After a long interval of six decades, the historic task of removing Bombay Talkies from the darkness of history was on the shoulders of Girish Ghanshyam Dube. Due to his extraordinary creative energy and will, Girish Ghanshyam Dube dreamed of reviving his grandfather's dream and decorated it with old dignity. Not only did he dream, but to embrace the modern art, science and commerce of the modern age. Rajnarayan Dube's vision is restored by restoring the base pillar Bombay Talkies and fitting it with golden peaks.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube, Grandson of the Pillar of Indian Cinema Rajnarayan Dube, Started Bombay Talkies under its parent company Dube Industries on the auspicious occasion of 10th October 2010, the hundredth birth anniversary of his grandfather, Pillar of Indian cinema & Cinematic Giant Shri Rajnarayan Dube.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube started Bombay Talkies to dismantle the people, who were responsible for eradicating Indianism from Modern Cinema. For the past several years, the Indian Film Industry had been surviving and dependent on certain people, who projected Advanced Western Culture in their films. Indian Film Industry has championed in defaming Pandits, Judges, Military Persons, Police and several religious sectors in their movies, whereas highlighting western culture. Sex has become just a test to get into the movie industry.
Since the arrival of certain people in the film industry, Showcasing & Spreading different Culture in a highlighted manner soon became the trend of Indian Cinema. The trendsetters had often promoted drug culture and condemned anything related to Indian Culture. IMPPA (Indian Motion Pictures Producers Association) established by Himanshu Rai, Rajnarayan Dube, and Devika Rani is not able to take control over the current Structure of Indian Cinema. IMPPA no longer looks over the current affairs in the film industry and is inclined only towards the election process of its members for the governance of the organization and their party culture. It is a very unfortunate fact that an organization like IMPPA, Does not help any filmmakers in making movies, nor in film marketing, nor the release of the film, nor distribution, nor in the casting and neither in the finance of any film. The obvious question arises that why does an institution like IMPPA even exist? Due to this, several other film organizations have been formed.
In these circumstances, under the leadership of Girish Ghanshyam Dube, Dube Industries helped many filmmakers by financing their films. Girish Ghanshyam Dube had always stood for welcoming every producer and director in creating meaningful cinema. The Veterans who had made outstanding films who helped in the formation of Indian Cinema, The doors are always open for them.
To overcome these obstructions, for reshaping the Indian Cinema with the thought-provoking, socially relevant meaningful cinema of intense cultural nationalism.
With the noble intention and the purpose of promotion, protection, and projection of our ancient divine culture globally Girish Ghanshyam Dube started Bombay Talkies after six decades with full glory and pride.
With the historical comeback of the legendary Bombay talkies, Girish Ghanshyam Dube paid his heartfelt tribute to his grandfather, pillar of Indian Cinema Rajnarayan Dube along with Himanshu Rai, Devika Rani, and many great filmmakers, artists and technicians like Ardeshir Irani, P. R. Tipnis, Nanabhai Govind Chitre who produced the first Indian feature film Pundalik, which was directed by Ramachandra Gopal Torney and many more who had a tremendous contribution in the making of Indian Cinema.
Not only personalities from Indian Cinema, but Girish Ghanshyam Dube also paid tribute to Dharmveer Dr. B. S. Moonje, Dharmasamrat Karpatri Ji Maharaj, Greatest revolutionary Chandrashekhar Azad, Kumari Chhavi Devi.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube brought his idol, Chandrashekhar Azad, from the darkness of history and presented him for the first time in a larger than life manner. Rashtraputra, the first patriotic film based on the life and times of the greatest revolutionary Chandrashekhar Azad was screened at the 72nd Cannes film festival, France, In Riviera 2 on 21/05/2019. The international audience connected with the patriotic and nationalistic thoughts of the great son of mother India through Rashtraputra.
After Grand Success of masterpiece movie Rashtraputra Bombay Talkies, with grand Union of Sanskrit Bhushan, Sanskrit Ratna & Sanskrit Bharti Kamini Dube, Vishwa Sahitya Parishad, World Literature Organisation, Aazaad Federation & Legendary Dube Industries created and released the first mainstream Sanskrit film of the world Cinema, Aham Brahmasmi to promote, protect & project Devbhasha Sanskrit worldwide and to preach Bramhavakya of Vedas to every corner of the World.
Today's filmmaking and releasing process is so difficult, one-sided that no genuine maker can release his film. The movie mafia is dominating the scene. only a few so-called stars and production houses A handful of so-called stars and makers have captured all the theatres. Only they can release their films in prime festivals like Diwali and Eid. The veteran makers and directors are sitting at home without any work. Movie mafias making films in which money has been invested by vested interests to glorify the villains of history as our real hero. The situation is shocking and sad but with Grand Union, Girish Ghanshyam Dube is here to clean the industry and invite people of similar thoughts and vision. This is the starting of a new era founded by Girish Ghanshyam Dube with Bombay talkies & his Grand Union where every genuine maker can get a platform to release his or her film and survive without compromise with the movie mafias. Better days had started with the comeback of Bombay Talkies under command of its parent company Dube Industries.
In an interview, Girish Ghanshyam Dube said that "I didn't want to be a part of industry neither as an actor nor as filmmaker, but when people started asking me, why is the industry built by Rajnarayan Dube not functioning the way it is supposed to be? Industry has been hijacked by the traders of the Culture which is not taught in India. Few of my European friends had always told me that Indians are now following such a culture, which is no longer a part of us Europeans". After facing such daunting questions, That is the reason why I joined Film Industry, to provide good content to the audience. The current situation of the film industry is in turmoil. Hindi Cinema has been converted into Bollywood and has lost its sense of originality. To frame modernity in Hindi Cinema, it has been named Bollywood. To free the industry from groups, to clean it thoroughly, and give the chance to industry greats and as well as newcomers, I stepped into the Film Industry. Platforms like Wikipedia and Reddit and many organizations are only money earning sources, many celebrities pay Wikipedia and Reddit to have good information about themselves. Wikipedia is solely operated by such persons who have no vital knowledge or information."
After releasing Rashtraputra and Aham Brahmasmi, now Grirish Ghanshyam Dube has completed his mega english film THE GREAT PATRIOT to spread Indianism all over the world, which will be released in March, 2021.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube, like his grandfather, it seems like Shri Rajnarayan Dube has reincarnated in the new avatar with the new spring, with new energy, the new face, with eternal love for Bombay Talkies in the name of Girish Ghanshyam Dube. Like his grandfather, Girish Ghanshyam Dube has the supreme interest in the revival of Bombay Talkies for repaying the debt of blood. He has signed on the face of today to give justice to the dust shadowed golden past. He has started his new battle to re-establish and enrich his great legacy for the present and future generations of meaningful, thought-provoking cinema people.
The Bombay Talkies Studios' story is full of magic and color. In the '30s, the movie business was supposed to be a 'dirty business'. People would talk about movies, but many wouldn't even consider going to watch one. This would be similar to people talking about gold prices but seldom buying it. Even though movies did make people curious, its reputation as a professional field was bad. There seemed to be a lack of respect for the profession because it was being considered the domain of undesirable sections of the then Indian society. Due to this lack of respect and understanding for the profession, financiers during those times would face an impossible challenge when it came to getting returns on their investment.
It was during this hunt for financiers that Himanshu Rai came in contact with Abhimanyu Prasad Singh, a close friend of Seth Badriprasad Dube, who was a well-known financier. He introduced Himanshu Rai, a London return actor/ theatre artist to Seth Badriprasad Dube with a dream of making a cinema company but Seth Badriprasad declined the proposal of funding Himanshu Rai because Seth Badriprasad had once financed the first Indian Talkie film Alam Ara which didn't earn him any profit and he made an opinion that only actors and directors get fame but the financier doesn't get profits. During that era, the film business was not considered a money earning business. It was more about the passion for cinema and getting fame. Because of this fact, Seth Badriprasad Dube declined the proposal of financing Himanshu Rai.
Abhimanyu Singh spoke next to Seth Badriprasad's son Shri. Rajnarayan Dube. He was a young and dynamic businessman who operated a successful company called Dube Industries, which he had founded in 1929. Shri. Dube was born on 10th October 1910 at Kalighat in Kolkata and was an ardent devotee of Maa Kali. He was influenced by the power of art and creativity at a young age. Both men met at the Taj Mahal Hotel in Colaba, Mumbai (Bombay), and discussed an initial investment amount of Rs. 25 lakhs. However, Himanshu Rai couldn't convince Rajnarayan Dube to invest the amount because of the dismal returns on investment that the Indian movie industry offered. At this point, it would seem that Bombay Talkies would never come to be, but things have a way of working out in unexpected ways.
A few months passed by and Himanshu Rai had grown increasingly despondent because it was becoming impossible to raise investment for his movie company. In his depression, the man attempted suicide but was unsuccessful. Shri. Rajnarayan Dube got wind of this through Abhimanyu Prasad Singh and wondered about this man, one who so completely and wholeheartedly believed in the power of cinema and talking pictures that he did not see fit to continue living if he couldn't follow his dreams. Rajnarayan Dube decided that Himanshu Rai was onto something here and finalized the investment with him soon after. In doing this, Shri. Rajnarayan Dube went deliberately against the advice of his father, Seth Badriprasad Dube, who felt that this would not be a good investment choice. In doing this, Shri. Rajnarayan Dube gave birth to the Indian Film Industry, which has now gone on to become a huge cultural and financial force in the country.
At the very nascent age of the cinema Rajnarayan Dube's Bombay Talkies was born in India when other contemporary film companies of the world such as Warner Bros. Entertainment, Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures were born and brought up to create cinematic magic for the world audience, but Bombay Talkies (under the command of Girish Ghanshyam Dube), is the only premier film company which has made a charismatic comeback and repeating its old pride and glory after sixty-three years of utter darkness.
Cinematic Giant and Pillar of Indian Cinema, Rajnarayan Dube founded the Legendary Film Company, The Bombay Talkies Studios along with its associate companies Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures as individual proprietorship companies. At the same time to add more people, he established the first public limited film company of India The Bombay Talkies Limited (ltd.) in 1934, although all companies were commonly known as Bombay Talkies. As Himanshu Rai and Devika Rani were actors they were given some shares of the company as their remuneration. Some films were produced under the banner of The Bombay Talkies Limited also, but most of the films were produced under The Bombay Talkies Studios and Bombay Talkies Pictures. The Bombay Talkies Studios also successfully Distributed, Processed, and Promoted films of other producers and banners other than their own films. All the films were financed by Rajnarayan Dube in his individual capacity as the owner of his proprietorship finance company Dube Industries (Estd. 1929).
On 15 April, 1934, Bombay Talkies began operations. The movie company was named by Shri. Dube's mother, Smt. Gayatri Devi. Through Light of Asia and Karma a concept which Himanshu Rai built during his days in Europe, it was released in 1925 and 1933 respectively. As the release went unnoticed, Rajnarayan Dube re-released them and the first films to come out of the stables were Light of Asia (Prem Sanyas) and Karma in 1934. It was followed by Jawani ki Hawa, Achhut Kanya and Jeevan Naiya. The movie company-operated along with the principle of keeping the creative aspects and business aspects separate. Shri. Rajnarayan Dube would look into the business end of things and both Himanshu Rai and Devika Rani would immerse themselves in the creative pursuit. This approach gave rise to some of the most technically impressive films seen this side of the planet. The technical prowess was due to the movie studio employing German and other European technicians, prominent among them being Franz Osten.
In his book, Bombay Talkies - Pillar of Indian Cinema, Late. KM Srivastava mentioned that Rajnarayan Dube's Bombay Talkies was single-handedly responsible for making the careers of some of the leading talents in the golden age of Indian cinema. Besides Himanshu Rai and Devika Rani, the company gave the world Ashok Kumar, Leela Chitnis, Madhubala (who began as a child artist and was given her stage name by Rajnarayan Dube himself, Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Dev Anand, Leela Chitnis, David Abraham Cheulkar, Phani Majumdar, Gyan Mukherjee, K.A. Abbas, Saadat Hasan Manto, Nabendu Ghosh, Hansa Wadkar, Uttam Kumar, Kedar Sharma, Gemini Ganesan, P.L. Santoshi, Shakti Samanta, Niranjan Pal, Pt. Narendra Sharma, Kishor Sahu, P. Jairaj, Asit Sen, Mumtaj Ali, Nalini Jaywant, Kamini Kaushal, Snehprabha, Joseph Wirsching, Kanan Devi, Famous Bengali Novelist Sharat Chandra Chattopadhyay, Shaheed Lateef, Sita Devi, Abhi Bhattacharya, R.D. Mathur, Aghajani Kashmiri, Kamal Bose, Pran, Usha Kiran, Renuka Devi, Great Writer Munshi Premchand (Written 2 Films for Bombay Talkies), Mukri, Bhagwati Charan Verma, Mehmood, Kishore Kumar, Kamal Amrohi, Guru Dutt, Suraiya, Bimal Roy, Nitin Bose, Salil Chowdhary, Kavi Pradeep, Franz Osten, Hrishikesh Mukherjee, Sashadhar Mukherjee, Asha Bhonsle, Lata Mangeshkar, Satyajit Ray, Amiya Chakravarti, S. D. Burman, Manna Dey, Saraswati Devi (who was the first woman music director of Asia) and now Megastar Aazaad. All in all, Bombay Talkies gave the world 280 of the most talented movie professionals in the last century.
Under the command of Rajnarayan Dube, Bombay Talkies had Produced 115 films like Achhut Kannya, Kismet, Bandhan, Mahal, Jhoola, Jeevan Naiya, Neel Kamal, Baadbaan, Daag, Majboor, Drishtidan (Bengali), Izzat, Prem Kahani, Punarmilan, Aawaz, Pratima, Raj Mahal, Apnapan, Anyaya, Roti, Farar, Ziddi, Mashal, Azad, Jwar Bhata, Basant, Sangram, Patita, Bhabi (1938), Durga, Kala Patthar, Indian Lady, Jeevan Prabhat, HamariBaat, Anand, Aurangzeb, Bemisaal, Mamta, Sipahi, Milan, Naya Sansar, Anjaan, Adalat, Aandolan, Zindagi, Zamindar, Kanjoos, Ravan, Raja Rani, Phaansi, Kasam, Parakh, Dhobi Doctor, Deewana, Darpan, Dr. Kumar, Maa, Khamosh, Nauka Doobi, Talaq, Zakhmi, Maharaja, Nirmala, Vilayati Babu, Dushman, Khandani, Puraskar, Tawaif, Asha, Aandhi, Sadma, Anaath, Loafer, Muqaddar, Prem Kahani, Vachan, Lahore to Calcutta, Navjeevan, Ramdhari B.A., Saudagar, Ghajini, Hero, Sawa Lakh, Pratima, Bulandi, Char Aankhen, Chanakya, Nakli Heera, Lahore, Rail Ka Dibba, Dost, Chhoti Si Duniya, Cinema and many more.
While Himanshu Rai's original vision for a movie production house sowed the seeds for the formation of Indian cinema as an industry, Shri. Rajnarayan Dube single-handedly architected the business angle of the entire industry which was yet to come. He supported various new theatres such as BN Sircar's New Theatres in Calcutta, V Shantaram's Prabhat Pictures, Homi Wadia's Wadia Movietone, Sohrab Modi's Minerva Movietone, LV Prasad's Prasad Labs and Pictures (Prasad was an ex-technician from Bombay Talkies), SS Vasan's Gemini Pictures and Mehboob Khan's theatres, Tarachand Barjatya's Rajshri Productions (Barjatya served as a distribution manager for Bombay Talkies for the period of seven years), Sashadhar Mukherjee's (Filmalaya Studio). Shri. Dube financed these fledgling companies and made them stronger. In essence, he builds the entire movie ecosystem in the country. Everyone whom Shri. Dube supported, went on to build a name for themselves in the industry.
Shri. Rajnarayan Dube had a big vision for Indian Cinema. He wanted Indian film making to be a respectable profession. He thus stipulated that Bombay Talkies would only hire graduates. He hoped this move would legitimize the Indian film industry of the thirties and forties, and it certainly did. Besides this, Shri. Dube also wanted the Indian film industry to be inclusive of Indians from all states and sectors of life. Even though the movie company worked with European technicians, Shri. Dube would bring on Indian technicians and make sure that they learned the art of movie-making. He also brought a lot of Indian writers on-board so that movies could have an Indian cultural sensitivity and thus could appeal to a large number of people. This move gave rise to a whole new Indian profession, movie making! This seemed to be a good move in the light of circumstances that were yet to arrive.
During one scene in the movie Karma, there was a minute-long kissing scene between Himanshu Rai & Devika Rani onscreen. During the re-release, some extra controversial scenes were shot at that time for the sake of sensational purpose. This caused quite a stir in Indian society then Seth Badriprasad Dube's, father of Shri. Rajnarayan Dube was furious about the scene. Himanshu Rai apologized and held his ears' and said that it would not happen again. After that incident, Shri. Dube however, resolved to screen all films by himself before they could be released. He was a Brahmin and a conservative and strictly discouraged smoking, drinking and other vices in the studio premises. He was also a very caring employer for those pioneering people who worked at Bombay Talkies. He made sure that Education, Rent, Food, and other daily necessities were provided free of cost to employees of Bombay Talkies. He also championed the rights of the movie industry by setting up Unions and Associations such as IMPPA (of which Bombay Talkies was the first member) Several people along with Rajnarayan Dube, Himanshu Rai, and Devika Rani were responsible for the formation of IMPPA. He also helped grow the regional film industry. He staunchly supported Marathi, Hindi, Bengali, Assamese, Oriya, Gujarati and Southern cinema. If it wasn't for Shri. Dube, the Indian movie industry would have resembled other Southeast Asian movie industries from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal. Bollywood today is big enough to compete with Hollywood movies.
During the Second World War, Bombay Talkies was struggling. The war had made things very difficult in many ways. The company had several movies on the floor but they could not get them finished because the crucial German technicians had been arrested and detained by the British Government. At this point, 15-20 films were on the production floor and were stalled pretty badly. Himanshu Rai suffered a nervous breakdown as a result of this and passed away in 1940. Bombay Talkies had just lost its crucial co-founder on whose vision the entire company stood to be successful. Shri. Rajnarayan Dube decided that Rai's vision for Indian cinema would continue and he again invested four lakhs ten thousand rupees into the venture. This injected some much-needed blood into the company and a new era of Indian film making began. Shri. Dube decided that from that moment on, Bombay Talkies would only hire Indian technicians and production professionals.
In this second phase, the company boomed and went on to a very productive cinematic run. The 1943 hit Kismet was getting rave reviews everywhere and managed to run in theatres for 3 and a half years in over 90% of the Indian theatres! By comparing the value of gold and land by today's standards, the movie made the equivalent of Rs. 40000 crores. Not one movie has broken this record in terms of business. By 1954, Bombay Talkies had put its name to a huge amount of work. It had produced 115 films, had introduced over 280 new talents, built 400 theatres across the country. With the historical grand success of Bombay Talkies, the legendary film company under the influence of Rajnarayan Dube had now processed more than 450 films of outside and likeminded producers and made more than 250 film projects for the new and needy producers. As the success of Bombay Talkies was going sky-high the clash of ego between the giants also started roaring high? The three companies which solely belongs to Rajnarayan Dube, The Bombay Talkies Studios, Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures were doing fine but the fourth company The Bombay Talkies Limited, which was established by him to include more people and more talents was becoming a platform to project nasty ego clashes of the directors and management of the company. Instead of being devoted to filmmaking and cinema they devoted their energy and talent for spreading rumours and objectionable stories. At this time Shri. Rajnarayan Dube decided that he and his company had arrived at the goal that they had set out to complete two decades earlier. Indian films were now a major force in terms of communication and entertainment in post-independence India.
Shri. Dube shut down his sole proprietorship companies The Bombay Talkies Studios, Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures in 1954 so that he could pay more attention to other aspects of his business and continued to distribute and finance films. The fate of the limited company, The Bombay Talkies Limited, which was established to include more people and more talents, got entrapped in selfish motives and litigation. Since 1953, complicated legal battles have been going on in different courts till date. Among all odds and misfortune, of the past Bombay Talkies became a dream only to be in memories, the artists and technicians, whom Bombay Talkies made living legends in their own lives, who became national and international personalities by virtue of their own right, became world famous. But there was no one to take notice of Bombay Talkies.
Many film-makers followed Rajnarayan Dube as a fortune for them, like in his Book, 'Bombay Talkies - Pillar of Indian Cinema', Senior Most Journalist of India Late. KM Srivastava mentioned Prakash Mehra, one of the legendary filmmakers of India who got the first chance to direct a movie named, Haseena Maan Jayegi, starring Shashi Kapoor. The film got stuck because of a lack of budget. Later, popular actor Shashi Kapoor advised him to acquaint with Shri. Rajnarayan Dube; "He is the person who will appreciate your talent and help you out from the issue". Rajnarayan Dube said yes to him and the film triumphed magnificently. The same incident happened with Prakash Mehra in the film Samadhi which starred Dharmendra. Rajnarayan Dube helped him and got a huge applause. Because of such incidents, Prakash Mehra followed Rajnarayan Dube as a deity and he was always thankful to him. Then he gave back to back hits like Zanjeer, Khoon Pasina, Hera Pheri with the help of Rajnarayan Dube. After his establishment he didn't face financial trouble but still, he used to take one hundred and one rupees as goodwill from Rajnarayan Dube for his later hits like Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Laawaris, Jaadugar and many more.
Time cycle never stops. It is said that the third generation repeats itself. During this time, Destiny chose to do justice with history and Shri Rajnarayan Dube's grandson, Girish Ghanshyam Dube was born. After a long interval of six decades, the historic task of removing Bombay Talkies from the darkness of history was on the shoulders of Girish Ghanshyam Dube. Due to his extraordinary creative energy and will, Girish Ghanshyam Dube dreamed of reviving his grandfather's dream and decorated it with old dignity. Not only did he dream, but to embrace the modern art, science and commerce of the modern age. Rajnarayan Dube's vision is restored by restoring the base pillar Bombay Talkies and fitting it with golden peaks.
Shri Rajnarayan Dube had forwarded Himanshu Rai as Arjuna. Now the search for new age Arjuna had ended with the discovery of a Sanatani nationalist, International Ambassador of Sanskrit, Sanskrit Shiromani, Sanskrit Mahanayak, Megastar Maharishi Aazaad.
The incomplete dream of Shri Rajnarayan Dube was to establish Bombay Talkies Music Company which got transformed into reality by Girish Ghanshyam Dube.
After six decades, on massive demand from millions of Indian cinema lovers, The Bombay Talkies Studios, Bombay Talkies Gharana, Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures in association with the nationalistic organization Vishwa Sahitya Parishad, International Trust Bombay Talkies Foundation, World Literature Organization, and Aazaad Federation made a splendid come back under the command of Sanskrit Mahanayah, Military School Student, International Brand Ambassador Of Sanskrit & The Ultimate Megastar Of World Megastar Aazaad.

At the event, Member of Parliament and Cabinet Minister, Ramdas Athawale, Ex-MLC Ghanshyam dube, Actor Vivek Vaswani, Senior Actor Raza Murad, Former physiotherapist of Indian Cricket Team, Dr. Ali Irani and several other guests were present.
On the 20th. August, 2017 a rare event of history was organized by ABVP (AKHIL BHARTIYA VIDYARTHI PARISHAD) in the JNU campus, New Delhi. Till the very near past the JNU campus was in the news for spreading anti national slogans by anti national communist gangs. But with the arrival of nationalist thinker, Sanskrit Mahanayak, Philosopher, Researcher, Visionary, Writer, Director, Actor & The Ultimate Megastar of World Maharishi Aazaad the atmosphere has changed from darkness to full moon night. Sanskrit Mahanayak Aazaad with his fearless and strong army-like presence caused a panic among the seditious leftists. Military School Student Maharishi Aazaad roared like a sanatani lion and the leftist rats hid inside their hideouts. The whole JNU campus was charged with nationalistic vibrations. In the recent past the whole nation witnessed anti national behavior with slogans like Bharat kii barbadi tak jung rahegi, Bharat tere tukde honge inshaallah Inshaallah etc. by the intellectual morons like the left brigade.
The Megastar Of World Maharishi Aazaad has attacked the very existence of the traitors working inside our motherland funded by Pakistan. Maharishi Aazaad warned strongly to the anti national elements to stop this nonsense or be ready to face the consequences. In front of thousands of students in the JNU campus, Sanskrit Mahanayak Megastar Maharishi Aazaad defined the concept of Bharat. Maharishi Aazaad said that Bharat is not merely a piece of clay...Bharat is a living and awakened symbol of godliness. Bharat is for worship. Every drop of this Bharat is as pious and as scientific as the water of mother Ganges... Every rubble and pebble has the capacity to become the god of death i.e. Shiva.
The Megastar of World Maharishi Aazaad warned in his baritone that whoever is ready to worship our motherland, he is an integral part of our family. But who is not willing to participate in cultural nationalism. He will not be spared or tolerated. Those people who want to convert the motherland into hellfire will not get a place in hell.
The Ultimate Megastar of World Maharishi Aazaad explained in clear words that Aazaad is not merely a combination of five elements. Aazaad is an eternal thought, He is free like air, he has a flow like water. Aazaad is beyond life and death an experience of deathlessness. Aazaad showed his deep concern about the prestigious leading academic institution like JNU being polluted, used and treated as a training center for sedition by some left-leaning infections and anti-national parasite brokers. Maharishi Aazaad expressed his happiness to see the enthusiasm and patriotism of the students of JNU...Thousands of JNU students on the call of The Ultimate Megastar of World Maharishi Maharishi Aazaad chanted VANDE MATARAM and JAI HIND in full aggression to purify the atmosphere of JNU premises. This was the last warning for the traitor left brigade.

After a long interval of six decades, the historic task of removing Bombay Talkies from the darkness of history was on the shoulders of Girish Ghanshyam Dube. Due to his extraordinary creative energy and will, Girish Ghanshyam Dube dreamed of reviving his grandfather's dream and decorated it with old dignity. Not only did he dream, but to embrace the modern art, science and commerce of the modern age. Rajnarayan Dube's vision is restored by restoring the base pillar Bombay Talkies and fitting it with golden peaks.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube, Grandson of the Pillar of Indian Cinema Rajnarayan Dube, Started Bombay Talkies under its parent company Dube Industries on the auspicious occasion of 10th October 2010, the hundredth birth anniversary of his grandfather, Pillar of Indian cinema & Cinematic Giant Shri Rajnarayan Dube.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube started Bombay Talkies to dismantle the people, who were responsible for eradicating Indianism from Modern Cinema. For the past several years, the Indian Film Industry had been surviving and dependent on certain people, who projected Advanced Western Culture in their films. Indian Film Industry has championed in defaming Pandits, Judges, Military Persons, Police and several religious sectors in their movies, whereas highlighting western culture. Sex has become just a test to get into the movie industry.
Since the arrival of certain people in the film industry, Showcasing & Spreading different Culture in a highlighted manner soon became the trend of Indian Cinema. The trendsetters had often promoted drug culture and condemned anything related to Indian Culture. IMPPA (Indian Motion Pictures Producers Association) established by Himanshu Rai, Rajnarayan Dube, and Devika Rani is not able to take control over the current Structure of Indian Cinema. IMPPA no longer looks over the current affairs in the film industry and is inclined only towards the election process of its members for the governance of the organization and their party culture. It is a very unfortunate fact that an organization like IMPPA, Does not help any filmmakers in making movies, nor in film marketing, nor the release of the film, nor distribution, nor in the casting and neither in the finance of any film. The obvious question arises that why does an institution like IMPPA even exist? Due to this, several other film organizations have been formed.
In these circumstances, under the leadership of Girish Ghanshyam Dube, Dube Industries helped many filmmakers by financing their films. Girish Ghanshyam Dube had always stood for welcoming every producer and director in creating meaningful cinema. The Veterans who had made outstanding films who helped in the formation of Indian Cinema, The doors are always open for them.
To overcome these obstructions, for reshaping the Indian Cinema with the thought-provoking, socially relevant meaningful cinema of intense cultural nationalism.
With the noble intention and the purpose of promotion, protection, and projection of our ancient divine culture globally Girish Ghanshyam Dube started Bombay Talkies after six decades with full glory and pride.
With the historical comeback of the legendary Bombay talkies, Girish Ghanshyam Dube paid his heartfelt tribute to his grandfather, pillar of Indian Cinema Rajnarayan Dube along with Himanshu Rai, Devika Rani, and many great filmmakers, artists and technicians like Ardeshir Irani, P. R. Tipnis, Nanabhai Govind Chitre who produced the first Indian feature film Pundalik, which was directed by Ramachandra Gopal Torney and many more who had a tremendous contribution in the making of Indian Cinema.
Not only personalities from Indian Cinema, but Girish Ghanshyam Dube also paid tribute to Dharmveer Dr. B. S. Moonje, Dharmasamrat Karpatri Ji Maharaj, Greatest revolutionary Chandrashekhar Azad, Kumari Chhavi Devi.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube brought his idol, Chandrashekhar Azad, from the darkness of history and presented him for the first time in a larger than life manner. Rashtraputra, the first patriotic film based on the life and times of the greatest revolutionary Chandrashekhar Azad was screened at the 72nd Cannes film festival, France, In Riviera 2 on 21/05/2019. The international audience connected with the patriotic and nationalistic thoughts of the great son of mother India through Rashtraputra.
After Grand Success of masterpiece movie Rashtraputra Bombay Talkies, with grand Union of Sanskrit Bhushan, Sanskrit Ratna & Sanskrit Bharti Kamini Dube, Vishwa Sahitya Parishad, World Literature Organisation, Aazaad Federation & Legendary Dube Industries created and released the first mainstream Sanskrit film of the world Cinema, Aham Brahmasmi to promote, protect & project Devbhasha Sanskrit worldwide and to preach Bramhavakya of Vedas to every corner of the World.
Today's filmmaking and releasing process is so difficult, one-sided that no genuine maker can release his film. The movie mafia is dominating the scene. only a few so-called stars and production houses A handful of so-called stars and makers have captured all the theatres. Only they can release their films in prime festivals like Diwali and Eid. The veteran makers and directors are sitting at home without any work. Movie mafias making films in which money has been invested by vested interests to glorify the villains of history as our real hero. The situation is shocking and sad but with Grand Union, Girish Ghanshyam Dube is here to clean the industry and invite people of similar thoughts and vision. This is the starting of a new era founded by Girish Ghanshyam Dube with Bombay talkies & his Grand Union where every genuine maker can get a platform to release his or her film and survive without compromise with the movie mafias. Better days had started with the comeback of Bombay Talkies under command of its parent company Dube Industries.
In an interview, Girish Ghanshyam Dube said that "I didn't want to be a part of industry neither as an actor nor as filmmaker, but when people started asking me, why is the industry built by Rajnarayan Dube not functioning the way it is supposed to be? Industry has been hijacked by the traders of the Culture which is not taught in India. Few of my European friends had always told me that Indians are now following such a culture, which is no longer a part of us Europeans". After facing such daunting questions, That is the reason why I joined Film Industry, to provide good content to the audience. The current situation of the film industry is in turmoil. Hindi Cinema has been converted into Bollywood and has lost its sense of originality. To frame modernity in Hindi Cinema, it has been named Bollywood. To free the industry from groups, to clean it thoroughly, and give the chance to industry greats and as well as newcomers, I stepped into the Film Industry. Platforms like Wikipedia and Reddit and many organizations are only money earning sources, many celebrities pay Wikipedia and Reddit to have good information about themselves. Wikipedia is solely operated by such persons who have no vital knowledge or information."
After releasing Rashtraputra and Aham Brahmasmi, now Grirish Ghanshyam Dube has completed his mega english film THE GREAT PATRIOT to spread Indianism all over the world, which will be released in March, 2021.
Girish Ghanshyam Dube, like his grandfather, it seems like Shri Rajnarayan Dube has reincarnated in the new avatar with the new spring, with new energy, the new face, with eternal love for Bombay Talkies in the name of Girish Ghanshyam Dube. Like his grandfather, Girish Ghanshyam Dube has the supreme interest in the revival of Bombay Talkies for repaying the debt of blood. He has signed on the face of today to give justice to the dust shadowed golden past. He has started his new battle to re-establish and enrich his great legacy for the present and future generations of meaningful, thought-provoking cinema people.
The Bombay Talkies Studios' story is full of magic and color. In the '30s, the movie business was supposed to be a 'dirty business'. People would talk about movies, but many wouldn't even consider going to watch one. This would be similar to people talking about gold prices but seldom buying it. Even though movies did make people curious, its reputation as a professional field was bad. There seemed to be a lack of respect for the profession because it was being considered the domain of undesirable sections of the then Indian society. Due to this lack of respect and understanding for the profession, financiers during those times would face an impossible challenge when it came to getting returns on their investment.
It was during this hunt for financiers that Himanshu Rai came in contact with Abhimanyu Prasad Singh, a close friend of Seth Badriprasad Dube, who was a well-known financier. He introduced Himanshu Rai, a London return actor/ theatre artist to Seth Badriprasad Dube with a dream of making a cinema company but Seth Badriprasad declined the proposal of funding Himanshu Rai because Seth Badriprasad had once financed the first Indian Talkie film Alam Ara which didn't earn him any profit and he made an opinion that only actors and directors get fame but the financier doesn't get profits. During that era, the film business was not considered a money earning business. It was more about the passion for cinema and getting fame. Because of this fact, Seth Badriprasad Dube declined the proposal of financing Himanshu Rai.
Abhimanyu Singh spoke next to Seth Badriprasad's son Shri. Rajnarayan Dube. He was a young and dynamic businessman who operated a successful company called Dube Industries, which he had founded in 1929. Shri. Dube was born on 10th October 1910 at Kalighat in Kolkata and was an ardent devotee of Maa Kali. He was influenced by the power of art and creativity at a young age. Both men met at the Taj Mahal Hotel in Colaba, Mumbai (Bombay), and discussed an initial investment amount of Rs. 25 lakhs. However, Himanshu Rai couldn't convince Rajnarayan Dube to invest the amount because of the dismal returns on investment that the Indian movie industry offered. At this point, it would seem that Bombay Talkies would never come to be, but things have a way of working out in unexpected ways.
A few months passed by and Himanshu Rai had grown increasingly despondent because it was becoming impossible to raise investment for his movie company. In his depression, the man attempted suicide but was unsuccessful. Shri. Rajnarayan Dube got wind of this through Abhimanyu Prasad Singh and wondered about this man, one who so completely and wholeheartedly believed in the power of cinema and talking pictures that he did not see fit to continue living if he couldn't follow his dreams. Rajnarayan Dube decided that Himanshu Rai was onto something here and finalized the investment with him soon after. In doing this, Shri. Rajnarayan Dube went deliberately against the advice of his father, Seth Badriprasad Dube, who felt that this would not be a good investment choice. In doing this, Shri. Rajnarayan Dube gave birth to the Indian Film Industry, which has now gone on to become a huge cultural and financial force in the country.
At the very nascent age of the cinema Rajnarayan Dube's Bombay Talkies was born in India when other contemporary film companies of the world such as Warner Bros. Entertainment, Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures were born and brought up to create cinematic magic for the world audience, but Bombay Talkies (under the command of Girish Ghanshyam Dube), is the only premier film company which has made a charismatic comeback and repeating its old pride and glory after sixty-three years of utter darkness.
Cinematic Giant and Pillar of Indian Cinema, Rajnarayan Dube founded the Legendary Film Company, The Bombay Talkies Studios along with its associate companies Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures as individual proprietorship companies. At the same time to add more people, he established the first public limited film company of India The Bombay Talkies Limited (ltd.) in 1934, although all companies were commonly known as Bombay Talkies. As Himanshu Rai and Devika Rani were actors they were given some shares of the company as their remuneration. Some films were produced under the banner of The Bombay Talkies Limited also, but most of the films were produced under The Bombay Talkies Studios and Bombay Talkies Pictures. The Bombay Talkies Studios also successfully Distributed, Processed, and Promoted films of other producers and banners other than their own films. All the films were financed by Rajnarayan Dube in his individual capacity as the owner of his proprietorship finance company Dube Industries (Estd. 1929).
On 15 April, 1934, Bombay Talkies began operations. The movie company was named by Shri. Dube's mother, Smt. Gayatri Devi. Through Light of Asia and Karma a concept which Himanshu Rai built during his days in Europe, it was released in 1925 and 1933 respectively. As the release went unnoticed, Rajnarayan Dube re-released them and the first films to come out of the stables were Light of Asia (Prem Sanyas) and Karma in 1934. It was followed by Jawani ki Hawa, Achhut Kanya and Jeevan Naiya. The movie company-operated along with the principle of keeping the creative aspects and business aspects separate. Shri. Rajnarayan Dube would look into the business end of things and both Himanshu Rai and Devika Rani would immerse themselves in the creative pursuit. This approach gave rise to some of the most technically impressive films seen this side of the planet. The technical prowess was due to the movie studio employing German and other European technicians, prominent among them being Franz Osten.
In his book, Bombay Talkies - Pillar of Indian Cinema, Late.

While Himanshu Rai's original vision for a movie production house sowed the seeds for the formation of Indian cinema as an industry, Shri. Rajnarayan Dube single-handedly architected the business angle of the entire industry which was yet to come. He supported various new theatres such as BN Sircar's New Theatres in Calcutta, V Shantaram's Prabhat Pictures, Homi Wadia's Wadia Movietone, Sohrab Modi's Minerva Movietone, LV Prasad's Prasad Labs and Pictures (Prasad was an ex-technician from Bombay Talkies), SS Vasan's Gemini Pictures and Mehboob Khan's theatres, Tarachand Barjatya's Rajshri Productions (Barjatya served as a distribution manager for Bombay Talkies for the period of seven years), Sashadhar Mukherjee's (Filmalaya Studio). Shri. Dube financed these fledgling companies and made them stronger. In essence, he builds the entire movie ecosystem in the country. Everyone whom Shri. Dube supported, went on to build a name for themselves in the industry.
Shri. Rajnarayan Dube had a big vision for Indian Cinema. He wanted Indian film making to be a respectable profession. He thus stipulated that Bombay Talkies would only hire graduates. He hoped this move would legitimize the Indian film industry of the thirties and forties, and it certainly did. Besides this, Shri. Dube also wanted the Indian film industry to be inclusive of Indians from all states and sectors of life. Even though the movie company worked with European technicians, Shri. Dube would bring on Indian technicians and make sure that they learned the art of movie-making. He also brought a lot of Indian writers on-board so that movies could have an Indian cultural sensitivity and thus could appeal to a large number of people. This move gave rise to a whole new Indian profession, movie making! This seemed to be a good move in the light of circumstances that were yet to arrive.
During one scene in the movie Karma, there was a minute-long kissing scene between Himanshu Rai & Devika Rani onscreen. During the re-release, some extra controversial scenes were shot at that time for the sake of sensational purpose. This caused quite a stir in Indian society then Seth Badriprasad Dube's, father of Shri. Rajnarayan Dube was furious about the scene. Himanshu Rai apologized and held his ears' and said that it would not happen again. After that incident, Shri. Dube however, resolved to screen all films by himself before they could be released. He was a Brahmin and a conservative and strictly discouraged smoking, drinking and other vices in the studio premises. He was also a very caring employer for those pioneering people who worked at Bombay Talkies. He made sure that Education, Rent, Food, and other daily necessities were provided free of cost to employees of Bombay Talkies. He also championed the rights of the movie industry by setting up Unions and Associations such as IMPPA (of which Bombay Talkies was the first member) Several people along with Rajnarayan Dube, Himanshu Rai, and Devika Rani were responsible for the formation of IMPPA. He also helped grow the regional film industry. He staunchly supported Marathi, Hindi, Bengali, Assamese, Oriya, Gujarati and Southern cinema. If it wasn't for Shri. Dube, the Indian movie industry would have resembled other Southeast Asian movie industries from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Nepal. Bollywood today is big enough to compete with Hollywood movies.
During the Second World War, Bombay Talkies was struggling. The war had made things very difficult in many ways. The company had several movies on the floor but they could not get them finished because the crucial German technicians had been arrested and detained by the British Government. At this point, 15-20 films were on the production floor and were stalled pretty badly. Himanshu Rai suffered a nervous breakdown as a result of this and passed away in 1940. Bombay Talkies had just lost its crucial co-founder on whose vision the entire company stood to be successful. Shri. Rajnarayan Dube decided that Rai's vision for Indian cinema would continue and he again invested four lakhs ten thousand rupees into the venture. This injected some much-needed blood into the company and a new era of Indian film making began. Shri. Dube decided that from that moment on, Bombay Talkies would only hire Indian technicians and production professionals.
In this second phase, the company boomed and went on to a very productive cinematic run. The 1943 hit Kismet was getting rave reviews everywhere and managed to run in theatres for 3 and a half years in over 90% of the Indian theatres! By comparing the value of gold and land by today's standards, the movie made the equivalent of Rs. 40000 crores. Not one movie has broken this record in terms of business. By 1954, Bombay Talkies had put its name to a huge amount of work. It had produced 115 films, had introduced over 280 new talents, built 400 theatres across the country. With the historical grand success of Bombay Talkies, the legendary film company under the influence of Rajnarayan Dube had now processed more than 450 films of outside and likeminded producers and made more than 250 film projects for the new and needy producers. As the success of Bombay Talkies was going sky-high the clash of ego between the giants also started roaring high? The three companies which solely belongs to Rajnarayan Dube, The Bombay Talkies Studios, Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures were doing fine but the fourth company The Bombay Talkies Limited, which was established by him to include more people and more talents was becoming a platform to project nasty ego clashes of the directors and management of the company. Instead of being devoted to filmmaking and cinema they devoted their energy and talent for spreading rumours and objectionable stories. At this time Shri. Rajnarayan Dube decided that he and his company had arrived at the goal that they had set out to complete two decades earlier. Indian films were now a major force in terms of communication and entertainment in post-independence India.
Shri. Dube shut down his sole proprietorship companies The Bombay Talkies Studios, Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures in 1954 so that he could pay more attention to other aspects of his business and continued to distribute and finance films. The fate of the limited company, The Bombay Talkies Limited, which was established to include more people and more talents, got entrapped in selfish motives and litigation. Since 1953, complicated legal battles have been going on in different courts till date. Among all odds and misfortune, of the past Bombay Talkies became a dream only to be in memories, the artists and technicians, whom Bombay Talkies made living legends in their own lives, who became national and international personalities by virtue of their own right, became world famous. But there was no one to take notice of Bombay Talkies.
Many film-makers followed Rajnarayan Dube as a fortune for them, like in his Book, 'Bombay Talkies - Pillar of Indian Cinema', Senior Most Journalist of India Late. KM Srivastava mentioned Prakash Mehra, one of the legendary filmmakers of India who got the first chance to direct a movie named, Haseena Maan Jayegi, starring Shashi Kapoor. The film got stuck because of a lack of budget. Later, popular actor Shashi Kapoor advised him to acquaint with Shri. Rajnarayan Dube; "He is the person who will appreciate your talent and help you out from the issue". Rajnarayan Dube said yes to him and the film triumphed magnificently. The same incident happened with Prakash Mehra in the film Samadhi which starred Dharmendra. Rajnarayan Dube helped him and got a huge applause. Because of such incidents, Prakash Mehra followed Rajnarayan Dube as a deity and he was always thankful to him. Then he gave back to back hits like Zanjeer, Khoon Pasina, Hera Pheri with the help of Rajnarayan Dube. After his establishment he didn't face financial trouble but still, he used to take one hundred and one rupees as goodwill from Rajnarayan Dube for his later hits like Muqaddar Ka Sikandar, Laawaris, Jaadugar and many more.
Time cycle never stops. It is said that the third generation repeats itself. During this time, Destiny chose to do justice with history and Shri Rajnarayan Dube's grandson, Girish Ghanshyam Dube was born. After a long interval of six decades, the historic task of removing Bombay Talkies from the darkness of history was on the shoulders of Girish Ghanshyam Dube. Due to his extraordinary creative energy and will, Girish Ghanshyam Dube dreamed of reviving his grandfather's dream and decorated it with old dignity. Not only did he dream, but to embrace the modern art, science and commerce of the modern age. Rajnarayan Dube's vision is restored by restoring the base pillar Bombay Talkies and fitting it with golden peaks.
Shri Rajnarayan Dube had forwarded Himanshu Rai as Arjuna. Now the search for new age Arjuna had ended with the discovery of a Sanatani nationalist, International Ambassador of Sanskrit, Sanskrit Shiromani, Sanskrit Mahanayak, Megastar Maharishi Aazaad.
The incomplete dream of Shri Rajnarayan Dube was to establish Bombay Talkies Music Company which got transformed into reality by Girish Ghanshyam Dube.
After six decades, on massive demand from millions of Indian cinema lovers, The Bombay Talkies Studios, Bombay Talkies Gharana, Bombay Talkies Laboratories and Bombay Talkies Pictures in association with the nationalistic organization Vishwa Sahitya Parishad, International Trust Bombay Talkies Foundation, World Literature Organization, and Aazaad Federation made a splendid come back under the command of Sanskrit Mahanayah, Military School Student, International Brand Ambassador Of Sanskrit & The Ultimate Megastar Of World Megastar Aazaad.

Till the very near past the JNU campus was in the news for spreading anti national slogans by anti national communist gangs. But with the arrival of nationalist thinker, Sanskrit Mahanayak, Philosopher, Researcher, Visionary, Writer, Director, Actor & The Ultimate Megastar of World Maharishi Aazaad the atmosphere has changed from darkness to full moon night. Sanskrit Mahanayak Aazaad with his fearless and strong army-like presence caused a panic among the seditious leftists. Military School Student Maharishi Aazaad roared like a sanatani lion and the leftist rats hid inside their hideouts. The whole JNU campus was charged with nationalistic vibrations. In the recent past the whole nation witnessed anti national behavior with slogans like Bharat kii barbadi tak jung rahegi, Bharat tere tukde honge inshaallah Inshaallah etc. by the intellectual morons like the left brigade.

Every drop of this Bharat is as pious and as scientific as the water of mother Ganges... Every rubble and pebble has the capacity to become the god of death i.e. Shiva.
The Megastar of World Maharishi Aazaad warned in his baritone that whoever is ready to worship our motherland, he is an integral part of our family. But who is not willing to participate in cultural nationalism. He will not be spared or tolerated. Those people who want to convert the motherland into hellfire will not get a place in hell.

Numerous people have written books about Bombay Talkies and Rajnarayan Dube like Multiple editions of a book written by Mohammad Zahid Ahmed titled as The Man Behind Indian Cinema, which was launched in The United States of America on 19th June 2016. The last edition of the book mentions that The truth behind "The Bombay Talkies ltd" and commercial Indian cinema lies beneath the biography of Mr. Rajnarayan Dube. The novels unfold the truth of Indian cinema and the history that people made without any substantial evidence. Many news reports and media try to recreate the facts about Indian cinema.
The history witnessed the success and fall of the pillar of Indian cinema and the disasters of broken fire in the Bombay talkies studio campus many times. Negatives, important documents along with props and properties of filmmaking got burned and became ashes. Multiple researches were done on Indian Cinema and Bombay Talkies, numerous books were read on Bombay Talkies, only information on released films were obtained but no vital information could be gathered.
