It is a very welcome development to bring out cultural heritage of Bihar. (Link) I will welcome it if Prakash Jha takes the mantle of cultural ambassador of Bihar. It will be good if he can bring the cultural heritage of Bihar on national scene, if possible taking other noted persons in cultural field with him. Together with some TV channel a Zee TV Sa Re Ga Ma type program can be sponsored at state level to bring out talents. Audio and video cassettes of devotional, rituals (like marriage etc) and entertainment songs in Bihari languages like Maithili, Bhojpuri and Magahi may be released. I am sure it will have a good market in huge population of Bihar and specially Biharis settled out of state and out of country will definitely welcome them.Prakash Jha has made many notable films on the life in Bihar. However most of them were based on violence and clashes present in society, though they were for real. However I will welcome it if he makes an entertaining film portraying some good things in the life of a Bihari, some scenic beauty of Bihar. I am sure many people in Bihar are doing good things and living happy life and that is also a reality. A good film need not always be based 100 % on reality, it can portray some wishful thinking too as "Munna Bhai" did for Gandhigiri. This will bring a change in perception about life in Bihar and about Bihar at national level. It may even give a new direction in life to many Biharis who have not been exposed to life outside Bihar or outside the country.
