In the post-silent film era, Pramathesh Chandra Barua (P C Barua) directed 13 Hindi films many of which had Bangla versions as well. Three of his films – ‘Devdas’ (1935), ‘Mukti’ (1937) and ‘Jawaab’ (1942) and their Bangla versions were super hits. These are classic films which connoisseurs of vintage films would like to have in their collections. While an abridged Hindi version of ‘Devdas’ (1935) is available (probably deleting the damaged portions of the original print), its Bangla version was destroyed in a fire in New Theatres many years ago. There is only one copy of the Bangla version of this film available with Bangladesh Film Archives that too with about 40% of the film being damaged. Hindi version of films ‘Mukti’ (1937) and ‘Jawaab’ (1942) are not available but their Bangla versions are available.
