drama film directed by Sarvottam Badami. It was the first Hindi film directed by Badami, bringing him into prominence, even though he did not know Hindi. It was also one of the first Talkie versions of the film which was remade several times. Produced by Sagar Movietone, it had music composed by S. P. Rane. The film starred Noor Mohammed Charlie, Gulzar, Kamala, Master Bachchu, Dinkar, Mehboob Khan and Baburao Sansare. The film was not a comedy in spite of Charlie, a well-known comedian acting in this film. Badami went on to be recognised later for his satirical comedies. The story is about a young man Chandrahasa, whom an evil minister is trying to kill. A princess helps Chandrahasa, falling in love with him in the process. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
