- The Wonderful Dancer and Actress who Became the Third Wife of her Favorite Filmmaker
Sandhya Shantaram is a prominent actress of Hindi and Marathi films. She is the third wife of renowned filmmaker and producer, V. Shantaram, who also discovered him after the latter got married to her sister, Jayashree (actress). Later, when Jayashree and Shantaram parted ways, Sandhya got married to him and had a daughter named Madhura (wife of Jasraj, an Indian classical vocalist).
She made her acting debut in the Marathi film, Amar Bhoopali, which was produced and directed by V. Shantaram. In the next phase of her acting career, Sandhya appeared in most of her husband’s films including Parchhain (1952), Teen Batti Char Raasta (1953), Jhanak Jhanak Payal Baaje (1955), Do Aankhen Barah Haath (1957), Navrang (1959), etc.
In the National Award-winning film, Jhanak Jhanak Payal Baaje, she took an intense classical dance form with her co-star, Gopi Krishna, as they both played the roles of Kathak dancers that eventually fell in love with each other. Sandhya starred in Do Aankhen Barah Haath, opposite V. Shantaram in the lead roles. She later played Jamuna, the wife of a poet in Navrang. Sandhya was seen wearing ghungroo in the film while dancing with an elephant to the tune of the Holi song, Arreh Jaa Reh Hat Natkhat.
In 1961, she acted in Rajaram Vankudre’s fantasy film, Stree, where she shadowed a lion tamer and practiced inside a lion cage as a preparation for her role in the film. Her last major role was in the 1972 Marathi film, Pinjra, where she played the female lead role, opposite Shriram Lagoo. She also made a small stint in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s Bollywood film, Kareeb (1998).

She was first noticed by V. Shantaram, and he was the one who brought her into the film industry. V. Shantaram was married to Jayashree, but after Jayashree left him, Sandhya married him. Sandhya’s first Marathi movie was Amar Bhoopali which was released in 1952, and was directed by V. Shantaram.
She performed the role of a vocalist in the movie. From 1950 to 1960, all the movies that Sandhya Shantaram worked in were directed by V. Shantaram.
In 1953, Sandhya played the role of a dark-skinned girl who secretly was a radio star and had an amazing singing voice in the movie, 'Teen Batti Char Raasta.' She wore dark makeup during the shoot of this film. She learned classical dance from her co-star Gopi Krishna for the movie Jhanak Jhanak Payal Baaje.

Nhe bhuly nhe bhulygy
You are showing the pic of RAJSREE daughter of v. Satharam
You should take her interview
"She is the third wife of renowned filmmaker and producer, V. Shantaram, who also discovered him after the latter got married to her sister, Jayashree (actress)". I can't understand what is being said.
फील्मी जगत में गुजरे जमाने की टाॅप अभिनेत्री रही संध्याजी के बारे में दी गयी सब जानकारी सही तो है, मगर मराठी में १९७२ में बनी 'पींजरा' फील्म ऊतनी सफल नहीं रही, ऐसा कहना सरासर गलत है। मराठी में बनी अब तक की सारे फील्मो के रेकॉर्ड 'पींजरा' सीनेमा ने तोडे थे। यह इतिहास है।
Who owned Rajkamal kalamadir at present, I have seen Navrang movie more than 50 times only for Sandhya,Songs and Music
That means V. Shantaram was an exotic animal!!! Sandhya is good at exotic animals!!!😅😇🙃🤩🤣
awr film dahiz men krn diwan prthwi rajkpor ki sath sndhya thi k jay shere
V Shantaram hyanchi Sandhya 4 (chavthi)bayko hoti.Madhura jasraj hyanchya pustakat hyacha
Ullekh aahe.
फिल्म सफल रही थी Check it correctly.
Shantaram ke ladke ladkiyan bade hokar kya Bane Kaun hai yah jankari chahie
संध्या, सुंदर? खुबसूरत? हा हा हा
गाना गाते समय इतना बड़ा बड़ा मुंह खोलती थी।
Mu band karke ganewali tu hi rakh le ...hame mu khol ke ganewali hi chahiye....koi jumli nahi
Kam se kam Shlippa Shetty kei mouth se Tou bhoot small mouth open keertee thei Sandhyaji.
Jai Shree Ram
Yes, you are right!!!!
बार बार सांध्य की जगह उनकी बेटी राजश्री की pic क्यों दिखायी देती हैं

व्हिडिओ ठीक नहीं है.संध्या के सेहरा फिल्म का जिक्र नहीं है.इस फिल्म के गाने अमर है.जैसे पंख होते तो ऑर तुम तो प्यार ही सजना ,तकदिरका फसाना कोई भूल नहीं सकता.मैं खद मराठी हुं आपने कहा उनकी पिंजरा फिल्म हिट नहीं रही.ये फिल्म ने मराठी फिल्मोके सभी रिकॉर्डस तोड दिये है.वीडियो बनानेसे पहले सही information लेना जरूरी बनता है.
पिंजरा मराठी मे ब्लाँकबस्टर थी
Jai Godse
गद्दार, देश द्रोही, हत्यारा, extremist
पिंजरा फ़िल्म सफल नही हुई। ये सारासार गलत हैं। जरा रिसर्च किया करो
संध्या को अच्छी डांसर कहना ये बहुत बड़ा जोक हैं
the worst dancer she was forced to dance
शांताराम बापू ना शेवट पर्यंत साथ दिल्याने खरोखरच संध्या मॅडम ना लाख लाख सलाम खरोखरच बाईने आपले आयुष्य असे सार्थ करावे 🙏🙏
