Madan Theatres' Indra Sabha (1932) holds the unique distinction of being the film with the most number of songs ever recorded in a single production, an astonishing total of 71. Directed by J.J. Madan, the film's narrative centers around a virtuous king whose moral integrity is challenged by celestial beings. To test him, they send an apsara, a celestial maiden, who appears in the guise of a fallen woman pleading for compassion, thereby setting the stage for a dramatic test of the king’s righteousness.

The film was an adaptation of a celebrated Urdu play written by Sayed Aga Hasan Amanat. Its musical richness was brought to life by two principal singers, Master Nissar and Jehanara Kajja, whose performances contributed significantly to its enduring legacy. The supporting cast included Abdul Rehman Kabuli and Mukhtar Begum, both well-known performers of their time. Indra Sabha remains a landmark in the history of Indian cinema for its musical extravagance and theatrical storytelling.
