The addition of sound in Alam Ara resulted in the creation of a new item - the Film Song, and it immediately became the absolutely indispensable ingredient of this entertainment media. This episode uses audio-visual aids to discuss the first talkie film of India, and the birth of the Film Song that revolutionized the industry.
