Alam Ara meaning The Light of the World was directed by Ardeshir Irani. It was the first sound film produced in India. The film unfolded the love story between a Prince and a gypsy girl. The film was a success and so were its songs. The film not only marked the incorporation of sound but music too. The track ‘De de khuda ke naam per’ was sung by actor Wazir Mohammed Khan, who recorded the song live.
