Love, Loyalty, Lust and Loss of pride for Bihar Women

Has anyone found songs from Bihar to be very special and get Grammy award but wait they have their own Bihar Kokila rather than Bharat Kokila who was Sarojini Naidu. Now, please do not start thinking about Mr. Khushwant Singh and his famous nitamb story of the ant and so on.

Here is the story of a Bihar Singer who try to go all out to sustain their work and then dig out few nondescript people who are from the village background and sing nothing more than a folklore which is described by the common people as the songs of divine Goddess.

Now, if we talk about the songs from Mithilanchal or the area of Darbhanga or Madhubani does it create any global impact when compared with Beyonce or maybe Jennifer Lopez. Women like "Sharda Sinha" who must have traveled to foreign trips must have gone to Mauritius or Maldives where the original sugarcane field operators reached during the time of Britishers for earning that extra buck.

It is well known that people from Bihar went on as slaves to these countries and even to Trinidad and Tobago along with various Eastern-African countries. These people were concerned more about land as they were denied of land in their own village and thus title themselves as Bhumihar-Literally meaning the person who is devoid of land and culture.

Now, such people are very less in number in the same countries where the original people like Muslims and the African population has taken them over and the meteoric rise in terms of property along with agriculture field passed onto the next generation who got mixed with locals. Surely, the locals overtook in various places and now if their population is concerned it is nothing more than few titles and subtitles like Sinha, Sharma, Pandey, and Tiwari.

So, the love and loyalty towards other countries could not provide them apart from few people who try to propagate their lost heritage by giving themselves a slot on Television and not only that sometimes there various awards and surnames such as "Bihar Kokila" does not make them a great name as their past is known to every people.

Even if the few of their well-wishers from their own family try to give them the opportunity for coming up on T.V. which is nothing but commercial features these days, it's not going to give then a great name as none of them are giving chance for a concert and neither any album is pulled out which can give them awards on national level just forget the international tours.

So, your lusty songs which were more about the saga where people use to dance on the music and talking about the Bakula and "Bagula" was nothing more than lust for the generation of that time during 60's or 70's.

Neither, there is any person in current generation who sings your folklore and neither Goddes Saraswati has given you any boon to get above the rest, so please do not start with the slang "का बिगड़ा विष्णु का जब भृगु ने मारा लात"!!!
