अनुवाद - मिलिंद चंपानेरकर


सुप्रसिद्ध अभिनेत्री वहिदा रेहमानशी केलेल्या संवादावर, चर्चेवर आधारित "काॅन्व्हर्सेशन्स विथ वहिदा रेहमान" हे इंग्रजी पुस्तक लेखिका नसरीन मुन्नी कबीर ह्यांनी लिहिले. त्याच पुस्तकाचा मिलिंद चंपानेरकर यांनी हा मराठी अनुवाद केला आहे. वहिदाच्या लाखो चाहत्यांनी अगदी वाचलेच पाहिजे असे हे पुस्तक आहे. 'प्यासा', 'गाइड', 'तीसरी कसम', 'खामोशी' आदी चित्रपटांतून आव्हानात्मक भूमिका साकार करणार्‍या वहिदाने चित्रपटसृष्टीत आपलं विशेष स्थान निर्माण केलं. तिच्या कारकिर्दीतले वेगवेगळे चित्रपट कसे घडले ह्याच्या पडद्यामागच्या रंजक कहाण्या वहिदाने मोकळेपणी ह्या संवादांमध्ये सांगितल्या आहेत. तिचा स्वत:चा चित्रपटसृष्टीतील प्रवास ह्या संवादांच्या ओघात आपल्याला समजत जातो. जुन्या हिंदी चित्रपटांच्या शौकिनांनी व वहिदाच्या चाहत्यांनी जरूर वाचावे असे पुस्तक.

  फक्त चोवीस तास नाही पुरत फक्त चोवीस तास दिवसात अठ्ठे चाळीस तास तरी हवेत इतके काही करायचे असते.... वाचायचे असते, लिहायचे असते पाहायचे असते, अभ्यासायचे असते पण हां हां म्हणता संध्याकाळ होते अंधार पडतो, दिवेलागण होते बघता बघता सामसूम होऊ लागते घराघरातील दिवे मालवू लागतात वाचताना डोळ्यांवर झापड येते शब्दांचे अर्थ कळेनासे होतात शरीर दमून, थकून जाते आणि शरणागती घेत हे स्वीकारावे लागते की अजून एक दिवस संपला आहे रवींद्र शेणोलीकर
