 This original print of "Joymoti" was thought to be lost after India's division in 1947, as it was left behind in a studio in Lahore, now in Pakistan.Somehow the print, together with other films, travelled from Lahore and resurfaced in India's film capital.After making this great recovery, Arnab Jan Deka reported the matter to the Assam Government, and wrote about this recovery in the Assamese daily "Dainik Asam" and the English daily "The Assam Express".
