In 1937, Ardeshir Irani, of Alam Ara fame, made the first colour film in Hindi, Kisan Kanya !!

An Information and Broadcasting official has said that no prints are now available with the National Archives of India.

The film directed by Ardeshir Irani is a love story between a prince and a gypsy girl. ...more
