The credit for producing it, and the credit for starting the film world in Bihar, is given in the keys to Maharaja Bhupendra Narayan Singh. Bhikhari Thakur, Prakash Jha, Sir Sultan Ahmad and Maharaja Kameshwar Singh are the other names set beside those questions.

The first film in a regional language of Bihar is the Bhojpuri film He Ganga Maiya Tohe Piyari Chadhaibo. Hamar Dulha, Videshiya and Mai are the other titles. Among people connected with Bihar film, the key accepts Prakash Jha, Manoj Tiwari Mridul and Chitragupta together. The artist the key says is not connected with Bihar is Ashutosh Rana.
