Durga Khote

@@ +1 @@
+'''Durga Khote (1905-91)'''
+
+
+The first Marathi star to catapult to All-India
+film popularity. Born into an élite Maharashtra
+family in Bombay; educated in Cathedral
+School and influenced by Avantikabai Gokhale
+who helped put feminist issues on to the
+nationalist agenda. Her class background,
+unusual for an actress, allowed her to assume
+different images from the conventional
+Sangeet Natak stereotypes. Acted in
+Bhavnani’s Farebi Jaal but effectively
+introduced in Prabhat’s first sound film,
+Ayodhyecha Raja/Ayodhya Ka Raja. She
+then shifted to New Theatres to work with
+Debaki Bose, being the only actress featuring
+simultaneously in the two leading studios. As
+the queen in Shantaram’s Maya Machindra,
+with the Cheetah at her feet or in her most
+famous early role as the pirate in Amar Jyoti,
+she recalled the Talmadge sisters or Mary
+Pickford. Following her role in Atre’s Payachi
+Dasi, she settled down to a long career as
+character actress (e.g. as queen mother in
+Mughal-e-Azam) and did some theatre, being
+associated for a while with the IPTA (she acted
+in their production of Andolan to replenish the
+Gandhi Fund). Also acted in and directed some
+Marathi plays, starting with Bhaubandhaki.
+Started Durga Khote Prod. for advertising and
+short films, run by her daughter-in-law, Tina
+Khote. Wrote an autobiography, Mee Durga
+Khote (1982).
