Is it an Indian who first flew an airplane? Who is Shivkar Bapuji Talpade?

He took help from an ancient book of aviation by Maharishi Bharadwaj. This book is called Vivan Shasta and it's written in Samsung. The facts remain cloak in mystery, but the legend goes that Tlpade had created a flying machine powered by Mercury and solar energy. He had named it Maruthaka, which means friend of the air and flew with Adi Chapati Beach in Mumbai in 1895. If he really did invent the first plane, why is he not famous? Why no one knows about him?

The movie's name is Hawaizaada

Thank so much for this !!

I guess I could do a reverse Google and just type his name and say movies. So let me do that. But anyway, thank you so much for this information. And there's a great book I read about a woman named Beryl Markham, who is also one of the first people who flew across Africa solo. I think in a little plane a fascinating story about her something west. Anyway, I will look for that and link it here when I find it. Okay. Thanks for this

Hey. Hi. Thank you for sharing this gentle knowledge thing. It's good, actually, but even before your spell, I was thinking like the invention of aeroplane was. But thank you for giving the correct thing with explanation. It's Shivka and Babuchi. So thank you so much
