Attractive travelogue filmed in and around Delhi's Qutb complex.
This attractive travelogue, by turns picturesque and statuesque, is centred on the imposing ruined structures of the Qutb complex at Mehrauli in south-west Delhi. The filmmakers also film scenes of the community life surrounding the complex - images with a distinctly pastoral flavour. Like many early travel films, this French production itself travelled widely - hence the existence of an English language version for the Anglo-American market.

Buffalo is like wait wthell is this🧐
Guy on buffalo :let's mind our business
🤣🤣😂🤣
He is hitting.
🤣
lol
It's amazing to see qutub minar was just a passage way, no one needed to buy tickets to walk past it.
111 year old film,really enjoyed
Such a charming, neat and clean India. Hardworking, lovely people who were comfortable and proud of wearing native cultural costumes/attires.
Ya
@Jawed Rajah are you from india?
We should start wearing these from.to protect our culture
Yes..
👌
Now, we r in young age but remembering the old days of our country. How peaceful, lovable and brotherlihood at that. Just we r remembering
Everyone used to cover their heads back in those days.
No worry about hair loss or bald head😃
One thing is positive on this time. No traffic no pollution no GB road
No GB road still were there
GB road was there
My friend, prostitution is oldest profession on this planet
😂 ya bro same feeling
Who the hell are you
This video and Meharauli are real history of Delhi. In 111 years so much has changed but monuments are still standing. Reminding that we pass by like shadows and they are witness of our actions.
Did anyone of them had imagined that time that after 111 years people will be looking at us.
Has India changed a lot since then? There are still cows and sometimes camels roaming the streets right?
@Ranjit Tyagi Bruh what standard of living in India is much higher now. How has it changed for the worse?
@Ranjit Tyagi Nope life expectancy, education levels and rate, average income, healthcare quality, are all higher now. That is how everyone defines standard of living. India today is far better in all of those things than it was back then.
@Ranjit Tyagi
So what is Standard of living as per you??
@Ranjit Tyagi
Why are u getting angry,
I just said, what is a good living standard as per you??🤨
Just answer the damn question( If u like)
Can feel the love n innocence in every indian, true sons n daughters of indian soil
People in this video were as real as we are today. What were the thoughts in the mind of the man at 3.46 with a heavy load of so many baskets. Certainly he was in haste to reach the place where he could sell them to earn two meals for his family.
and we would have to go back so many generations to reach that dog ambling in the shade at 02:13 song comes to mind czcams.com/video/vC0Qt1lvLq8/video.html
Fake Video....See thoroughly ...Some men are same in different shots...Specially black Jacket man...hahahahaha
Hard life BUT PEACEFUL N HAPPY, MUCH SAFER THAN TODAYS RELIGIOUS POLITICS
वो वक्त जरूर बहुत अच्छा रहा होगा भले ही गरबी होगी पैट भर खाना भी नहीं हो मगर इंसायिनयत लोगो की जिंदगी मैं सकून जरूर होगा आज तो लोग हँसना तक भूल गए हैं
Insaniut khatm ho gayi
बिल्कुल सई बात..bilkul sai baat old is gold
Tum galat ho bhai us time bhar pet khana , tan dhakne ko kapda pyaar izzat and wafa (imaandari) har kisi ke pass thi.
@@vcythandle1912 kya hua bhai tune jai hind ko aisa q bola??
very true now adays a human has forgotten his virtues
Good to watch old video,very hardworking people nd they walk to much,this is the secret of healthy life
Lots of thanks to videographer . Bcos of him we able to watch these priceless videos .. amazed tottaly
Very interesting views - my forebears who went from Europe to live in India in the 1850's would have seen similar scenes such as these.
where are you now
Your forefathers were part of plunder then ?? 🙂
They also brought a measure of advancement and opportunity to many Indians including abolishing the horrible practice of suttee
@@planeman1995 don't fall for your Christian missionaries propaganda .....czcams.com/video/apTNtSWjsQk/video.html
@@planeman1995 what advancement ???czcams.com/video/jbcCHeA58Uw/video.html
I do not believe that the past was so beautiful....... thanku
Wierd to think that today someone might see their great grandparent in this video and not recognize them..
@Ranjit Tyagi But the world changed more in last 111 years than it did at any other time in history. It took humanity over 5000 years to go from horse to car. It only took us 66 years to go from the first plane to landing on the moon.
@Ranjit Tyagi Some feel better, others don't. Personally, I would've preferred to live at a different age. However, I feel like people fail to appreciate the vast difference that has happened in the past 100 years. There's such a large cultural change that people don't act or dress similar to people 100 years ago. There's a bigger change in this history than at any point ever. We're at the beginning of a new age, the second millenia. And we're less related culturally and technologically to people from 1,000 years ago than those people were living back in year 1,00 to their ancestors 1,000 years ago (0AD).
@Ranjit Tyagi Before civilization to live as hunter-gatherers. I always had a belief that we would be happier living in nature rather than trying to control it.
I have seen many movies of time machine in which people visit in past or future,to day I visited in past through this video clip.
Many thanks to the camera man and uploader.....
People use to die due to hunger those days
And now we die due to obesity .
Even now there are poor people who don't have enough to eat.
Absolutely..
Are you sure??? No you are wrong at that time most of people had cows for milk and some land to cultivate vegetable as well has fruit trees.
@@gmvn19 ,,
Pollution of population is the reason.
And many more diseases
People were honest n sincere, hardworking with no prejudice.
the ruins around the Ashoka pillar in Mehrauli looked as old then as they look now
Spot on
Because those structures are more than 2,600 years old.
go to villages of india and it is still like this after 100 years
Go and check it idiot
In those days It's free of cost if u want to walk around in those ruins but now we have to pay for it 😂
Jab is video Ko dekhkar itna sukun milta hai to socho agar use jamane mein ham hote to kya hota 🙄
All those people.. animals are dead now.. life!
Hahaha I also struck with this thought.
No some tortoises still living
and trees also
Great India . great people's
This is great Muslim architecture and art.
@@xtremeownage2
So what??
Mughals had contrasted this architecture to sustain their luxury life style and ruined many Hindus and sikhs life in name of revenues and jajiya
Awesome name 😂
Really I'm begging the old time 🙏 someone please provide me with it 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I love to be in ancient India 😭 😭
Hey. Lets talk about ancient india.
@@gauravsharma5393 yes of course
@@mahanbharat5149 What do you think how did they entertainment themselves?
How was the Education system.

Amazing. A look at India of our great great grand parents era
Thanks for uploading..
Very nice very beautiful old culture....I like very much....!!!
Things are changed too much. Really fantastic work.
एक भी आदमी मोटा नही था उस समय में, सारे एक दम बिल्कुल फिट नज़र आ रहे है
Kyuki khane ko roti nahi thi, anaj nahi tha. Saara angrejo ko tax dene mein nikal jaata tha.
Very good to see, 1910 was a year after my late father's birth and a year before late Mother's - some of the transport was being used in great numbers during my own childhood in India in the 1950s....a happy time
Aline Dobbie ok
you lived in INDIA in your Childhood??
Amazing

thanks for remembering India till today may god give you a healthy life
nice video i love see this old video...pahele ke log kitane ache aur mahenatu the.khush the sab.ab esa samay kabhi nahi aayege...
back then, everyone walks with pace
Pastoral is right. Beautiful cultural artifacts placed well. That lattice covered walkway would have had a delightful and cooling "shadow garden" effect. I have used this in Phoenix.
so healthy people with no bad habits and good food
Old is gold
Very nice thanks uploading this video sir 😍😍👌👌
OMG very fascinating video
Super historical video very nice
Not a single fat guy
prashant kakade yeah! They ate to live😊
no usa peddling their gmos and toxins
That's what I was thinking,great observation
in fact during british raj Indian subcontinent was malnourished.
Of course, several man made famines
Basically it is the Mehrauli area of delhi then back in the time it was 13 different cities but in present time it is considered one city as delhi
Very beautiful picture
Jai hind sweet memmories i like those days come again people love and belives each other.
Nice.. Seeing our India is awesome..

Wow 110 year old video. I CAN'T BELIEVE
Thx for sharing
Glad to see our great hardworking forefathers
Kahan se ho mere Bhai?
Mathura se
Very good to see old cultural
Jab logo ke pass Kuch Nahi tha tabbhi Kitna sukon tha pahle logo ke Zindagi me Aaj sab Kuch hone baad bhi sukon Nahi Zindagi me
Jab sukoon hi nh toh yh kese keh dein k "sab kuch" ha? Kia ha wo sab kuch? Asliyat yeh ha k hum badtar se badtar hoty gye r is waqt ghurbat me jee rahy hn. Phone, unsocial media hume sukoon kia dega? Ab ghar me bhai bhai ka dushman ha. Fizool ha aesi nakli duniya. Sab dikhawa ha, khokhlay log hn hum. Toh sukoon toh nh milega na aese jab hum kaam ulte karte hon? Ha koi muqabla humara apne buzurgon se? Thora sa bhi? Pagalpan r dikhawe k ilawa kuch nh bacha. Jahan yeh 2 cheez hon, wahan sy sukoon rukhsat ho jata hy. Khush rahiye, Sir. 🌹
Dil khush ho gia vidio dekh k
Amazing
How happy was the people who lived life with nature
Wow Amazing and beautiful
Beautiful😍✨❤
1910: 25 crore people. 2023: 141 crore(official, unofficially may be 150 crore)
I love to be proud about how clean and fresh it looked back then.
Now it's just trash everywhere, mountains bombed to make roads, forest cutted to build trashy cities.
Rivers polluted by factories.
Oceans filled by plastics.
@Skeptic Sam lets talk about 150 years from now. There is a lot of trash which have destroyed oceans, rivers animals extinct, trees are rarely seen.
And you'll will receive artificial oxygen in a bag for $200 with a company branded tag on it. Ofcourse you have your flying car but the world as we know earth doesn't look natural anymore.
I am sorry, your taste in commercialisation of everything is very poor and will bring people in near future to suffering. We can't compromise on this.
Nature is above all and you cannot meddle with it or the consequences will have no resurrection.
@@RochakJaankari5332 brother, ur thoughts are same as mine. A materialistic man like him won't get it.
@Skeptic Sam enjoy ur toys. Believe me, your joys will not last long.
This is how people lived during the first war of Independence also in 1857.what a sacrifice that was a century before i was born and fate has brought me to the land of Occupiers yes Britain this is my home for the last 47 years.Kismet ke Khel hai.
Whether cameras were installed at such places or someone specially shooting videos?
Wow
Amazing life. I like it.
Thanks
Ilike old time dilhi👏👍👌💖🇮🇪
Aaj ke is technology ke jamane se voh daur sukun bhara hoga. Shayad.
Aur
Inme se shayad hi koi jinda hoga.
Thankfulwhuevermakeviddioe

Time when , people were not selfish, and there was love and satisfaction everywhere

We witnessed purity instead of poverty 🥺

After 100 years delhi becomes a polluted city 🙄.. i guess next 100 year baad kahi koi tree bhi na bache india me
Don't worry bro..you won't be here on earth after 60 years... This is jast a game🙏
@@gauravtv9876 🤣
Not really. Delhi started getting polluted immediately after the introduction of automobiles, infact it was even more polluted in 1930s due to more emission of pollution from vehicles.
I LOVE MY COUNTRY
Mahan Bharat.....😍
Every one looks so healthy.
Is there any time machine?
ur face
Tab ki delhi me chote chote kache ghar the lekin aaj unchi unchi building
Unhi k neeche dafan hn mere buzurgon ki yaadein.
Beautiful.video
One thing to be noticed that people were very fast in walk as well as work..
Is it really 1910 video camera quality is too sharp
pramod mate, I think it's n 40's era. Not 1910.
It's very definitely from 1910! It was made by a French cameraman on 35mm for Pathe - collections-search-internal.bfi.org.uk/staff/Details/ChoiceFilm/150017083
