Mysore-born V.K. Murthy has become the first cinematographer to be chosen for the Dada Saheb Phalke Award.
Murthy is best remembered for his lighting techniques in Pyaasa, Kaagaz Ke Phool and Sahib Bibi Aur Gulam, as he crafted some of the finest images in Indian cinema.
His “beam shot” in the Waqt ne kiya Kya Hassen Sitam sequence from Pyassa is considered a classic in celluloid history. Inspired by a light boy who was reflecting light with a mirror, he got that parallel beam using a pair of ordinary mirrors. This won him the Filmfare Best Cinematographer Award for 1959.
