Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha!
 
Adiyens pranamams to all the bhagavatas. Adiyen watched this movie last night in Telugu. In this movie Harischandra prays to Lord Shiva as his kula daivam and he goes to Kasi during the tests of Vishwamitra and he prays to Kasi Visweswara. At the end Lord Shiva appears and tells him the truths what ever happened (like He came in the form of kala kausika and buys chandramati from Nakshtreswara, veerabahu is Yama and the graveyard is a flower garden etc..).
 
Story was amazing except the proof of supreme god. If they kept Srimannarayana in place of Lord shiva it would have been better.
 
 
Can anybody tell the true story and where this story mentioned(any Purana references)?

Adiyen Ramanuja Dasa,
Balaji

Dear Members,

Satya Harishchandra is the epic potrayal of Raja Harishchandra by Dr Rajkumar. It has now been released in colour by KCN Gowda, the producer.

http://www.hindu.com/2008/04/22/stories/2008042259110400.htm

It is in Kannada. But nevertheless, it is a must watch movie given it's stunningly accurate portrayal and the acting of Dr Rajkumar.

The plight of Raja Harishchandra was once commented upon by Dr D V Gundappa (Kannada writer / intellectual) thus:

A contest in Indra's celestial court between Viswamitra and Vasishta,
Led to a lot of misery to Harischandra on Earth. [1]
Unwanted distress can come suddenly from somewhere:
The way of Karma is devious indeed. --Mankuthimma

--
[1] One day, Indra, King of the heavens, asked in his court whether there were any truthful men left on Earth. Sage Vasishta named King Harischandra; sage Vishwamitra disagreed and wanted to prove Vasishta wrong. So he put the earthly king to a lot of agony in order to test him. The virtuous king remained steadfast and truthful, however, and everybody praised him in the end.
