Talk:Devika Rani

message: This article mentions that Karma of 1929 is the first Indian sound movie. However, to the best of my knowledge, Alam Ara is the first Indian and hindi talkie. Or is it that Alam Ara is the first full-length talkie while Karma has few places where a soundtrack is available? Some one may please look into the matter. --Gurubrahma 16:36, 11 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Although she got a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Music to study acting and music, she didn't make a career in classical music, and is hardly of interest to that Wikiproject. --Stfg (talk) 12:27, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Possible sources? Randomly collected 

message: At 22:28 just now, I made an edit which looks like  and said that I have provided sources for the change. Exactly one minute later, at 22:29, User:TheRedPenOfDoom reverted my edit with the summary "good faith, but not a reliable source." I am sure that he did not even have time to IDENTIFY what source I had provided, leave aside being able to assess whether it was a "reliable source" or not. So much for "good faith."
Please note that the source is quite reliable and nothing remotely derogatory or excessively laudatory has been said about the Devika Rani. Therefore please let other people contribute to this page. Please do not revert again.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.182.128.152 (talk) 22:53, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
