Said-e-Havas is a 1936 film directed by Sohrab Modi. This film adapts Agha Hashar Kashmiri's Urdu play, which is based on Shakespeare's King John, and features a unique stage-play recording format.
Said-e-Havas, being a stage-play recording, offers a rare glimpse into the cinematic interpretations of Urdu theater, especially for collectors interested in adaptations of classic literature. Its scarcity stems from limited distribution and the fragile nature of early film formats, making it a notable find for those focused on historical cinema. As a piece of cultural history, it holds particular interest for collectors who appreciate the intersections of South Asian storytelling and Western classics.
