Bengali film “Jadi Ekdin”, directed by young and vigorous Bengali director Ringo Banerjee, is going to release this April. Databazaar Media Ventures (DMV), a media wing of US printer retailer Databazaar.com, has obtained the international distribution rights of “Jadi Ekdin” and will be releasing the film over 19000 retail stores of North America including Amazon, Blockbuster, Netflix and iTune.Swarup: What did inspire you to make “Jadi Ekdin”?Ringo:The entire concept of “Jadi Ekdin”, if truth be told, does emanate from our own experiences in conjunction with the reality of the contemporary corporate environment. I have found that often due to exceedingly demanding rendezvous there remains hardly any time for us, in spite of best wishes, to spend some moments with our flesh and blood. What is more,since we continue to neglect (even though unknowingly) the relationship disappears in due course and comes to a dead end without more ado. It is also found increasingly either the majority of us remains hesitant to go back to the initial stage and strive to reorganize everything once more or stays standstill. This, in good time, leads to egoism – that leaves no stone unturned to play a potent role and everything does end without notice, without any valid reason.If we do consider each and every relation as a problem, the same problem has a solution then. We have got to find out the best solution that has got already lost. For that reason perception, learning and feeling of the same problem have remained as the true inspiration.Swarup: Life is a magic? Does the movie say so?Ringo: Well, life is a magic – life, in essence, is a magician. What does a magician do? He does perform through 3 vital steps. At the first stage,the concerned magician illustrates some general happenings and does pledge to convert the same to some uncanny ones. I do or would like to term the same as Promise. The second stage revolves round the term –Turn. It is to realize the kind of things (which we did wish for) that has already lost.When on earth the magician makes the coin vanish, he is not applauded all at once. The audience does wait for the coin and starts to applaud only when the very coin comes to the fore again.The third state is Prestige. Without a doubt, magician’s prestige dwells in audience’s approval.Well,the same thing happens everywhere. Nevertheless, in the course of life,on account of several developments a number of promises vanish. We do lose each other and this does turn out to be end for the majority of people. But prestige does exist in the life of a person who can reorganize all and this endeavor gives birth to a new relation. This happens to be the best gospel for all and above all for those who has the competence to fall in love.It is also true that a distinguishable similarity does exist between love and magic. It is undeniable that life and magic are inseparable; life can’t be devoid of magic and viceversa , it’s like that.Swarup: The trailer does depict that the film is rooted in an urban concept.Who is your audience then? Does it belong to Calcutta or Rural Bengal or even beyond West Bengal?Ringo: Well, each and every film has its own expression and language too. Whatever it is, there can’t be any sagacious difference between urban state of mind or metro or even rural frame of mind.Personally,I grew up in Kalyani and am still rooted in the same area. My relatives are still living in Sodepur, Khardah and even remote areas. I, still,do not find myself as unacquainted with the same environment, even for once. Truly speaking, one person can’t change on the strength of dress or the area wherein he lives. The language in which I speak along with the ambiance remain the same and there is hardly any doubt in it.Well,the ideal question should be the preference of a person and also the films which he/she feels affection for. Can this film appeal to person habituated in common films infested with actions and other plots? It’s also true that we are slaves of habit. It has got to be stated that every person does prefer to perceive, take pleasure in simply the best(whatever it is). Take for instance, Taj Mahal. Taj Mahal or the magnificent edifice is enjoyed by all,irrespective of Indians or aliens, and the credit goes to the magnificence only. The situation is just the same with Rabindra Sangeet. If the content and presentation do attract one, the movie shall be appreciated without doubt. Swarup: Is this movie going to release outside of Bengal too?Ringo: Yes, the movie is going to release in North America too thanks to Databazaar.com and DMV. I do consider this as a decisive step in the realm of Bengali films.
