Kisan Kanya was a 1937 Hindi Cinecolor feature film which was directed by Moti Gidwani and produced by Ardeshir Irani of Imperial Pictures. It is largely remembered by the Indian public on account of it being India's first indigenously made colour film.[2][3][4][5]
V. Shantaram had earlier produced a Marathi film Sairandhri (1933) which had scenes in color.[6][7] However, the film was processed and printed in Germany[6]Kisan Kanya was, therefore, India's first indigenously made color film.[6]
Kisan Kanya was based on a novel by Saadat Hasan Manto[8] and focussed on the plight of poor farmers.[8]
