Jeevan Naiya is a 1936 Indian Hindi film directed by Franz Osten, and produced by Himanshu Rai for his studio Bombay Talkies.

The film was one of several successful Bombay Talkies collaborations between Franz Osten, Himashu Rai, screenwriters J. S. Kashyap and Niranjan Pal, and their leading lady of the time, Devika Rani.

[1] It also featured the famous song "Koi Humdum Na Raha", sung by Ashok Kumar, with music by Saraswati Devi and lyrics by Jamuna Swarup Kashyap (J. S. Kashyap), later sung by Kishore Kumar in the film Jhumroo (1961).

A significant portion of the movie had been shot and a large sum of money, which had been taken as credit from financers, had been spent.

This marked the debut, improbable as it may seem, of Ashok Kumar's six-decade-long career in Hindi films.
