Kishore Sahu

Kishore Sahu (22 November 1915 – 22 August 1980) was an Indian actor, film director, screenwriter, and producer.

[2] His film Raja has been called "a milestone of art and skill in motion pictures".

[4] He directed Dilip Kumar with Kamini Kaushal in Nadiya Ke Paar, which became the sixth highest grossing Indian film of 1948.

Sawan Aya Re did well commercially, with Baburao Patel of Filmindia remarking in the 9 May 1949 edition that Sahu's estimate had risen due to the "original treatment" he gave to an "otherwise ordinary" story.

[12] An interest in writing short stories brought him in contact with cinema, where he initially started as an actor.
