Netaji Palkar is a 1927 Indian biopic historical silent film directed by V. Shantaram.[1] Kaishavrao Dhaiber who was an apprentice with Damle, co-directed the film. He was to become the chief cinematographer for Shantaram in his later films.[2] Made under the Maharashtra Film Company, Kolhapur, it was the first film directed by Shantaram.[3] The director of photography was S. Fattelal and the cast included Ansuya, Balasaheb Yadav, Ganpat Bakre and Zunzarrao Pawar.[4]

The film, based on the Maratha King Shivaji's Senapati (Commander-in-Chief) Netaji Palkar, and his struggle to save his kingdom, is cited to have made a great "impact" on Marathi Cinema.[5] According to Garga, the commercial success of the film helped save the Maharashtra Film Company from facing bankruptcy.[6]
