यादें:आकाशवाणी गोरखपुर के कार्यक्रम युववाणी की !

 आकाशवाणी गोरखपुर के युववाणी(आगे चलकर युवा जगत )कार्यक्रम से मैं पहले एक वार्ता कार के रुप में जुड़ा और फिर आकाशवाणी की सेवा में आने के बाद प्रोन्नति पाकर उस विभाग का कार्यक्रम अधिकारी भी बना ।युवाओं के इस लोकप्रिय कार्यक्रम से जुड़ना मेरे जीवन के लिए गर्व ,गौरव और रोमांच का हिस्सा रहा है।उन दिनों जब मेरे सहकर्मी लोग प्रायः इस विभाग की देखरेख करना अपनी पद गरिमा से कमतर माना करते थे मैं इसे अपना सौभाग्य मानता रहा।इसलिए कि युवाओं को अपनी प्रतिभा दिखाने, संवारने के लिए एक लांचिंग पैड साबित हुआ करता था।नब्बे और दो हजार के दशक के ढेर सारे ऐसे ही युवाओं(वार्ता कार और कम्पेयर) को आज जब मैं शीर्ष पदों पर काम करते देखता हूं तो जो खुशी होती है उसे मैं व्यक्त नहीं कर सकता !किन किन के नाम गिनाऊं?अभी जो स्मृति पटल पर हैं वे कुछ यूं हैं-
सर्वश्री दीपक मिश्र,प्रवक्ता(प्र.स.पा.),रविशंकर त्रिपाठी(वरिष्ठ पत्रकार, राष्ट्रीय सहारा, दिल्ली),अभिजीत शुक्ला और मिथिलेश द्विवेदी(हिन्दुस्तान, गोरखपुर),इक़बाल ज़कारिया, एडवोकेट, आयकर,गोरखपुर, धर्मेंद्र कुमार दुबे,एडवोकेट, गोरखपुर, दीपक मिश्रा,शिक्षक,देवरिया,प्रोफेसर ध्रुव कुमार त्रिपाठी, लखनऊ वि.वि.,केशव शुक्ल, शिक्षक,प्रेम सिंह,एडवोकेट तथा आकाशवाणी समाचार संवाददाता, महराजगंज, प्रमोद सिंह,अंशकालिक समाचार वाचक,......आदि ।
इसी प्रकार ढेर सारे युवा वार्ता कार भी जुड़े रहे जो आज ऊंचे पदों की शोभा बढ़ाकर येन केन प्रकारेण आकाशवाणी गोरखपुर का भी नाम रौशन कर रहे हैं।ऐसा ही एक नाम है डा. कन्हैया त्रिपाठी का..जो पिछले दिनों फेसबुक के माध्यम से मेरे संपर्क में आए।उन्होंने फेसबुक मित्रता का आफर दिया और फिर अतीत जीवंत हो उठा..मैसेंजर पर रोचक संदेशों का आदानप्रदान शुरू हुआ..
"मेरा नाम कन्हैया त्रिपाठी है।आपने मुझे दो बार टॉक करवाया था युवजगत में। आपसे बस इतना परिचय है।...
मैं आकाशवाणी महानिदेशालय से बाद में जुड़ गया।....
उसके बाद वर्धा में पढ़ाई लिखाई आगे बढ़ाया।
राष्ट्रपति श्रीमती प्रतिभा पाटील जी का संपादक बना। सागर यूनिवर्सिटी ज्वाइन किया।
उसके बाद राष्ट्रपति श्री प्रणब मुख़र्जी जी का विशेष कार्य अधिकारी (ओएसडी) बना। कार्यकाल समापन के बाद पुनः डॉ. हरिसिंह गौर विश्वविद्यालय सागर में असिस्टेंट प्रोफेसर/डायरेक्टर के रूप में अभी कार्यरत हूँ।....
मैं धारावाहिक दहलीज़, तिनका तिनका सुख और ये कहाँ आ गए हम का समीक्षक, रेडियो ब्रिज प्रोग्रामर, पत्रोत्तर संचालक और लोक सभा टीवी पर को-एंकर रहा।...

पॉपुलेशन कम्युनिकेशन इंटरनेशनल न्यू यॉर्क और आकाशवाणी महानिदेशालय से मुझे पुरस्कार 1997 में मिला।2011 में राष्ट्रीय मानव अधिकार आयोग का क्रिएटिव राइटिंग अवार्ड मिला।..."
डा.कन्हैया त्रिपाठी ने यह भी लिखा....
"आपके यहाँ प्रोग्राम के लिए आता था युवजगत में तो कई बार आप डांट दिए !दो रिकॉर्डिंग भी बहुत निवेदन पर करवाई थी-घर के काम में हांथ न बंटाना और विज्ञापनों में युवतियों की छवि। खैर, आपके स्वस्थ जीवन की कामना करता हूँ।
डॉ. कन्हैया त्रिपाठी"
मैसेंजर की इस बातचीत ने रोमांचक टर्न ले लिया था।यह सच है कि कभी कभार हम पेक्स लोग काम के दबाब में झल्लाहट में आ जाते हैं और उसी क्रम में डांट डपट भी हो जाया करती थी ।मैंनें उनके कथन को स्वीकार करते लिखा-
"आपकी याददाश्त अच्छी है।मुझे ये सब एकदम याद नहीं आ रहा है।डांट डपट यदि बुरा लगा हो तो खेद है।वैसे उसके पीछे कोई निहित स्वार्थ नहीं रहा।आपको एक बात बताऊं।मैं जब गोरखपुर में ड्यूटी आफिसर था तो डा.अरविंद त्रिपाठी, (वर्तमान में सहायक निदेशक, आकाशवाणी, मथुरा/एमरिटस प्रोफेसर हिन्दी विभाग, दी.द.उपा.गो.वि.वि.,गोरखपुर) मेरे सामने एक कैजुअल उदघोषक बनकर आये।ग्रामीण पृष्ठभूमि के सीधे सादे साहित्यिक रुचि वाले युवा थे और उदघोषणा करने, टेप,ग्रामोफोन रिकॉर्ड, फेडर चलाने में उनके साथ दिक्कतें थीं।।मैनें लगभग झल्लाते हुए उन्हें कैजुअल एनाउंसमेंट छोड़कर पेक्स बनकर रेडियो आने की सलाह दी।उन्होंने सलाह गांठ बांध ली थी और संयोग यह हुआ कि कुछ ही वर्ष में वे पेक्स बनकर इसी गोरखपुर केन्द्र पर आ गये आ गये।पेक्स ही नहीं कार्यक्रम प्रभारी भी रहे।आज भी वे यह वाकया याद करते हैं।आपमें भी भरपूर प्रतिभा,लगन रही होगी तभी इस मुकाम पर हैं।जीवन खट्टे मीठे प्रकरणों का भी नाम है।इतने साल बाद हमें फेसबुक या मैसेंजर ने जोड़ा यह भी प्रभु कृपा है।आपको शुभकामनाएं।सम्पर्क में बने रहिएगा।"

प्रति उत्तर में डा.कन्हैया ने लिखा-
"अपना आशीष बनाए रखें।
जीवन में यह सब होता रहता है। बहुतों का अपनापन सहा। अपमान सहा। सीख ली। प्रयास किया। माँ पिता और आप सभी लोगों का आशीर्वाद ही तो है कि मैं किसी स्तर पर अपने आपको देख सका। अरविंद त्रिपाठी जी भी बहुत अच्छे इंसान हैं। सब लोग अपनी जगह ठीक हैं।"
उन्होंने कुछ और स्मृतियों को साझा किया-
."..रेडियो ब्रिज हुआ था तो सर्वेश दुबे जी और जुगानी जी मेरे घर तक आये कि आप लखनऊ पहुंचिए ,आपके बगैर कार्यक्रम नहीं होगा। जुगानी जी ने पूछा क्या कर दिया तुमने कि हम लोगों को घर का चक्कर लगाना पड़ा !  मेरे कार्य को तो ओहियो यूनिवर्सिटी, जॉन हॉपकिन्स यूनिवर्सिटी, मैक्सिको यूनिवर्सिटी के इंटरपर्सनल कम्युनिकेशन एंड जर्नलिज्म विभाग के लोगों ने 1998 में पी-एच डी का हिस्सा बनाया। रूरल एरिया में रेडियो धारावाहिक के इम्पैक्ट पर इन यूनिवर्सिटी के रिसर्च स्कॉलर काम किए। वे मुझे अपने थीसिस का हिस्सा बनाए। यही सब है।
आप श्रेष्ठ हैं। अपने स्नेह को बनाए रखें।" ........सचमुच इन प्रसंगों से गुजरते हुए मैं आज भी अपने को आकाशवाणी गोरखपुर की सुखद और खट्टी मीठी यादों के गलियारों में पाता हूं..और इतने साल बाद भी रोमांचित हो उठता हूं।

Releasing function of book MAHASWAPNAM MAHATMA GANDHI compiled by Dr Nagasuri Venugopal, Asst Director, AIR, Hyderabad

 Details of releasing function of book MAHASWAPNAM MAHATMA GANDHI compiled by Dr Nagasuri Venugopal,  Asst Director,  AIR, Hyderabad  Sri Ravela Somayya, the publisher,  Dr Nagasuri Venugopal,the editor, Justice B Sudarshan Reddy,  released the book ; Sti P Janardhan Reddy, a Gandhian who presided the event ; Advocate Sri Pratapa Reddy, the chief guest  and Sti M Papi Reddy , who received the first copy (from left to right)

On the ninth of August – the fateful day in 1945 on which an atomic bomb was thrown on the city of Nagasaki in Japan, the second bomb to bring the World War II to an end – a small book of about 135 pages, THE MAGINIFICIENT DREAM (Mahaswapnam) was released at Hyderabad commemorating the pacifist philosophy of the Mahatma. 

It is an attempt to compile the editorials of the veteran editor Narla Venkateswara Rao, the path breaker of journalism in Telugu (popularly referred to as V.R.Narla). The idea itself is the brainchild of Dr. Nagasuri Venugopal (at present with AIR) to show how a rationalist and atheist like V.R.Narla was so much appreciative of the life of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. It is well known that the staunch crusader of atheism, GORA, has also lived with the Mahatma in his Ashram for some time to understand him and succeeded in convincing him that Truth is higher than God. Thus, it is clear that Gandhi earned the respect of even his opponents for his sincerity and honesty by living his ideals. He proved to be a practical leader and succeeded to lead the freedom movement. Incidentally, he gave a gift of Truth and Non-violence to the body politic as the only way out of the present society dominated by guns and bombs in the hands of egocentric politicians.

The editorials of Narla are selected for the purpose of giving a perspective to the present generation to understand Gandhi. Narla asserted that Gandhi became a leader not because he wanted to be one; he became a leader because history thrust that responsibility on him, and he found himself unable to escape from it. Narla pointed out that Gandhi was not the first to postulate non-violence. Buddha and Jesus pleaded for it. But it is Gandhi that gave a practical perspective for it, to realise it in practice against brutal violence. By that he earned a place beside the two prophets. He condemned the idea of making India a Hindu State and dedicated his life to achieve harmony between the followers of various religions. Narla descried the assassination of Gandhi as something more frightening than an earthquake or volcanic eruption. He considered his birth as a fortune of India and at the same time it is an unbearable shame that he was assassinated by one of us. Partition of Indian subcontinent is the greatest crime in history, worse than even the Holocaust. The agony felt by Gandhi was unbearable and he wished for an early end to his life. The assassination came as if to fulfill his sad wish. The memory of the people is very short. The society travelled so far that the assassin is being applauded as a patriot worth emulation!

While compiling the editorials of Narla the compiler also felt it necessary to expel the notion that Gandhi was antagonistic to science and technology. He contributed his own articles for the purpose. He explained the deep friendship between Gandhi and Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia during their lifetime. In addition, he has added translations of rare articles about Gandhi by Anu Bandyopadhyay, Jawaharlal Nehru and Vincent Shien. Thus, in spite of being small, the book succeeded in giving a comprehensive view of Gandhi and his ideals and practical life. Dr. Nagasuri Venugopal deserves congratulations for it.

The book was released by the learned Justice B. Sudarsan Reddy (Retd) of Supreme Court of India. He explained the various aspects of Gandhi’s philosophy and how he was prepared to sacrifice himself to solve delicate problems. He also explained how he was instrumental in shaping the freedom movement with his moral authority. Mr. K. Pratap Reddy, the Senior Advocate and sincere believer in Gandhian philosophy lamented that those who are in power are only using the name of Gandhi whenever necessary to get credibility but always undermining his ideals. He asserted that Gandhi is more relevant and necessary today than when he was living. The meeting was presided over by the veteran socialist and former MLA Sri P. Janardan Reddy.

The book is published by Ram Manohar Lohia Samata Trust and Lohia Vignana Samiti under the auspices of Sri Ravela Somayya. He organized the meeting to bring Gandhi to the notice of the elite of the city lest they forget. His continuous efforts to uphold the torch of Socialism and Gandhism must be encouraged.

God's Own Voice : Yesudas

$
0
0
 The President, Shri Pranab Mukherjee presenting the Padma Vibhushan Award to Dr. K.J. Yesudas, at the Civil Investiture Ceremony, at Rashtrapati Bhavan, in New Delhi on April 13, 2017.

Yesudas inherited music from his father who was a classical musician. He started to learn the nuances of Carnatic music at a very young age. Yesudas has sung more than 30000 songs. He is proficient in both light as well as classical music. He was provided music teachings in all forms. He is singing since last four decades and no doubt, he is one of the geniuses of music world.
Right from the very beginning, Yesudas showed his musical talent. Soon the world came to know that, this music prodigy is going to create magic in music. At the age of seven, Yesudas got his first recognition by winning a gold medal for music at a local competition. He enhanced his music knowledge by receiving training from the Music Academy, Tripunithura and Swati Tirunal Music Academy, Trivandrum. These two institutions further enhanced his talents and refined them. He earned his diplomas in ‘Sangeethabhushanam’ and ‘Ganabhushanam’. Once he finished his training, he came to Chennai in search for singing opportunities. But life was very difficult initially. He was rejected numerous music directors and even AIR (All India Radio). He had to go through numerous hardships in search of that illusive break. But he did not lose heart and kept giving his best.
Initially he struggled a lot for a break and suffered many hardships when he roamed around Chennai looking for an opening, living mainly on tap water and faced rejections from music directors and AIR (All India Radio) Trivandrum. But young Yesudas patiently endured and persisted to achieve his life’s goal.
In 1973, he sang the song ‘Thanga Thoniyile’ for MGR-starrer Ulagam Sutrum Vaaliban. But it was ‘Vizhiye Kathaiyezhudu’ number he sung for MGR in Urimaikkural in 1974 that became the first Tamil song of Yesudas to gain wide popularity. Thereafter, he sang all the songs of MGR’s next film Pallaandu Vaazhga (1975). Superhit songs like ‘Poivaa Nadhialaiye’, ‘Anbukku Naan Adimai’, and ‘Ondre Kulamendru Paaduvom’ were in this film. Yesudas also sang songs like ‘Ennai Vittaal Yarumillai’ for Naalai Namadhe (1975) and ‘Indha Patchai Kilikkoru’ for Needhikku Thalai Vanangu (1976) for MGR. He also sang many superhit songs for Sivaji Ganesan starrers. ‘Malare Kurinji Malare’ for Dr. Shiva and ‘Gangai Yamunai Ingudhan Sangamam’ for Imayam are good examples. But above all, his number ‘Deivam Thandha Veedu Veedhiyirukku’ for Aval Oru Thodarkathai made him a very popular singer in Tamil.
It was Salil Chowdhury who took Yesudas to Hindi films. The song ‘Ni Sa Ga Ma Pa Ni’, a Salilda composition for the film Anand Mahal (1977) was Yesudas’ first Hindi song. The song ‘Jan e Mann’ from the film Chhoti Si Baath, scored by Salilda, was his first Hindi song that became popular. Afterwards, composer Ravindra Jain created a fan following for Yesudas by giving him many hit songs. Songs like ‘Jab Deep Jale Aana’ and ‘Tu Jo Mere Sur Mein’ from Chit Chor released in 1976 were truly unforgettable numbers. Jaidev composed some marvelous numbers with Yesudas rendering them. Even Bhappi Lahiri composed some soft romantic numbers in the voice of Yesudas like ‘Zid Na Karo’ and ‘Maana Ho Tum’.
He received the Padmashri from thePresident of India in 1977. He received the first National Award in 1977 for singing in the film Achanum Bappayum, his second National Award for the film Gayathri, the third National Award in 1978 for film Chitchor, the fourth National Award for the Telugu f ilm Mega sandesham, his fifth National Award for the flm Unnikale Oru Katha Parayaam, and his sixth in 1992 for the film Bharatham.
The film Chitchor also won him a Filmfare Special Award. Alaap got him the Sur Singar Samsad Award and Dada the Filmfare award in 1980. In 1991, he received an honorary doctorate degree from the Annamalai University in recognition for his contributions to music and art. He received the Lata Mangeshkar Award in 1991. Besides these national awards, Yesudas is the recipient of 16 Kerala State Awards, eight State Awards from TamilNadu, 5 state Awards from Karnataka, four State Awards from Andra Pradesh and one State Award from Bengal. In 1992 he received the distinguished honor of "Star of Cochin" from the citizens of Cochin. The government of Kerala has named Yesudas "Asthana Gayakan".
