Mujhe Jeene Do, directed by Moni Bhattacharjee, offers an authentic and nuanced depiction of dacoit lives in the Chambal Valley. The film follows the story of dacoit Jarnail Singh(Sunil Dutt), a hardened outlaw living amidst the ravines of Chambal in Madhya Pradesh. His life of crime is complicated when he falls in love with Chameli (Waheeda Rehman), a resilient woman who, despite her hardships, retains her principles and stands by Jarnail. Their relationship explores themes of interfaith marriage, with Jarnail being Hindu and Chameli, Muslim, a subtle commentary on how the people who lead their lives on the fringes, escaping the watchful eyes of the mainstream society, negotiate some respite from the shackles of social and religious dogma.

चम्बल की घाटी के कुख्यात डाकुओं के जीवन को प्रामाणिकता और कुशलता के साथ सिनेमा के पर्दे पर पेश करनेवाली फ़िल्म मुझे जीने दो के निर्देशक मोनी भट्टाचार्जी थे। यह फिल्म मध्य प्रदेश में स्थित चम्बल की बीहड़ों में रहने वाले एक खतरनाक डाकू जरनैल सिंह (सुनील दत्त) की कहानी है। जरनैल सिंह का अपराधी जीवन तब अचानक उलझानेवाला मोड़ लेता है, जब उसे अपने सिद्धांतों पर कायम रहनेवाली और कठिनाइयों के बीच भी हर परिस्थिति में उसके साथ खड़ी होने को तैयार दृढ़ इच्छाशक्ति वाली स्त्री चमेली (वहीदा रहमान) से प्यार हो जाता है। जरनैल हिंदू है और चमेली मुस्लिम। उनके बीच बनता रिश्ता अंतर-धार्मिक विवाह के दूसरे सामाजिक पहलुओं की तफ़सील में जाता है। फ़िल्म यहाँ बड़ी बारीक़ी से टिप्पणी करती है कि कैसे मुख्यधारा समाज की चौकस निगाहों से बचकर हाशिये पर अपना जीवन जीने वाले लोग सामाजिक और धार्मिक हठधर्मिता की कैद से कुछ राहत पाने के लिए साथ आ जाते हैं। हालाँकि महबूब खान की औरत (1940) और उनके ही द्वारा निर्मित इसकी चर्चित रीमेक मदर इंडिया (1957) जैसी फ़िल्मों के चलते व्यावसायिक हिन्दी सिनेमा के लिए डकैत का किरदार अपरिचित नहीं रह गया था। लेकिन 1960 में विनोबा भावे द्वारा किया गया डकैतों के आत्मसमर्पण का आह्वान यकीनन उन्हें विमर्श के केंद्र में ले...
