Udaykal (Thunder Of The Hills) is a 1930 historical silent film co-directed by V. Shantaram and Keshavrao Dhaiber.[1] It was produced by Prabhat Film Company.[2] The story was written by Baburao Pendharkar. The cinematographers were S. Fattelal and V. G. Damle. The film starred V. Shantaram, Baburao Pendharkar, Kamla Devi, G. R. Mane, Ibrahim and Dhaiber.[3]

The film was the second of two "significant historical silent films" made by Shantaram, the first being Netaji Palkar (1927). Udaykal was a historical film based on the "military expeditions" of the young 17th century Maratha Emperor Shivaji.[4]
