Child Artist from Movie Bandit Queen
Child Marriage & similar social evils still remains prevalent in certain parts of India and many Asian countries, a social stigma that cannot be tolerated at all. I myself can never forget the haunting scenes from Bandit Queen where a 11-year old Phoolan Devi was married (or sold) to a 25 year old. The background score of this scene was a soulful and emotional track by NFAK which can force you to cry if you understand the lyrics. A young girl asking her father about “You have decided to marry your beloved daughter in such a small age! What was my fault to get this I cant understand?” and accepting her fate. So what we have today is the translation of this song by Bobby Sing ( from www.bobbytalkscinema.com ) , he understands and feels that this song might be the answer to the social & personal stigma , this song will help the girl-parents take right decision for their blossoming flower .. , So Do I..Read Along…
This is a humble message for all those young would-be parents who will be reaching this stage soon when they might find themselves in a dilemma. And may be at that time, the meaningful memories of watching this video may help you to take the right decision.
