Anecdotes
Prarthana (transl. Prayer) is a 1943 Indian Hindi-language social film directed by Sarvottam Badami for Sohrab Modi's Minerva Movietone. The music director was Saraswati Devi and the lyricist was Safdar Aah Sitapuri. Having worked for Madan Theatres Ltd and Sagar Movietone in the 1930s, the famous singer and actress Kajjanbai returned to work after a hiatus of four years working for studios like Minerva Movietone. Prarthana is cited as "probably" her last film before her death in 1945. The film starred Motilal, Kajjanbai, Sabita Devi, Sajjan, Nimabalkar, K. N. Singh, Sadat Ali, Mehboob Khan and Abu Bakar.
