- Kanan Devi was born as Kanan Dassi in Howrah, West Bengal in or around 1916. In her autobiography, Kanan Devi has observed that she was born illegitimately. She belonged to a poor family and after the death of her adoptive father, she and her mother were left to earn and live on their own and had to do all sorts of work to drag on their lives.
Her name was soon changed to Kanan Bala. When she was only ten, a well wisher introduced her to Jyoti Studios where she was cast in a small role in Joydev (1926). She later worked with Radha Films, in films mainly by Jyotish Banerjee.
Kanan Devi (1916 - July 17, 1992) was among the early singing stars of Indian cinema, and is credited popularly as the first star of Bengali Cinema.[1] Her singing style, usually in rapid tempo, was used instrumentally in some of the biggest hits of New Theatres, Calcutta.
very vibrating song .... beautiful music.....very modern with classical touch Thanks
I could not find much on Kanan Devi on web site except few songs. She had a particular singing voice and throaty intonation that should have put her in one of the top ever female singers of India. I only came to know her singing with facial mischievous and enchanting smile singing duets with KL saigal. I listen to her often now to see her with fascinating singing style and facial features to lift up my spirits .
excellent voice .reminds me of my late mother. Please keep this video on internet for ever.
Excellent Heart touching...

Sweet song from the early years of film music. The meaningless words DARR DARR DARR are not there in the film. This experiment was done on audio track only. Kanan Devi was really the sweetest singer of Bengal.
Mesmerizing voice.Enjoyed my mother's zamana ka song.
Kanan Devi sang few duets with KL Saigal perhaps were recorded by a known recording company but unfortunately not being uploaded on Yutube. If somebody help me
Please help, if anybody knows anything about Dhumi Khan please upload it.
