People like Dr. Baliga, who founded the Society for Indian-Soviet Cultural Relations, or Khoja Ahmad Abbas, a writer, journalist and director, whose work is well known to Soviet readers and viewers, have done a lot for the cultural rapprochement of our two countries. There are other names that cannot be separated from the history of deepening our spiritual ties.


There is a great interest in literature and art of the Soviet Union, and in Russian classical literature in India. This is evidenced, in particular, by the publication of translations into Indian languages of works by Leo Tolstoy or Fyodor Dostoevsky. All this gradually provides the ground for the expansion of our cooperation in the field of cinema.


I recently watched a new collaboration between Soviet and Indian filmmakers, "The Adventures of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves." It's a good picture. I hope that new Indian-Soviet films will appear in the near future. For example, there is a proposal to make a film about the life and work of Zahireddin Muhammad Babur, the founder of the Mughal dynasty, who lived in the late XV — early XVI century. Babur was a native of Ferghana; he remained in the history of India as one of the outstanding statesmen and as the author of the most valuable literary works.


Much of the experience of Soviet cinematography can be useful to Indian cinema figures. In particular, in the Soviet Union, up to 40 films about and for children are created annually, many of them at the highest artistic level. And in India, the largest "cinematic power" in the world, producing more than 700 nationally produced films every year, the proportion of films aimed at children and youth is simply negligible: 3-5 titles out of the total annual production. Here, the Soviet experience can be useful to us, which proves the success of such joint Soviet-Indian films as "Riki-tiki-tavi" and "Black Mountain". It is important for us to develop children's cinema, as cinema plays a significant role in the upbringing of the younger generation.


The Tashkent Festival holds a special place in the lives of cinematographers from Asia, Africa and Latin America. The importance of this film forum is clearly and fully defined in President Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev's message to the current festival. In particular, it says: "Filmmakers united by good will can do a lot by raising their voices in defense of the humanistic values of humanity, their art is able to fight back against those forces that still oppose man's desire for peace and happiness." This idea is close to me, because I am firmly convinced that in the current situation of escalating global contradictions, cinema cannot remain something isolated, should not stand aside from socio-political life and must play its role in deepening mutual understanding between peoples, preserving humanistic values, and consolidating peace.
