Folk Goddesses of Bengal

মনসা (rom. Manasa)

The goddess of snakes. Known for her vengeance, and her easy benevolence which she takes after her father, Shiva. Worshipped for fertility, as well as for protection during the monsoon when her subjects, the snakes are most active. Her stories form the integral part of the folktales of an undivided Bengal.

What if Idris Elba & Damson Idris played in a movie together? What if that movie was about the richest man who ever lived, Mansa Musa? What if it was also about the first Africans to explore the Atlantic Ocean and discover the Americas over 150 years before Christopher Columbus, Mansa Abu Bakr II? Would you go watch it?

Like many of you, I want to see and tell stories about OUR people. I want to see those stories told at a Hollywood production level. We deserve it (Hollywood is uninspired, right now anyway).

I’m not using AI to fool anybody, I’m using AI because I don’t have the money or the connections to get in a room with the executives at #appletv #universalpictures #netflix #primevideo #wbpictures #paramountpics #disneystudios or #sonypictures to help them see the big picture (yes, I did just tag all of them. This is a pitch 😁)

I know there are many others that want to tell #MansaMusa’s story like @michaelbjordan & #RyanCoogler (@proximitymedia @outlier_society lemme know if y’all want to work with me 😬); I just want to see it done right!

Anyways, if you enjoy the video, follow @themansaverse as I intend to make more of these.

Tag anybody I mentioned or anybody you know that could help make this a reality.

Genre: Epic Historical Fantasy

Logline:

“In a world where magic and political intrigue intertwine, Musa, thrust into leadership, confronts a world of jinn and deep-seated betrayal. As he navigates a labyrinth of ancient magic and cunning enemies, he allies with a slave empowered by mystical forces, challenging the realities of his kingdom and faith.”

"Moose Wala could've lived anywhere he wanted. But he chose his village, his parents and his people," Mr Happy says. "He not just held on to his village identity but also sought to elevate it, despite its complexities." Mansa district, where Moose Wala's village is located, is widely seen as a backward region - it has one of the highest farmer suicide rates in Punjab and high unemployment levels and a serious groundwater crisis. "People don't want to be identified with the region - they want to leave and never come back," Mr Happy explains. "But Moose Wala was different. He took pride in his roots and his music urged listeners to proudly accept the village as home." This is captured most powerfully in Tibeyan Da Putt (Son of the sand dunes), signifying the semi-arid landscape of the region. "We do not belong to noble families/ Brought-up in the village and townships/ I don't have any existence of my own/ Yet, influential people fear me," the lyrics say.
