BEST DIRECTORS IN CINEMA-3

Hi everyone! This blog is going to be the 3rd part of 8 Part Series of who I think are the Best Directors Cinema as ever seen

And today I will be talking about

SATYAJIT RAY

Satyajit Ray (born May 2, 1921, Calcutta [now Kolkata], India—died April 23, 1992, Calcutta) was a Bengali motion-picture director, writer, and illustrator who brought the Indian cinema to world recognition with Pather Panchali (1955; The Song of the Road) and its two sequels, known as the Apu Trilogy. As a director, Ray was noted for his humanism, his versatility, and his detailed control over his films and their music. He was one of the greatest filmmakers of the 20th century.

(Early Life)

Ray was an only child whose father died in 1923. His grandfather was a writer and illustrator, and his father, Sukumar Ray, was a writer and illustrator of Bengali nonsense verse. Ray grew up in Calcutta (now Kolkata) and was looked after by his mother. He entered a government school, where he was taught chiefly in Bengali, and then studied at Presidency College, Calcutta’s leading college, where he was taught in English. By the time he graduated in 1940, he was fluent in both languages. In 1940 his mother persuaded him to attend art school at Santiniketan, Rabindranath Tagore’s rural university northwest of Calcutta. There Ray, whose interests had been exclusively urban and Western-oriented, was exposed to Indian and other Eastern art and gained a deeper appreciation of both Eastern and Western culture, a harmonious combination that is evident in his films.

(His Famous Works)

Ray's first film, Pather Panchali (1955) won eleven international prizes, including the inaugural Best Human Document award at the 1956 Cannes Film Festival. This film, along with Aparajito (1956) and Apur Sansar (The World of Apu) (1959), form The Apu Trilogy. Ray did the scripting, casting, scoring, and editing, and designed his own credit titles and publicity material. He also authored several short stories and novels, primarily for young children and teenagers. Popular characters created by Ray include Feluda the sleuth, Professor Shonku the scientist, Tarini Khuro the storyteller, and Lalmohan Ganguly the novelist.

(Filmmaking Style)

His Filmmaking

Ray had been subconsciously paying a tribute to Jean Renoir throughout his career, who influenced him the most.Ray considered script-writing to be an integral part of direction. Initially he refused to make a film in any language other than Bengali. In his two non-Bengali feature films, he wrote the script in English; translators adapted it into Hindustani under Ray's supervision.The narrative structure of Ray's films are represented by musical forms such as sonata, fugue and rondo. Kanchenjunga, Nayak and Aranyer Din Ratri are examples of this structure.

(His Filmography)

Ray made over 36 feature film in his 4 decade long. He made movies such as Pather Panchali in 1955,Aparajito in 1956,Parash Pathar and Jalsaghar in 1958, Apur Sansar in 1959, Devi in 1960. He made movies such as Teen Kanya in 1961, Kanchenjungha and Abhijan in 1962,Mahanagar in 1963,Charulata and Two I'm 1964,Kapurush-0-Mahapurush in 1965,Nayak in 1966,Chiriyakhana in 1967,Goopy Gyne & Bagha Byne in 1969,Aranyer Din Ratri and Pratiwandi in 1970, Seemabaddha and Sikkim in 1971,Inner Eyes in 1972,Ashani Sanket in 1973,Sonar Kella in 1974,Jana Aranyw in 1975,Bala in 1976,Shatranj ka Khilari in 1977,Joi Baba Felunath in 1979,Hirak Rajar Deshe and Pikoo in 1980,Sadgati in 1981,Ghare Bhare in 1984,Sukumar Ray in 1987,Ganashatru and Shakha Proshakha in 1990,Agantuk in 1990.

He also won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival

(Legacy)

Ray is considered one of the greatest film directors of all time. He is a cultural icon in India and in Bengali communities worldwide. Following his death, the city of Calcutta came to a virtual standstill, as hundreds of thousands of people gathered around his house to pay their last respects. Ray's influence has been widespread and deep in Bengali cinema; many Bengali directors, including Aparna Sen, Rituparno Ghosh and Gautam Ghose as well as Vishal Bhardwaj, Dibakar Banerjee, Shyam Benegal and Sujoy Ghosh from Hindi cinema in India, Tareq Masud and Tanvir Mokammel in Bangladesh, and Aneel Ahmad in England, have been influenced by his craft.Beyond India, filmmakers Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, George Lucas, James Ivory, Abbas Kiarostami, Elia Kazan, William Wyler,François Truffaut, John Huston, Carlos Saura, Isao Takahata, Oliver Stone,Quentin Tarantino, Wes Anderson,Danny Boyle and Christopher Nolan.

JANMASTAMI CELEBRATION I brought my Kanha home and celebrated His birthday for the first time in my home after marriage. Being grown up seeing the auspicious Janmastami Celebration by my Granny and the big family all together was an amazing experience. But I had never learnt the rituals of any celebrations. Now, when Grandma is no more I wish I had asked her about all the rituals then and I miss her more. Fortunately, I have a bunch of people whom I read my mind an heart from any corner of the world. I do not need to ask them anything. Even when I do not know what to ask they already have the answers. They are my Masi ( mom's sister) and my cousin @biprojitpaulkundra . The moment they saw the picture in Watsapp status Masi called me up and cousin sent me an audio msg and both of them guided me about "gopal singar". But Masi as a mother has also guided my with the rituals and then I whole heartedly tried to follow the way it is.

Hello besties!

Here goes my first book review. Hope you'll like it and support me by giving a follow. Thankyou!

FELUDA BY SATYAJIT RAY

When one thinks of detectives, what typically comes to mind is 'Sherlock Holmes', 'Nancy Drew' and 'Hardy Boys'.

The 'Feluda Stories' by Satyajit Ray is a refreshing change with its fast-paced action, mysterious twists and turns and intricate stratagem.

Satyajit Ray was one of the greatest filmmakers of his time, winning an Oscar for Lifetime Achievement. Ray was also a writer and his stories became popular after being published in the children’s magazine 'Sandesh'.

The Feluda series were translated from Bengali to English by Gopa Majumdar.

Between 1965 and 1992, Satyajit Ray wrote a total of 35 Feluda stories, featuring the master sleuth~ Pradosh C. Mitter, AKA Feluda.

.

CHARACTER INSIGHTS :

.

Feluda, a 27- years-old bengali private detective with a sharp mind and knack for deduction. His acute attention to details is what makes him an ingenious private investigator. A man of numerous talents, he is ambidextrous with an eidetic memory. He solves many of his cases through the mere help of his quick-thinking and intelligent reasoning skill.

The plots involve solving of complex murders with ceaseless mystery and adventure, most of the times in exotic locations in India, narrated in a stimulating yet humorous style by the detective's teen cousin-cum-assistant Topesh Ranjan Mitter AKA Topshe.

In most of their adventures, they are accompanied by the amusing Lalmohan Ganguly better know as Jatayu who gives a comic relief throughout the book.

Lalmohan-babu’s wide eyed wonder and often unintended humour keeps Feluda from sounding too pedantic.

If you pick a Feluda to read, along with the mystery you will stumble across something idiosyncratic and interesting, a factoid that you can store away to savour for later or use as a springboard to know more.

Happy Monday lovely people ❤

As Divali is coming closer, I'm dreaming of these spongy, milky balls, soaked in that sugary syrup 🤤

These are called Rasgoola in Trinidad and Tobago and Gulab Jamun in other parts of the world. In Nepal it's known as Lal Mohan.

As a child, I loved going to the market just for this and rice cakes 😉

Now that I make it myself, I've had to make a rule to only make these for Divali 🤣 They are just too good, and once you start eating you'll literally have to pull one hand away from the other.

Make sure you find those pants with the elastic waist, because carb season (Divali) is upon us! I'm ready!

#gulabjamun or #lalmohan sweet treats for a sweet start of the day. Gulab jamun was first prepared in medieval India, derived from a fritter that Central Asian Turkic invaders brought to India. One theory claims that it was accidentally prepared by the Mughal emperor Shah Jahan's personal chef. (at Chandni Chowk)

Inktober Day 17: "Feluda,Topshe and Lalmohan babu"

Story : Feluda(detective novel series)

Author: Satyajit Ray

(I can't draw guns rip.)

Anyways,this is a very very popular series in Bengal, and Feluda (real name Prodosh Mitter) is often called the Bengali Sherlock Holmes. I read this long before Sherlock Holmes,like most Bengali kids of my generation. These books were LIFE in childhood. And they're based in Kolkata,my city,so even though it's set in the psst,it was very easy to relate.

English translations are available all over the internet and in bookstores,as far as I know. I had read the originals though.
