Product description

Review

'Apart from being one of the greatest filmmakers of our time, Ray is a most singular symbol of what is best and most revered in Indian cinema.' ― Adoor Gopalakrishnan

'Satyajit Ray, I salute you. The greatest of our poets of the cinema' ― Ben Kingsley

'I think he (Ray) has it in his blood. ... He is the father of Indian cinema.' ― Jean Renoir

'I must admit I get rather restive when people write saying that my first published story was my best. Perhaps Satyajit feels the same about his own first born. But surely Pather Panchali is one of the most heartbreakingly beautiful films ever made. There are scenes which I need never view again because they are burnt upon my memory.' ― Arthur C. Clarke
