Hindi and Bhojpuri-language films are produced in the state of Bihar in northern India, and there are smaller Maithili, Nepali, Angika, Awadhi and Magahi film industries. Bihar specializes in Bhojpuri films. == History == Cinema in Bihar dates to the early years of the 20th century, when Jamshedji Framji Madan acquired the Elphinstone Theatre Company of Bombay in 1902 and converted it into the Elphinstone Bioscope Company. The Elphinstone Theatre in Patna became the Elphinstone Cinema, showing silent shorts until the advent of sound films. It continues in existence, with different ownership after the Madan empire's collapse during the 1930s. Another silent-cinema theatre in China Kothi, Patna, closed early in the sound era (1931). The first sound theatre in Patna was in the Babu Bazar in the southwestern part of the city and opened with ''Veer Abhimanyu'' in 1933 or 1934. The theatre was destroyed by a fire fed by nitrate film, and was never rebuilt. Prakash Jha made his feature-film debut with 1984's ''Hip Hip Huray'', a Hindi film shot in Jharkhand (then part of Bihar) and processed in Bombay. ''Patang'' was directed by Goutam Ghose. As of May 2012, more than 150 completed films are awaiting release. ''Bhaiyaa'', a Magahi-language film, was released in 1961.〔http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0236021/ Bhaiyaa - First Magadhi language film〕 The first Bhojpuri-language film, ''Ganga Maiya Tohe Piyari Chhadhaibo'', was made in 1962 and released the following year (although Bhojpuri and Maghi were spoken in a few earlier films, such as ''Gunga Jumna'' and ''Nadiya Ke Paar''). Films such as ''Laagi Nahi Chhute Ram'' and ''Bideshiya'' were popular in the Bhojpur district. Bollywood's ''Nadiya Ke Paar'' is one of the best-known Bhojpuri-language movie. The first Maithili-language film was 1965's ''Kanyadan'',〔http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0236358/ Kanyadan - First Maithili language film〕 directed by Phani Majumdar. The film, about a man who decides to learn Maithili because it is his wife's only language, is based on Harimohan Jha's Hari Mohan Jha novel ''Kanyadaan''. ''Bhauji Maay'' and ''Mamta Gaave Geet'' (directed by C. Parmanand) were also popular; the latter was noted for its music and plot. ''Sasta Jinagai Mahag Sinur'' (directed by Muarli Dhar and released in 1999) was a successful Maithili film, with songs by Md Aziz, Sadhana Sargam, Udit Narayan and Deepa Narayan. Another successful Maithili film, ''Kakhan Harab Dukh Mor'', was based on the life of the Maithil poet Vidyapati. Phool Singh played the lead role, with music by Gyaneshwar Dubey. Other Maithili films include ''Senurak Laaj'' and ''Dularua Babu''. Ashu-Priya Productions' ''Aau Piya Hamar Nagari'' was released in 2000, but was unsuccessful. Murli Dhar directed 90 percent of the film, with Manikant Mishra completing it. In November 2007 the Maithili film ''Sindurdan'' was released but the film was withdrawn from theatres due to sound problems. ''Senuriya'', directed by B.D. Prasad Chaudhary with music by Gyaneshwar Dubey, is dubbed from Tamil into Maithili with Surya and Diva Shree in lead roles as actors and Rami Reddy as an antagonist. Banner Dev Kala Arts and A. Y. Movies' 2005 ''Garibak Beti'', about the dowry system and directed by 22-year-old Ajay Yash, was a low-budget Maithili success. Yash's next film was 2010's ''Mayak Karz'', for the same producers. Two Maithili films were released in 2011: ''Sajana Ke Anagana Me Solah Singaar'' (directed by Murli Dhar) and ''Mukhiya Jee'' (directed by Vikash Jha). Another successful Maithili movie AN IDEAL LADY-RAMAULWALI was released in november 2014 about mishmash marriage directed by Niraj yadav and Randhir singh 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cinema of Bihar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
