भारतीय संस्कृति में रचे बसे जनजाति विषयक लोक गीत गाहे बगाहे हिन्दी फिल्मो के रुपहले परदे पर देखने को मिल जाता है । उसी कड़ी में कई साल पहले, तकरीबन 44 साल पहले आई " तलाश' नाम की फिल्म में एक गीत बेहद लोकप्रिय हुआ था। इस गीत के बोल थे "जुनेली रात मा" और इस गीत को लता मंगेशकर और मोहम्मद रफ़ी ने अपनी आवाजें दी थी। जब इस गीत को मैंने ( अपनी आदत के अनुसार में दिन में कुछेक मिनट रेडियो ट्यून करके सुन ही लेता हूँ ) सुना तो पाया कि इस गीत के बोल नेपाली भाषा में है , तो मुझे सहज इस गीत के ऊपर और अधिक जान्ने की जिज्ञासा हुई सो श्रीमान गूगल के दरबार में पहुंचा तो उन्होंने सूचना दी कि यह गीत विख्यात गीतकार मजरूह सुलतानपुरी और संगीतकार सचिन देव बर्मन की रचना है । इतना जानने के बाद मैंने फिर यूट्यूब में जाकर इस गीत के वीडियो को देखा तो लगभग सकपका के रह गया ।

 हुआ दरअसल ऐसा कि जो गीत मैंने अब तक सुना तो उसे देखकर एक गंभीर समस्या "पहचान" की ओर बरबस ध्यान चला गया । इस गाने में नेपाली गीत का इस्तेमाल आदिवासियों के पारंपरिक गीत लोकगीत के रूप में हुआ है, जो बेहद आपत्तिजनक है । भारत में रहने वाले भारतीय मूल के गोरखाओ का अपना वजूद रहा है और इन्होने कभी भी घूमंतू और कबिलेनुमा जीवन को व्यतीत नहीं किया है। नेपाली भाषा के प्रयोग की मैं सराहना करता हूँ और साथ ही इस फिल्म में जो कुछ बताया और दिखाया गया , उससे मैं इत्तेफाक नहीं रखता
लेकिन लता जी मंगेशकर की आवाज़ में मधुर संगीत में नेपाली परिवेश का सम्मान करना  है।

Mumbai : Bollywood actress Nafisa alias Jiah Khan, who was seen opposite Amitabh Bachchan in ‘Nishabd’, committed suicide at her residence in Mumbai’s Juhu area, police said Tuesday. She was 25. The Britain-born actress was found hanging at her flat in Sagar Sangeet Building in the posh Juhu area of northwest Mumbai around midnight. The cause of the suicide is not yet clear, police said, adding that autopsy reports were awaited. The body of the actress was taken to the Cooper Hospital in Vile Parle Monday night and later shifted to J.J. Hospital in Byculla. ‘The body was brought here last night. 

It has now been taken to the J.J. Hospital,’ a source from the Cooper Hospital told IANS. However, he didn’t reveal why the body was moved. Police are questioning her domestic help, security personnel and neighbours to ascertain what could have triggered the extreme step. News of her death was first reported by actress Dia Mirza through a social networking site around 1.45 a.m. Jiah shot into the limelight in 2007 with Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Nishabd’ in which she plays a teenager besotted with a man old enough to be her father. She got a Filmfare Best Debutant nomination for the role. ‘Shocked and choked to hear about Jiah,’ Varma tweeted after hearing the news. ‘Never seen a debutant actress with more spunk and more spirit than Jiah when I was directing her in Nishabd,’ the director said in another tweet. 

In 2008, she was seen along with Aamir Khan and Asin in the blockbuster ‘Ghajini’, a remake of A.R. Murugadoss’s Tamil film by the same title. She was last seen in Sajid Khan’s ‘Housefull’ with Akshay Kumar, Reiteish Deshmukh, Deepika Padukone and Lara Dutta. She was born Nafisa and changed her name to Jiah before going back to her birth name. Her mother is Rabiya Amin, an actress in the 1980s who was seen in the Tahir Hussain movie ‘Dulha Bikta Hai’.

The very talented filmmaker had teamed up with Aishwarya Rai for ‘Chokher Bali’ and ‘Raincoat’. ‘Chokher Bali’ that also starred Prosenjit and Raima Sen won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Bengali while ‘Raincoat’ featuring Ajay Devgn won National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Hindi. In September last year, Ghosh had expressed his take on India’s official entry to the Oscars. He lamented how regional cinema, including his own, was ignored for such honours. Ghosh was adjudged the `big director of decade` by the public in the `Big Bangla Movie Awards 2010`. Thanking the audience for the award at a programme, Ghosh said he was touched to hear that the choice was unanimous. Rituparno lived his life on his terms and was frank about his sexual orientation. 

He had won the Special Jury award at the National Film Awards for ‘Chitrangada’, a film based on the story of Chitrangada from the Mahabharat, who struggles with his sexual identity. While accepting the award, he said, "This award has been given to non-conventional sexuality. People in India had started accepting it at their individual level but this award to the subject is from the government's side. So it is a signal that they are accepting it." The two biggest artistic and cultural influences on him came from Rabindranath Tagore, who has been an abiding influence on all Bengalis and whose transitions from the male into the female voice have never struck a discordant note, and Satyajit Ray."If somebody had influenced me to become a filmmaker, it was Ray. 

He set a masculine prototype for film directors. People were proud of his height and his English. People (like me) who wear danglers and kajol to parties (were regarded) as an insult to Ray," Ghosh said in an interview. Talking exclusively to Zee Media, veteran filmmaker Shyam Benegal said, “Rituparno followed the legacy initiated by stalwarts like Satyajit Ray and Mrinal Sen. He had a high sense of aesthetic and had a great ability of tell stories and handle actors. There is hardly any flaw in his kind of filmmaking. His passing away is a huge loss to the film industry.” Rituparno was working on 'Satyanweshi', a film on Byomkesh Bakshi. May his soul rest in peace.
