virtues of life!

Life is a journey with happy and sad moments. We live like puppet man’s puppets. Puppet man (Sitting) is envisaged as “God / Supreme Power” here.
The puppet’s or small dolls are “Us - the Human beings” who have less control of things happening around us. Though “We- The Dolls” seem to be in a complete control of things around us, there is “Someone” else who is controlling the overall affair of things.
Hence “Virtues of Life” tends to imagine, how each one of us behave in a complex society.
The people around us react to “Us” based on what they perceive of “Us”. However these Virtues /Actions are controlled by Supreme Power.
ಬದುಕು ಒಳಿತು ಮತ್ತು ಕೆಡುಕಿನ ಕ್ಷಣಗಳ ಸಂಗಮ. ನಾವೆಲ್ಲ ಸೂತ್ರಧಾರನ ಸೂತ್ರದ ಬೊಂಬೆಗಳು. ಚಿತ್ರದಲ್ಲಿ ಸೂತ್ರಧಾರ (ಕುಳಿತಿರುವವನು)ನನ್ನು ಬದುಕಿನ ಅದಮ್ಯ ಶಕ್ತಿಗೆ, ಭಗವಂತನಿಗೆ ಹೋಲಿಸಲಾಗಿದೆ. ಚಿಕ್ಕ ಚಿಕ್ಕ ಗೊಂಬೆಗಳೆಲ್ಲಾ ಹುಲು ಮಾನವರಂತೆ; ಸೂತ್ರಧಾರನ ಕೈನಲ್ಲೇ ಆಟವಿರುವುದು. ಗೊಂಬೆಗಳೆಲ್ಲಾ ತಾವು ಸ್ವತಂತ್ರರು ಎಂಬ ಪರಿಭಾವನೆಯಲ್ಲೇ ಇದ್ದರೂ ನಿಜದಲ್ಲಿ ಆ ಸೂತ್ರವೆಲ್ಲ ಗೊಂಬೆಗಳನ್ನ ಮೀರಿದ ಅದೃಶ್ಯ ಶಕ್ತಿಯ ಕೈಯಲ್ಲಿದೆ. ಪ್ರತಿಯೊಂದು ಗೊಂಬೆಯೂ ಇನ್ನೊಂದು ಗೊಂಬೆಯ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ತನ್ನದೇ ಪರಿಕಲ್ಪನೆಗಳನ್ನ ಇಟ್ಟುಕೊಂಡಂತೆ ಕಾಣುತ್ತದೆ. ಬದುಕಿನ ಸಹಜತೆಯ ಈ ಕಲಾಕೃತಿ ಮನುಷ್ಯ ಮೀತಿಯನ್ನ ಸಹನೆಯಿಂದ ನೋಡಲು ಪ್ರೇರೆಪಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.

“An Indian Wins Olympic Gold!!”“For few bucks, votes are Sold!!”
“Kids still fall, into the drains!!”,
“Drought here!!, Oh!!!..Here it didn’t rain!!”
“Nuclear Dud!!!, claims “one bright”
“Hundreds rebuke “He isn’t right””
Someone loses and someone gains..
Morning never starts without this Guy
Throwing at doors & sometimes wall high,
Haven’t you seen him? Oh!! He’s just a teen,
You guessed it right, he never got to study but was always keen!
(On the occassion of Vendors Day, September 4th)

ಪರ್ಯಾಯಕ್ಕೊಂದು ಪ್ರಯೋಗ
ಕತೆಯಲ್ಲಿನ ಗಂಭೀರತೆ, ಮನಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ನಾಟುವ ತಿಳಿಯಾದ ನಿರೂಪಣೆ, ಅದರಲ್ಲಿ ಅಡಗಿದ ಒಳಾರ್ಥ ಎಷ್ಟರ ಮಟ್ಟಿಗೆ ಚಿತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹುದುಗಿದೆಯೊ ಗೊತ್ತಿಲ್ಲ. ಸಿನಿಮಾ ನೋಡಲು ಅವಕಾಶ ಸಿಗದವರಿಗೊಂದು ಚಿತ್ರದ ಮೂಲಕ ಸಂವೇದನೆ.
Ghatashraddha (The Ritual) was Girish Kasaravalli's first film as a director. The Film was based on a novel by eminent Kannada writer U R Ananthamurthy. It won the 1978 National Film Award for Best Film and in 2002 became the only India film at the Film Archive of Paris, selected for the Cinema hundredth anniversary celebrations, amongst one of the best 100 in the world.
Literature and cinema are very closely related. Depiction of emotions has its own way in both of them.Here I've tried to unveil those emotions on a canvas. We thought this is the best way to respect and cherish the incredible work of Girish Kasaravalli and U R Ananthamurthy. This couldn't have been possible without our samvaada saarathi Shekhar Poorna. I'm grateful to Shekhar Poorna for his endless encouragement and cooperation.
It's difficult to paint what a character goes through in a film. Still it's my sincere effort to bring all emotional colors of Ghatashraddha from big screen to a small canvas.
