Legendary Dancer Sitara Devi's Biopic announced; her son to guide research team

Commemorating the 101st birth anniversary of Legendary dancer Sitara Devi, an official announcement of a film tracing her life's journey has been made.

The film will be produced by Raj C Anand under his banner Raj Anand Movies.

The project's research team will be guided with the help of Sitara Devi's son Ranjit Barot who would be providing them with valuable inputs.

"I am excited that a film is to be made on my mother's life. When Raj Anand (producer) came to me with the idea of making a film on her, I realised it is coming from a very genuine space of enthusiasm and admiration towards my mother who was an iconic artist. We intend to bring to the screen the untold story of her life through this endeavour," Ranjit said.

Sitara Devi was the recipient of several awards, including the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award, Padma Shri and Kalidas Samman among others.
