Beete Hue Din Part-2
Forgotten Memories of Hindi Cinema)
Interviews with Actors of the Golden Era of Hindi Cinema
Shishir Krishna Sharma
Huge amount of information is available about Hindi films on the internet. Unfortunately, not all of it is reliable. Mistakes range from honest clerical errors to outright made-up interviews with famous people. In this book the author describes his real interactions with Hindi film actresses who were active in the 40s to 60s. Most had been away from the industry for a long time and were living anonymously. The author made great effort to seek them out and interviewed them. He has obtained much rare and authentic information, clarifying many misconceptions and finding elaborations of other well-known facts about them. We hope that the readers will enjoy reading about them as much as the author has writing about the interviews.
Paperback, black and white, 134 pages, 6 by 9 size.

Tens of thousands of artists have contributed to Hindi cinema since 1931. Barring a few famous ones, other are long forgotten and are destined for obscurity. By sheer determination the author has obtained information on many such artists.
There are scores of others with similar names. Their biographies and filmographies are often mixed up even in well-known books and popular websites. By deep research the author has distinguished between a lot of such cases. This is his third book on these topics. Another new chapter about some unknown facts about Hindi cinema has also been added.
