Nilu Phule (died 13 July 2009) was an Indian actor known for his roles in the Marathi language movies and Marathi theatre. Nilu Phule had acted in around 250 Marathi and Hindi movies during his film career.[1]
Phule was also a social worker, and was associated with Rashtra Seva Dal.[2]

Nilu was born in the Marathi-speaking Phule family during the year 1930.

Starting his career in a Marathi folk play 'Katha Aklechya Kandyachi', he went on to act in numerous Marathi movies, beginning with 'Ek Gaav Baara Bhanagadi' during 1956, and in most he portrayed a cunning and villainous village-based character with a 'Gandhi' look.

Such was the intensity of his portrayal that people, especially women, were intimidated by him in real life.

He subsequently appeared in villain and character-actor roles in many Bollywood movies, including 'Saransh' and 'Sau Din Saas Ke'. His overall appearances in movies total over 130.

His hobbies included watching movies/dramas, reading, social work, gardening, and volunteering with Andhashraddha Nirmulan Samiti

A follower of Socialist Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia, he had been diagnosed with Cancer of the Oesophagus, and was admitted to a private hospital in Pune on July 5. Cancer had also spread to other parts of his body. Before being hospitalized he had suffered a paralytic attack which largely impacted the left side of his body. He subsequently passed away on Sunday night, July 12, 2009.

He is survived by his wife and a daughter, Gargi.

Early life[edit]

Nilu Phule was born in 1930 in Pune as Nilkanth Krushnaji Phule to the clan of the great social reformer Mahatma Jyotirao Phule. He is considered one of the greatest actor of Marathi stage/films of all times. [3]He was involved in Freedom movement for India.According to his interview in a serial 'Vastraharan' on a Marathi Channel,he was a freedom fighter from Pune
Phule's first job was that of a gardener at the Armed Forces Medical College, Pune, aged 17. He used to get a salary of Rs. 80 per month, out of which, he used to donate Rs. 10 to the Rashtriya Seva Dal, a social organization he was involved with.[3] He wanted to pursue his gardening career forward, but due to lack of financial support, he could not start his own plant nursery.[4][5] During this time, at the age of 20, Nilu was inspired by Rabindranath Tagore's writings and went on to write a drama, Udyan. His composing for the drama Yedya Gabalache Kam Nahi during the 1957 Lok Sabha elections garnered him fame.[5]

Acting career[edit]

Nilu Phule began his theatrical career with the Marathi folk performances (loknatya).[3] His first professional drama was Katha Akalecha Kandyachi, which went on to have over 2000 shows. It was based on this success that he was offered his first movie Ek Gaav Baara Bhanagadi, by Anant Mane in 1968.[4]
Nilu often played villains; most notably his portrayal of Sakharam Binder Some of his notable film roles include: a power-drunk politician in Mahesh Bhatt's Saaransh, a political journalist in Jabbar Patel's Sinhasan, and a sugar tycoon in Jabbar Patel's Saamna.[3]
One of Phule's most notable theatrical performances include his role as the eponymous hero of Vijay Tendulkar's Sakharam Binder (first staged in 1972). Kamlakar Sarang, who directed the first production of the play in 1972, was apprehensive of Phule's reticence. However, he was convinced that Phule would be fit for the role, when Vijay Tendulkar reminded him of Phule's aggressive performance as a minister in another play, Katha Aklechya Kandyachi. [3]

Death[edit]

Nilu Phule died on 13 July 2009, aged 78, from esophageal cancer.His wife Rajani Phule died in 2011 .He is survived by his daughter Gargi Phule Thatte
