B Correct answer
Explanation

Alam Ara (1931) directed by Ardeshir Irani was the first Indian talkie (film with sound). Don't confuse this with Raja Harishchandra (1913), which was the first Indian feature film but was silent. Alam Ara marked the transition from silent films to sound in Indian cinema.
