The famous Bollywood lyricist Sandeep Nath shares his precious memory with Lata Didi

 From Saawariya, "Fashion ka hain ye jalwa" to "sun raha hain na tu " from Ashiqui 2, the lists are inexhaustive, but that one song which was penned down by eminent lyricist Sandeep Nath for the movie 'Page3' has always been close to his heart. The lyrics was loved by his beloved Lata Didi and she agreed to lend her voice for "kitne ajeeb rishtey". Sandeep Nath commemorates Lata Mangeshkar while talking with Bongjournal from Mumbai. 

I still remember how I met Lata Didi for the first time, this was in the year 2004, when it has been three to four years since I came to Mumbai and I had written the songs for many films. One day of my friend Sameer Tandon, called me and asked to come in JW Marriot at Juhu. When I reached there, Madhur Bhandarkar a famous Director was sitting with Sameerji and he introduced me to Madhurji. He said that they were planning to make a film called Page 3. So, he wanted a lyricist who had a little knowledge of journalism because page 3 heroine Konkona Sen Sharma was in the role of a journalist in that film and I suited having a lot of journalism experience before coming to Mumbai. We then had a rough script session as he told the story of the film. 

On one hand I was very happy that I have got a film and on the other hand I was worried about how should I write so that Madhur Bhandarkar would like it and the biggest point for me was that the if the theme song is good then Lata Didi will agree to render her golden voice. I couldn't sleep the whole night and kept thinking a lot about the story of the film which he narrated me. I prepared some lines and called Shamir Tandon and he said if you have written something, then come in the evening, we'll sit together and discuss. Shamir Tandon recorded the song. Then we called Madhurji came in the evening, we discussed the final song based on the draft. He called Lata Didi’s office we got in touch after 2 to 3 days with her manager Mr Deshpande. Her manager said that Lata Didi was singing only rarely then because she chose the songs based on good lyrics only. So that was the biggest challenge for me. 

So Madhur ji put all the responsibility on me to write it in such a way that Lata Didi would like it. I wrote the song and everyone liked it so it was sent to Lata Didi for demo. After 10 days we got a call from Lata Didi's manager and we were thrilled to hear she liked the song and Didi assured to sing the song. Few days after we again received the call that Lata Didi wants to meet us. The next day Madhur Bhandarkar, Shameer Tandon and I went to Lata Didi’s house we were humbled by the warm greetings by none other than Lata Didi in her drawing room, where we touched her feet for blessings. She was Ma Saraswati incarnate, while she was speaking, I felt like her voice smelling of sugar candy.

I still remember we had a meeting with her for 40 to 45 minutes. She was such a sweet person. Made us not only feel at home, but never let me feel that I was a newbie to the industry. She was such a great artist at the pinnacle of her career, having sung more than 30,000 songs and then she having received the highest honor of India, the Bharat Ratna at that time, moreover, she was also a member of Rajya Sabha at that time. yet so down to earth. 

She bought poha and upma for us. we talked and she cracked jokes related to music for an hour.Sometimes she called me Kaviji with love. Lata Didi appreciated my work and said you should have come early in the industry. According to her lyrics nowadays are not at all impressive. She suggested me to take the challenge of penning down good lyrics. Those words of her are forever a blessing for me. 

And then the final day came.  I remember, it was 26 June 2004 Didi recorded the song "kitne ajeeb rishtey" at the age of 75 and another everlasting song was made. While memorising of the day Sandeep Nath said – “on that day we touched her feet. She blessed us and went inside the recording room and the magic was made. Before recording Latadidi asked me "keya soch ke ye gaana likha. Maan me keya chal raha tha?"

She also asked Shameer Tandon about his thought on the music composition. This was an example of a great artist. She wanted her voice to sync with not only the lyrics but also the composition.

On 21st January 2005 the film Page 3 was released.  People liked the film so much that the film won National award. And the song was so famous that it became a landmark for me and Shameer Tandon. We all got so much respect in the industry and the whole credit goes to Lata Didi for whose voice this song a history. When in an interview Lata Didi was asked about her best songs she mentioned the legendary songs and also mentioned " kitne Ajeeb rishte Hain yaha pe". What a proud moment for me, as a lifetime award. 

You just see She lend her voice for Tanuja ji as well as kajol. Again, for Sharmila Tagore as well as her daughter Soha Ali Khan. Among so many eminent singers who came in the industry but no one could ever take her place. That's why she was called "Sur Samraggi". Unki bektitya aisi thi ke ek aam aadmi se lekar Pradhanmantri ke aankhen naam hain. Sare Bharatbarsh se juri huyi thi".

When I suddenly heard about her death I was left in shock.  On the next day of Vasant Panchami, Saraswati puja Lataji left us. Physically she may not be with us but her work, personality, her blessings will always remain with us and will show path to the future forever.

Market witnessing good amount of business prior Saraswati Puja this year

We have witnessed drastic fall in the sale forth saraswati pujo last year. But this year is little better than previous year. Atleast we can see little increase in the purchase of idol this year. As said by idolseller Bapi. 

Another shopkeeper at 8b bazaar in Jadavpur Kolkata said this year selling of puja material has increased. It is natural because those idol makers who sold five idol last year has sold at least nine idol this year. Hope rain just before the day of Saraswati puja wouldn't destroy excitement of the worshipper. As that may effect the business. 

Bong Journal also witnessed much excitement of the worshipper in the local market two days prior Saraswati Puja

First E-commerce Marketplace which Enlists Creative Artists, Entrepreneurs & Local Artisans for 24x7x365 Online Fair

This 15th August 2021, www.boutiqart.org, a unique marketplace from Kolkata has started their registration of Boutiques, Artists, Craftsmen, and all Creative Vendors and PIN Partners for listing talents along with unique products and services.No e-commerce platform before offered so much freedom for buyers & sellers to meet online just as they would interact in a fete, exhibition or any flea market (Mela). Boutiqart.org offers the scope for all creative vendors, artists and entrepreneurs to showcase not only their products and service but get PIN based listing with a profile for specific creative category. 

In most of the existing e-commerce portals and online marketplace the makers and creators behind a creative brand of garments, handicraft, fashion, wellness, home decor or design accessory or any innovative items are always kept hidden from the customers. Most e-vendors and online sellers reap hefty profit margins by sourcing items from local and authentic makers and enjoy the exclusivity of talented creators behind their ethnic and unique wares. Boutiqart seeks to bring the resellers, retailers, and boutiques along with the wholesalers, manufacturers and craftsman in a virtual 24 x 7 x 365 Mela for creative commerce from local to global.

Due to the pandemic times, the physical sales from mela, fairs and flea markets have touched the all-time low and the artisans, weavers, art & craft dealers and all types of handicraft oriented sellers are looking for alternatives, however, they are not technologically equipped nor adept in marketing their niche items. The e-commerce giants and popular ethnic store brands are sourcing from the real talents whereas they are denied the scope of meeting the customers and thereby has to remain satisfied with whatever bargain they could make. Boutiqart here seeks to even sponsor the talented craftsmen and creative genius from the remotest parts and not only support them with global marketing but makes them known to the end-users.

Boutiqart is currently looking for young, energetic social entrepreneurs and art connoisseurs to become PIN partners in all districts, towns and cities to help such creative talents enlisted and get the benefit of the creative commerce network.

 

Boutiqart is being partnered by a Digital Media Platform "Quarantimetv.com (QTV LIVE)"for assisting the creative vendors to perform LIVE Sales in social media like facebook, youtube and instagram through a branded multi-streaming of demonstrations directly from the vendor stores, shops, home, studio and the best part is, buyers can click to get bulk and custom orders and service contracts as the LIVEs are linked to the boutiqart e-commerce profile stores of creative members.

Already fashion designer, Nilufar Ahmed ( Assam government empanelled fashion entrepreneur of Weave India ) speaks of reaching out to the vast creative artists and traditional craftsmen of not only Guwahati, but of the whole north-east to bring them under the creative network of boutiqart. A kolkta based marketing agency "Reflancer.com" has also been employed to source the creative pool of talents for boutiqart listing. It is estimated that by the middle of year 2023 Boutiqart will be open for all individual and corporate customers to not only order customized services but also get to know about the real artists behind the show, who are always kept behind the curtains when the big creative retailers only share the center stage. 

Boutiqart with time are also aspiring to showcase all local and global events, exhibitions and fetes, provide franchisee support to creative startups, even support the training and passing on the rare skills and tradition of one generation to another by propagating their story to the world.

এক অনামি সাংবাদিকের কথা

এত ঝুঁকিপূর্ণ কাজ কে করতে বলেছে? নিউজ চ্যানেলগুলোর কি আক্কেল বাবা ! জুনিয়র সাংবাদিকদের এভাবে কেউ প্রবল ঘূর্ণিঝড়ের মধ্যেই ঠেলে দেয়? পেটের দায়ে বাধ্য হয়ে বেচারাদের ছুটতে হচ্ছে। ইয়াস আছড়ে পড়ার পর থেকেই এই ধরনের উক্তি ঘুরপাক খাচ্ছে সোশ্যাল মিডিয়াতে। সাধারণ মানুষ, তাদের আর কতটুকুই বা ধারণা এই মিডিয়া হাউসগুলো সম্পর্কে। সত্যি তো। চিকিৎসা জগতের হাল হকিকত না জেনেই আমরা অনেক সময়  চিকিৎসক বা  সাস্থর্মীদের অহেতুক হেনস্থা করে ফেলি। কেই বা আর জনে জনে সাধারণ মানুষকে বোঝাতে যায়।  এই রকম সাত পাঁচ ভেবেই আর কোনো উত্তর দেবার প্রয়োজন মনে করিনি।

কিন্তু চোখ আটকে গেলো  বর্তমানের এক স্বনামধন্য সাহিত্যিকের এই বিষয় কমেন্টস দেখে।  ওনার মতে প্রতিযোগিতায়ে টিকে থাকতে জুনিয়র দের বাধ্য করা হচ্ছে জীবন বিপন্ন করে এই দুর্ভোগ কোনো মাথায় নিয়ে রিপোর্টিং করছে। পুঙ্খানুপুঙ্খ কে জানতে চেয়েছেন? মানুষ হিসেবে আপনার এমন উদ্বেগ প্রকাশ করাটাই স্বাভাবিক। সেই প্রসঙ্গ টেনেই বলছি, সত্যিই কি প্রতিযোগীতা। আমি এক অনামি ক্ষুদ্র সাংবাদিক হিসেবেই বলছি। প্রতিযোগিতা নিশ্চয়ই রয়েছ কিন্তু সেই প্রতিযোগিতায় কোথাও কিন্তু জোর খাটানোর বিষয়ে নেই। এই সংবাদ জগতে পা দেবার সঙ্গে সঙ্গেই কিন্তু গণতন্ত্রের চতুর্থ স্তম্ভের ধ্বজা ওড়াতে আসা সেই ছেলে বা মেয়েটি জেনে যায় যে এই পেশার সঙ্গে কোনোদিন আপোষ করা যায়না। প্রথমে উপভোগ তারপর নেশা হয়ে দাঁড়ায়। 

২০১১ , মনে আছে, তখন আমি নিউজ বাংলা খবরের কাগজে সাংবাদিক হয়ে সদ্য কাজ শুরু করেছি। সারা বছরে মাত্র চারটি পাবলিক হলিডে বরাদ্দ আমাদের প্রিন্ট মিডিয়ার কর্মীদের জন্য। সপ্তাহে একটি করে week off। জুনিয়রদের জন্য সেটিও থাকতনা অনেক সময়। পুজো এলো, যথারীতি কোনো ছুটি নেই আমাদের। আমাদের চিফ রিপোর্টার দায়িত্ব ভাগ করে দিলেন যে কে কোন আঙ্গেল থেকে খবর করবো। আমার দায়িত্ব ছিল কোন পুজোতে কত ভিড় তা জানা এবং জেলাগুলো থেকে পুজোর হালহকিকত। তখন আমরা যারা সদ্য তারুণ্যের সিড়িতে দাঁড়িয়ে রয়েছি তাদের জন্য বন্ধুদের সঙ্গে প্যান্ডেল hopping বা পাড়ার পুজোর জন্য এক আমোঘ টান থাকাটাই স্বাভাবিক। কিন্তু ওই যে বললাম উপভোগ যে কখন নেশায় পরিণত হয়েছে বুঝিনি। অষ্টমীর রাত আটটা তখন। নিউজ বাংলার সম্পাদক অনুপ ধর বলে দিয়েছিলেন যে পুজোর দিনে যেন জুনিয়রদের বিকেল বিকেল ছেড়ে দেওয়া হয়। অবশেষে  আমি, আর এক সহকর্মী শাবানা আর শুভ্র অর্থাৎ এখনকার এই সময়  ও Times of india  সংবাদপত্রের ফটো জার্নালিস্ট শুভ্রদীপ রায় যখন বেশ কয়েকটা  পুজো সম্পর্কিত স্টোরি নিয়ে অফিসে ঢুকলাম তখনই আমাদের Joint editor আমাদের দেখে লাফিয়ে উঠে বললেন  ‘একি এরা এখানে কি করছে। আজ তো পুজো। তোমাদের কি বাড়ি যেতেও ইচ্ছে করছেনা ?’ পাশ থেকে আর এক সিনিয়র রিপোর্টার আমাদের joint editor কে বলে উঠলেন ‘ বুঝছনা কোনো। এই তো ওদের নেশার শুরু”।

কোন গহন অন্ধকারে গিয়ে কোন আলোর সন্ধান পাওয়া যায় এটাই এক সাংবাদিকের কাছে বড় চ্যালেঞ্জ। তা সে যা বলছিলাম। আবার ফিরে যাই সেই লেখিকার কথায়। ওনার লেখার আমি কদর করি। দু একটি বইও পড়ার সুযোগ হয়েছে। কলমে ওনার আগুন রয়েছে। কল্পনা ও বাস্তবের মিশেলে নানান উপন্যাস ও গল্প উনি পাঠকদের উপহার দিয়েছেন। ওনার সঙ্গে ফোনেও দু একবার কথা হয়েছে। Quarantimetv Live চ্যানেলেও উনি আমাদের এক আলোচনা সভার নিমন্ত্রণ গ্রহণ করেছিলেন। সেই সুবাদে জানি যে ওনার লেখাকেও বহুবার কাঠগড়ার সম্মুখীন হতে হয়েছে। জয়ী হয়েছেন সেটাও ঠিক। এরাজ্যে লেখকদের অর্থনৈতিক দিকটা কতখানি চেপে রাখা হয় তাও অনেকের অজানা নয়। সে যাই হোক আমার বলার বিষয়ে হলো উনি নিশ্চয়ই তাতে লেখা ছেড়ে দেননি? বা কারোর সঙ্গে প্রতিযোগিতায়ে সামিল হতে লিখছেন কি? লেখক বা লেখিকার মানসপট দিয়েই সাধারণ পাঠকরা সামাজিক প্রেক্ষাপটের ছবি দেখতে পান। এবার সাংবাদিকদের নিয়ে ট্রোল বা উদ্বেগ প্রকাশ নিয়ে লেখাটা আমার মূল উদ্দেশ্য নয়। আমি এক অতি সাদামাটা সাংবাদিক। বেশ কিছু সময় এই সাংবাদিকতার জীবনকে সামনাসামনি দেখেছি বা দেখছি। তা থেকেই কিছু টুকরো অভিজ্ঞতাকে তুলে ধরাটাই উদ্দেশ্য। 

মানুষের জানার আধিকার এবং গণমাধ্যমের দ্বারা সঠিক তথ্যের মাধ্যমে সমাজকে সচেতন করার দায়বদ্ধতা থেকেই কিন্তু প্রতিনিয়ত কাজ করছেন সাংবাদিকরা। সাধারণ মানুষের চাওয়া পাওয়া ও আকাঙ্খা নিয়ে সংবাদ পেশ করাটাই একমাত্র কাম্য এই মহান পেশার। সেখানে লক্ষভ্রষ্ট হলে প্রশ্ন উঠবেই। তবুও মানুষ কিন্তু এই গণমাধ্যমেই বিশ্বাসি। 

একটি ঘটনা বলি। ২০১১ সাল। হঠাৎই জানতে পারলাম একটি নামকরা Open University তে কোনো এক ডিপার্টমেন্ট- এর (এখন আর মনে নেই কোন ডিপার্টমেন্ট)  রেজাল্ট আউট নিয়ে ব্যাপক ঝামেলা চলছে। বিক্ষোভ শুরু হয়েছে। আমি আর পার্থদা অর্থাৎ এখনকার আর এক অতিপিরিচিত লেখক পার্থসারথী গুহ গেলাম সেখানে। দেখলাম বেশ ভিড়। কিছু ছাত্র ভেতরে ঢুকে বিক্ষোভ দেখাচ্ছে। কিছু পুলিশ বাহিনী রয়েছে। অন্য কয়েকটি চ্যানেলের সাংবাদিকরাও রয়েছেন। আমাদের দেখেই হন্তদন্ত হয়ে এগিয়ে এলেন এক ছাত্র। তার কাছে বিষয় বস্তু শুনে বোঝা গেল গোলমাল করেছে ইউনিভার্সিটির প্রশাসন বিভাগ অথচ তারা ছাত্রদের সঙ্গে কথা বলতেও নারাজ। এদিকে পুলিশ রয়েছে। সাংবাদিকরাও কোনোভাবে পৌঁছতে পারছেনা প্রশাসনের কাছে। এবার সেই ছাত্রটি হঠাৎই আমার সামনে হাত জোড় করে মিনতি করল। দিদি পারলে আপনারাই পারেন এই বিষয়টি সামনে আনতে। আপনাদের ছাড়া এই সমস্যা আর কাকেই বা বলবো। ব্যাস। এতখানি যখন মানুষ ভরসা করছে তখন তো আর কয়েকটা বাইট নিয়ে ফিরে আসা যায়না।

অবশেষে কয়েকজন ছাত্রদের কথা বলতে ডাকল কতৃপক্ষ। অথচ পুলিশ সাংবাদিকদের আটকাচ্ছে। অথচ আমারও চাই সঠিক খবরটা। তখন বয়েস অল্প হবার কারণে অবশেষে ছাত্রী পরিচয় দিয়ে ঢুকতে পারলাম ভেতরে। পরেরদিন খবরটি বেরোনোর পর ছাত্ররা অফিসে ধন্যবাদ জানিয়ে বললেন। অন্তত এবার কিছুটা সমস্যা মিটবে। পরে অবশ্য এই বিষয়টি নিয়ে অন্য এক সাংবাদিক এগিয়েছিলেন। সাংবাদিকরা সমাজের রূপকার কিনা জানিনা তবে মানুষের স্বার্থে এগিয়ে যেতে কোনো প্রতিযোগিতার প্রয়োজন নেই।

তবে সময়ের সঙ্গে সঙ্গে সাংবাদিকতার definition বদলেছে। মানুষের দৃষ্টিভঙ্গিরও বদল ঘটেছে।

শ্রীজা ঘোষ সুর

"Didi, I am only interested in Harischandrapur" Soumitra Roy of Bhoomi appeals to the TMC supremo before Bengal Bidhan sabha polls.

While in an interview to Qurantimetv (QTV LIVE) Soumitra ray the lead vocalist of the Bengali band, Bhoomi requested Mamata Banerjee, CM of West Bengal to let him stand for his home town Harishchandrapur Maldah where he is a son of the soil and philanthropic exploits are discernible.

He told that Harishchandrapur is his native place where his ancestors are well-known.  So he always wanted to do something for the people from his hometown. He owes a lot to the land and if he can't do anything he will be called as traitor.

He said "when I sing, I sing for people and not for any particular party. Similarly I am loved by every party and not by any particular party. So If I request any help for the people they know that I am requesting for the betterment of the area and its people, and not for me. Yes I did some work in road construction, hospitals and ITI college. There was a huge problem of electricity supply in Harishchandrapur. I requested Manish Gupta ( former Minister of Power and electrical engineering) to see the matter. A substation has been constructed and now there is no powercut. This is really a great achievement. Me and the people of Harishchandrapur are really thankful to Manish Gupta and Sobhandeb Chetterjee.

Once Didi asked me to stand for North Maldah constituency for Loksabha. But couldn't win due to various reasons as the environment was not convenient. But this time I am praying to Didi to give me only Harishchandrapur. Otherwise I am not interested. I will only work for people as I am doing now with all your blessings."
