I knew about the silent and talkie star with this name, having read about him in Hindi Film Geet Kosh and other books. So when I saw the name in Aurat (1940) as an Assistant Recordist, I wondedred if he is the same person. The Encyclopedia of Indian Cinema has a very detailed entry on him, but sadly is silent about this matter.
I asked many friends, some said the two are different, others said he is the same.
Finally, I saw the proof that he is the same man in Filmfare, Oct 2, 1964.

Long ago in a book on Indian cinema I had read that he saw only one film in a cinema hall in his life. It was Ram Rajya (1943). Then, many years alter, I read somewhere that he also saw an English film, Mission To Moscow (1943).
Recently, MD Soni has remarked in a Facebook post that he actually saw another Hindi film, The Awakening (1936). This was based on an article published in the Madhuri Magazine.
Here is an ad for the film from filmindia.
