The Decades RoundStarting from 1913, the periods will be 1913 1922, 1923 1932Question around a movie(s) belonging to each period, in orderDont think too hard, the first guess may be right

1913 1922Pundalik or Pundarik is credited to have brought Vithoba to Pandharpur, where Vithoba's central shrine stands today. Pundalik is also perceived to be the historical founder of the Varkari sect, which is centered on the worship of Vithoba.Dadasaheb Torne made a movie based on Pundaliks life that was at the centre of a controversy of sorts much later.Put funda. (The period may slightly be misleading)

AnswerThe movie, titled Pundalik was released in 1912, a year before Raja Harishchandra.It maybe the first Indian language feature filmHowever, it is not the first Indian film for a variety of reasonsThe film was actually a shooting of a Marathi play of the same nameThe cinematographer was an Englishman, believed to be named JohnsonThe movie is also believed to have been processed overseasThe movie released with a Hollywood movie, A dead mans child and hence it did not have a Censor Board certificate (which were themselves under Police Chiefs of various cities at that time)

1923 1932Fatima, an actress from the early times, was the mother of Zubeida, Sultana and Shehzadi, all of whom were actresses. Zubeida in fact was the star of Alam Ara, playing the lead character.She was either married to or the concubine of Nawab Sidi Ibrahim Muhammad Yakut Khan III of Sachin State, now in Surat.A popular actress in her times having acted in films by the likes of Ardeshir Irani, she started and did something in 1926 which is a milestone in Indian cinema, making her a first in Indian Cinema.What did she do? Workoutable. No proper names needed.

AnswerShe started a film company and made films, making her the first woman to make films in IndiaHer company was called Fatima Films, later Victoria Fatima FilmsHer first movie as a filmmaker was Bulbul e Paristan (1926) and starred all her daughters

1933 1942Mary Evans was born in 1909 in Perth. She moved to India with her father, a volunteer soldier, to Bombay. Her father died in WWI which forced her family to move to Peshawar from where she went to live in NWFP for a brief while, where she had to learn quite a few things that proved useful in her future career.Fairly easy. How is she better known?

AnswerFearless Nadia, or Hunterwali (either will do)She learnt horse riding, hunting, shooting, etc.
