করিনা, অভিষেক আর 'রিফিউজি'

আজ থেকে কুড়ি বছর আগে বলিউড ইন্ডাস্ট্রিতে পা দিয়েছিলেন দুই অভিনেতা-অভিনেত্রী । স্টারকিড, নেপোটিজ়ম এইসব বিতর্ক বাদ দিয়ে যদি দেখা যায়, তাহলে সেই দু'জনেই ছিলেন খুব প্রতিভাবান । তাই 20 বছর পেরিয়ে গেলেও আজ তাঁরা ভীষণ জনপ্রিয় । কথা হচ্ছে অভিষেক বচ্চন আর করিনা কাপুরকে নিয়ে ।

মুম্বই : 2000 সালে এই দিনেই 'রিফিউজি' ছবির মাধ্যমে বলিউডে পা রাখেন অভিষেক বচ্চন আর করিনা কাপুর । তখন কোথায় তাঁদের অভিজ্ঞতা, কোথায় স্টারডম ? একেবারে সাদামাটা এক ছেলে আর এক মেয়ে 'রিফিউজি' দিয়ে ক্যারিয়ার শুরু করেছিলেন সেদিন । ছবির নাম 'রিফিউজি' হলেও বলিউডে পাকাপাকি জায়গা করে নিয়েছেন দু'জনেই ।

করিনা কাপুর ইনস্টাগ্রামে শেয়ার করেছেন তাঁর ক্যারিয়ারের প্রথম শট । চোখেমুখে লেগে তাঁর বৃষ্টি ভেজা চুল । ক্যাপশনে অভিনেত্রী লিখেছেন, "ভোর চারটের সময় আমি আমার প্রথম শট দিয়েছিলাম । চারটের সময় উঠে আয়ানায় নিজেকে দেখলাম আর বললাম, এটাই আমার জীবনের সেরা সিদ্ধান্ত..."

অন্যদিকে অভিষেক একটি গ্রাফিকাল প্রেজ়েন্টেশনের মাধ্যমে বর্ণনা করেছেন তাঁর এই পুরো জার্নিটা । নিজের করা বিভিন্ন চরিত্রগুলোকে সাজিয়ে দিয়েছেন কুড়ির দুই অঙ্কের মধ্যে ।

লিখেছেন, "উপভোগ করলে সময়ও উড়তে পারে । রোড টু 20 ।" দেখে নিন অভিষেকের আবেগপ্রবণ পোস্ট...

  Time flies when you’re having fun! #RoadTo20 Today, 20 years ago JP Dutta’s Refugee released. Marking the introduction of yours truly and @kareenakapoorkhan into the world of films. Your first film is always most dear and special; Refugee was no different. An amazing experience! A newcomer could not have asked for anything else. JP sahab was the best teacher. Caring, nurturing and has since been an amazing guiding force for me. The entire cast and crew were so patient,supportive and encouraging. My love and respect for all of them is boundless. Thank you! It is a blessing and a privilege to be able to look back and recount the last 20 years. Any actor will tell you, getting to make a film is a huge honour. Surviving 20 yrs seems unimaginable. The best part is, I feel like I’m just getting started. I have so much more to prove. So much more to do and I can’t wait.... However, none of this would have been possible without my family! They have been my inspiration, my strength, my silent support and my “raison d”être”. They allowed me the freedom to figure out whatever I needed to without ever pressurising me, burdening me with expectation. They let me know when they didn’t like a performance and showered me with love when they did. I am because of them and I hope, some day whey they look back and reminisce they feel proud of me. But, now this is sounding like the end.... nowhere near it. Like I said, I’m just getting started. And “miles to go before I sleep”. Like the great Sinatra said- “ The record shows, I took the blows And did it my way!” #TakeTwo . . . Pic courtesy: @fifipewz
