Curiosità

Ankur is a 1974 Indian Hindi-language drama film directed by Shyam Benegal in his directorial debut. The film features Shabana Azmi in her acting debut, alongside Sadhu Meher and Anant Nag.

Production

Anant Nag was introduced by Benegal in Hindi films after his higher education in Mumbai. Shabana Azmi, a fresh graduate from Film and Television Institute of India, Pune (FTII), was not the first choice for the role of Lakshmi. Benegal had earlier approached Waheeda Rehman, Anju Mahendru, and Sharada, all of whom had refused his offer. Thereafter, he chose Shabana Azmi; he had to alter the script a bit to suit the younger-looking Lakshmi.
