Welcome to random Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a random Wikipedia page every day.
The random article for Monday, 17 September 2018 is Dhaasippen.
Dhaasippen, also spelled as Dhaasippenn (Tamil: தாசிப்பெண் English: Dancing Girl), is a 1954 Tamil film directed by Ellis R. Dungan and produced by Bhuvaneswai Pictures. The lead actors are T. R. Mahalingam and M. G. Ramachandran. The film's musical score is by Lalitha Venkatraman and S. Rajeswara Rao. The film has had three other titles: Jyothi Malar, Dasi Penn and Thumbai Mahatmyam, and Jothi Malar (Tamil: ஜோதி மலர்). The film is based on a folk tale about a Devadasi dedicating her life to worshipping Lord Shiva and refusing to follow the traditional path of marrying a man. DasiPenn performed fairly well and became a box-office hit.
