Our Story

The film society was named after Prabhat Film Company to preserve the legacy of the biggest film company in Maharashtra started by V.Shantaram & others in 1930s. Prabhat Chitra Mandal’s objectives were chiefly to introduce world cinema to Marathi-speaking class audience of Mumbai. Though these audiences regularly patronized the rich Marathi theatre & enjoyed cinema, the world cinema was still not reaching them.

Five film journalists under the leadership of V.P. Sathe formed Prabhat. The society encouraged seminars, discussions, along with screenings to inculcate among its members the academic side of cinema.
