पछिल्लो समयमा चलचित्र समिक्षकको परिचय बनाएका निर्देशक मनोज पण्डितले आफूले निर्देशन गरेको चलचित्र 'दासढुंगा' लाई नेफ्टा अवार्डमा सहभागी नगर्न बताएका छन् ।
केहि दिन अगाडी सार्वजनिक गरिएको नेफ्टा अवार्डको नोमिनेशनबाट चित्त नबुझे पछि निर्देशक पण्डितले हात झिकेका हुन् । अवार्डको मूल्याङकन प्रक्रियामा असहमत देखिएका पण्डितको दासढुंगा उत्कृष्ट चलचित्र सहित उत्कृष्ट निर्देशक, अभिनेता, खलपात्र र सहअभिनेता गरि पाँच बिधामा मनोनयनमा परेको छ । चलचित्रको प्राबिधिक पाटो र कलात्मक प्रस्तुतीको मूल्याङकन नहुँदा उनले अवार्डमा असहमती जनाएका हुन् ।
पण्डितले आफ्नो फेसबुक वालमा बिज्ञप्ती जारी गर्दै यस्तो निर्णय लिएका हुन् । निर्देशक पण्डित मात्र हैनन् अन्य केहि चलचित्रकर्मी पनि नेफ्टा अवार्डको मनोनयनबाट असन्तुष्ट रहेको बुझिएको छ । चलचित्रको सहि मूल्याङन गर्न नसक्दा केहि चलचित्रकर्मीले अवार्डको मनोनयन सूची वैज्ञानिक हुन नसकेको बताउँदै आएका छन् ।
चलचित्र विकास बोर्डले विशेष फिल्मको मान्यता दिएको चलचित्र 'दासढुंगा' ले गत बर्ष नै राष्ट्रिय चलचित्र अवार्ड सहितका अन्य अवार्डमा थुप्रै बिधामा अवार्ड हात पारिसकेको छ । चलचित्रलाई अपिल बिष्टले निर्माण गरेका हुन् । उनी बिगत एक बर्ष देखि आफ्नो चलचित्रलाई बिश्वका बिभिन्न मुलुकमा प्रदर्शन गर्दै आईरहेका छन् ।
निर्देशक पण्डितले जारी गरेको बिज्ञप्ती यस्तो छ -
Dasdhunga to opt out from the nominations in NEFTA film award.
Can you ever imagine a film being good without being good in its literature and technicals?.If the two important elements aren't strong enough to inspire audiences then the film will be failure in its content and context.Thus my point is if someone chooses the film as potential film to be appreciated then any aspects of the literature and technicals needs to be interesting enough to captivate audiences cinematic experience.
with this basic practices worldwide I am here to announce to opt out from the ongoing NEFTA film award where my film Dasdhunga has been nominated for best film,best director and actors categories but left out in literature and technicals department which I think was strong enough to narrate the interesting story.My analysis of this nomination process seems very illogical and biased.My verdict is that they have given the nomination of Dasdhunga only because it already had won the Jury award for best film in National award ceremony as well the special film by Film Development Board.I have watched myself lots of film being nominated in this award and I have also reviewed some of them Thus I can analysis what are the priors to the jury and the team.with their final verdict I can figure out that Dasdhunga is not the film of their selection indeed.so I have finally come out to declare opting out my film from all the nomination and want to inform the organizer through this note which will be published in my social network site Facebook.
I want organizers to take it positively since I only have ideological differences with the critical analysis of creative aspects of films.Initially I had expectation of having creative review on films but after analyzing of initial output I have come to decide opting out my nominations.I have also come out to decide that i will not be participating in such films award(mainstream)anymore in Nepal.
Awards are given to appreciate the creative practice in film making and to inspire creative people to excel their expertise and output.I hope this attitude and objective will be prevailed in coming years.
Thank you
