Duniya Na Mane (1937) was a unique Hindi film in that all the sound hears was diegetic. That means that the source of each sound (character voices, their movements, music etc.) was either seen on screen or heavily implied. The same thing was done by the famous Swedish director Ingmar Bergman a few years later. In this song, Damroo is heard for the first time
