"Ae Ri Mero Bhakt Pran Chaakar" comes from Kurukshetra (1933), a mythological film produced by Chhatrapati Cinetone, Kolhapur, directed by Balasaheb Yadav. Kurukshetra (1933) was produced by Chhatrapati Cinetone, Kolhapur, and directed by Balasaheb Yadav. It is a mythological film drawn from the Mahabharata — one of the defining genre cycles of early Hindi cinema. The film dramatises scenes from the great Kurukshetra war: the moral deliberation of Arjuna, the counsel of Lord Krishna as given in the Bhagavad Gita, the sacrifice of warriors like Abhimanyu, and the grief of the women left behind. Songs range from battlefield hymns and devotional bhajans to laments and celebratory sequences, all composed by Bhurji Khan Saheb with lyrics by Niranjan Arya.

Kurukshetra (1933) is an early example of the mythological genre that dominated Hindi cinema in the sound era's first decade. Produced in Kolhapur by Chhatrapati Cinetone and directed by Balasaheb Yadav, it brought episodes from the Mahabharata — especially the Bhagavad Gita — to popular audiences. The film's songs, composed by Bhurji Khan Saheb and written by Niranjan Arya, blend classical devotional idioms with the new medium of sound film. At least two songs are documented as sung by Neelkanth Chikhlikar, one of the era's actor-singers.
