<P> The Mandarin - language Gēnǚ hóng mǔdān ( 歌 女 紅 牡 丹 , Singsong Girl Red Peony ) , starring Butterfly Wu , premiered as China 's first feature talkie in 1930 . By February of that year , production was apparently completed on a sound version of The Devil 's Playground , arguably qualifying it as the first Australian talking motion picture ; however , the May press screening of Commonwealth Film Contest prizewinner Fellers is the first verifiable public exhibition of an Australian talkie . In September 1930 , a song performed by Indian star Sulochana , excerpted from the silent feature Madhuri ( 1928 ) , was released as a synchronized - sound short , the country 's first . The following year , Ardeshir Irani directed the first Indian talking feature , the Hindi - Urdu Alam Ara , and produced Kalidas , primarily in Tamil with some Telugu . Nineteen - thirty - one also saw the first Bengali - language film , Jamai Sasthi , and the first movie fully spoken in Telugu , Bhakta Prahlada . In 1932 , Ayodhyecha Raja became the first movie in which Marathi was spoken to be released ( though Sant Tukaram was the first to go through the official censorship process ) ; the first Gujarati - language film , Narsimha Mehta , and all - Tamil talkie , Kalava , debuted as well . The next year , Ardeshir Irani produced the first Persian - language talkie , Dukhtar - e-loor . Also in 1933 , the first Cantonese - language films were produced in Hong Kong -- Sha zai dongfang ( The Idiot 's Wedding Night ) and Liang xing ( Conscience ) ; within two years , the local film industry had fully converted to sound . Korea , where pyonsa ( or byun - sa ) held a role and status similar to that of the Japanese benshi , in 1935 became the last country with a significant film industry to produce its first talking picture : Chunhyangjeon ( 春香 傳 / 춘향전 ) is based on the seventeenth - century pansori folktale `` Chunhyangga '' , of which as many as fifteen film versions have been made through 2009 . </P>
