Saroj Khan

सरोज खान (निर्मला नागपाल) हिंदी सिनेमा की सबसे मशहूर और कामयाब डांस कोरियोग्राफर थीं। लगभग चालीस वर्षों के कैरियर के साथ, उन्होंने 2000 से अधिक गानों को कोरियोग्राफ किया और उन्हें “द मदर ऑफ डांस / कोरियोग्राफी ” के नाम से भी जाना जाता है। 3 जुलाई, 2020 को अचानक कार्डियक अरेस्ट के कारण उनका निधन हो गया।

उन्होंने फिल्म कोरियोग्राफर बी.सोहनलाल के अधीन काम करते हुए डांस सीखा। बाद में, वह खुद एक कोरियोग्राफर के रूप में कोरियोग्राफी में शिफ्ट हो गईं, और गीता मेरा नाम (1974) के साथ एक स्वतंत्र कोरियोग्राफर के रूप में उन्हें ब्रेक मिला। श्रीदेवी के साथ हवा हवाई, मिस्टर इंडिया (1987), नगीना (1986) और चांदनी (1989), और बाद में माधुरी दीक्षित के साथ एक दो तीन , तेजाब (1988), तम्मा तम्मा लोगे, थानेदार (1990), धक धक करने लगा , बेटा (1992) जैसी सफल फिल्मे की। इसके बाद, वह बॉलीवुड की सबसे सफल कोरियोग्राफर बन गई।

सरोज खान की अन्य लोकप्रिय फिल्मों में डर, बाजीगर, मोहरा, दिलवाले दुल्हनिया ले जाएंगे, सोल्जर, ताल, वीर-ज़ारा, डॉन, सांवरिया, लगान, तनु वेड्स मनु रिटर्न्स, मणिकर्णिका शामिल हैं।

बॉलीवुड में 40 साल तक अपने हुनर से सितारों को चमकाने वाले मास्टरजी, द मदर ऑफ डांस / कोरियोग्राफी अब खुद सितारों से जा मिलीं हैं। बेशक अब वे हमारे साथ नहीं रहीं, परन्तु फिल्मी वर्ल्ड के बीच वे अपने जानदार, शानदार और न भूलने वाले काम के लिए हमेशा याद की जाएँगी। भाव भीनी श्रद्धांजलि।

A plant known as ‘Dancing Ladies’ (Globba andersonii) thought to be extinct for 135 years located in Sikkim Himalayas.

A plant known as Dancing Ladies (Globba andersonii) thought to be extinct for 135 years has been located in Sikkim Himalayas near the Teesta river valley. Globba andersonii, commonly known as  ‘dancing ladies’ or ‘swan flowers’ was last seen during 1875. The plant generally grows in a dense colony on bare rocky slopes in the outskirts of evergreen forests. It is especially prevalent near small waterfalls along the roadside leading to these hill forests which are 400-800 m above the sea level. Micro-propagation, tissue culture and multiplication of this species and its re-introduction in the natural habitat could be helpful for it to survive and thrive in the future. News of the recovery of ‘dancing ladies’ is indeed a good one and amusing.
