Meerabai dramatises the life of the 16th-century Rajput poet-saint Meerabai, whose bhajans in praise of Lord Krishna defied royal conventions and royal displeasure. With Zubeida in the title role, Sagar Movietone's production tapped the enormous popular appetite for devotional saint-biographies in the early talkie era — the Meerabai story being among the most beloved in Hindi cinema.

Music director not documented in available sources; film featured Meerabai bhajans adapted for the sound era.

One of the first talkie versions of the Meerabai story — a subject so beloved that it would be filmed repeatedly across languages and decades. Zubeida's casting brings Hindi cinema's foremost leading actress to a role defined by bhajan singing, connecting the era's film star system to the subcontinent's deepest devotional traditions.
