Adhare Mingaal: The Bishnupriya Manipuri Album

I am crooning "Tor Hobai Hobai… ", the Bishnupriya Manipuri song. Ever since I have watched the video I cannot stop myself jotting down the sequel of emotions that has paved through me.

Well, since I am humming the effervescent song, it means the song is well packaged, turning on the cochlea of my ear. The musical piece is just fantastic and mellifluous; perhaps minimally to the standard of music we are accustomed to listening.

No problem! Everything related to Bishnupriya Manipuri is pardonable - whether it is the bulging long hair of the actor Biman Sinha or decrepit Senapul that the actress is carrying. The work is simply magnificent and must be applauded.

The same applaud must be given to Editor Kuldeep Bora who has brilliantly given the shape to the video. And not to forget, the cameramen Bulbul Rajbongshi, Bado Dutta, and Ritu Bora capturing the essence of the culture and keeping intact the creative aspect.

Jaram Oitou Mi.. is another piece in the album "Adhare Mingaal" which is worth of mentioning. My parents have fallen in love with her, definitely for her acting prowess. She has been able to carry the feelings of the song on her face. What's her name, I don't know? Do tell me. And of course, the name of the gang [village] she belongs to.

na na na na go sakoi… is another creative output of the album which is not what its lyrics means – Don't touch me. The pair in the songs goes correct and giving the impression that of course you can't touch me but you can listen to it vociferously.

aji sina fame to be honest I didn't get the bug of the Bishnupriya Manipuri essence. Though the song is very melodious and sweet, it fails to catch the thunder.

Many thanks to Producer Katik Sena Sinha, Story-Dialogue-Director Hirendra Sinha, Set-design Banidev Sinha, and choreographer Manoj Das and Sunny Raj, they were all in grove in the production of the album.

An honest admission, while I was frisking each and every person in the album, I passionately failed to recognize anyone known to me. It was an utter disgrace at my end.

  2. well,its good to see the development but it will be excellent if they stop imitating others and stop girls/boys dancing around trees :) instead of being copycats we shd try to make something that will reflect our tradition & culture a bit.the movie sadly lacks this feature and looks like those typical assamese/bengali craps having no plots or a wathi grade storyline.but the effort is gr8 i admit.

Sri Sri Bhubaneshwar Sadhu Thakur

By Ranita Sinha, Kolkata Sri Sri Bhubaneshwar Thakur, the great saint of the Bishnupriya Manipuri Community was born on 26th October, 1871, in a remote village of Cachar district called Baropua in the state of Assam. He was born to a Xatriya Manipuri family. His father Sri Sanatan Pandit was a Sanskrit teacher and mother Srimati Malati Devi, a house wife. Sadhu Baba from his childhood was indifferent to all worldly happenings. He was engrossed in chanting the name of Lord Krishna. Along with other students of his age, Sadhu Baba started taking lessons of grammar and other spiritual literature from his father. At a very young age he lost his mother but he was brought up with utmost love and care by his step mother.

Assam Search Engine: Bisarok

Exclusive search engine on Assam Manash Pratim Gohain, TNN Jun 16, 2012, 01.46PM IST NEW DELHI: Assam got its own search engine ' Bisarok '.

The 'Star' Krishankant Sinha of Space City Sigma

By RK Rishikesh Sinha, New Delhi It is a myth that the all-knowing Internet knows everything. One such myth relates to old television stuff aired on Doordarshan before 1990. Search in Google “Space City Sigma”, the search engine would throw up reminiscent results from the people who still long for those days. Those days were really golden days. Krishankant Sinha in the role of Captain Tara in Space City Singma For those who have watched Doordarshan some 15 to 20 years back, am sure they will have nostalgic memories of it. The days when possessing a now ubiquitous looking television set was a luxury. It was a neighbour’s envy product. It was a visual product to showoff, to flaunt that we have a television set . Those were the days when black and white, locked television was rarely found in homes. The days became immortal for teleserials like Ramayana, Mahabharata, Swami’s Malgudi Days (Ta-Na-Na-Na…), Ek-Do-Teen-Char (Title song: Ek do teen char, chaaro mil ke saath chale to
