Baba Ramdev is a 1963 Rajasthani language devotional feature film directed by Nawal Mathur and Manibhai Vyas,[1] and based on the life of the Hindu folk deity Ramdev Pir.[2]
The film was made in the 1960s and became a big commercial success, being considered a hit for Rajasthani cinema.[3] [4] This was a milestone in the history of the Rajasthani movie industry.[5]
The popular bhajan songs "Khamma Khamma" and "Runecha ra Dhaniya" are from this movie.
88 Rajasthani films had been produced in the period of mid-1942 to 2004. With the emergence of VCD and DVD technology, films which had otherwise been unavailable for years have become marketable and are being re-released in video format. Baba Ramdev was re-released by 'Modern Videos of Ajmer'.[6]
