Prem Kahani (English: "Love Story") is a 1937 Indian Hindi film, by Franz Osten and starring Ashok Kumar, N.M. Joshi, Mayadevi, Vimala Devi, Madhurika Devi and others.

[1] Two widowed neighbours thwart a love match when they try to arrange marriages for their respective children.

Bombay Talkies produced two films in 1937, Jeevan Prabhat and Prem Kahani.

Writer Niranjan Pal's original title for the English-language story and screenplay was Touchstone or Marriage Market, indicating a shorthand version of the film's theme.

The verse that Pal uses as a mood reference for one of the songs in the film is from Arthur Ryder's 1912 translation of Kalidasa’s Kumarasambhava or The Birth of the War-God.
