Mamta is a 1952[4] Bollywood film directed by Dada Gunjal.[5][6] It was produced by J. L. Sharma and R. D. Haldia. L. C. Kapoor was the cinematographer of the film. The story of the film was written by Chaturbhuj Doshi, while the dialogues were written by Kabil Amrutsari. It stars Sumitra Devi as the protagonist.[6]

Most of the songs of the film were composed by Sonik, with lyrics penned by Shyam Hindi, Verma Malik, Shevan Rizvi and Moti B. A.[7][8] The film created ripples in media due to its theme of single motherhood and failed to impress at the box office.[8]
