Deep Jele Jai - A Bengali Film

Just downloaded the bengali film Deep Jele Jai on line. I saw this film many years ago and yesterday I saw it again. It is an excellent movie by Shuchitra Sen. Just go to Google and find the free downloading.

It is a story of a hospital nurse who serves a mental patient to give light into his heart so that the patient can be recovered. The nurse was asked to act as a lover of the mental patient as a part of therapy. Finally, the patient gets recovered and releases from the hospital after all those therapies. But the nurse, who was supposed to act as lover, falls in love with the patient in reality. As soon as the patient walks away from hospital, the nurse becomes mentally ill and got admitted into the same hospital as a mental patient. The name of the nurse was Radha

The famous songs are:
1. Ei raat tomar amar ...
2. Tomar moton sister ...


If you have time, you can download it. Just type Deep Jele Jai  in Google search box. You will see two film, one got English subtitle and other do not have.

Here, Deep means light or candle, Jele Jai means I am lightening. So the name of the film  I am lightening candle

Here, the nurse Radha lightening the candle in the hearts of the mental patients. As a result, patients get recovered from mental distress but at the cost of Radha's agony.

The film reminds me about Florence Nightingale, a favorite personality of mine. Florence Nightingale was a nurse, served war injured patients in a hospital. At night, she used to visit her patients with a lamp and that is why she is known as The lady with the Lamp

I am gradually making a website of Florence Nightingale and will be releasing in future
