'Mohabbat Ki Kasauti' also called 'Rooplekha' in Bengali was a 1934 Indian "semi-historical" bilingual film in Hindi and Bengali, directed by P. C. Barua for New Theatres.

Saigal, Pahari Sanyal, Noor Mohammed Charlie and Vishwanath. Jamuna started her career with a small role in the Hindi version.
The film had Saigal playing the role of Akbar according to Pran Nevile, but it has also been cited as a film based on a Buddhist fable. The film was one of the first Indian Talkies to use the concept of flashback technique in the narrative.
