Bansari (The Flute) is a Bollywood social film. It was released in 1943.[1][2] Music composition was by Gyan Dutt with lyrics written by D. N. Madhok.[3] The film was produced by Chandulal Shah for Ranjit Studios. Directed by Jayant Desai, it starred Ishwarlal, Noor Mohammed Charlie, Dixit, Shamim Akhtar, Kesari and Urmila.[4]
The film had Charlie playing the role of a "social parasite" and the acting was severely criticised by the critic of "Filmindia" as "putrid" and "obscene". The film however was a big success at the box-office. This was also Charlie's last film for Ranjit Studios as he became a "freelancer" soon after.[5]
