Whenever the history of Indian cinema is recited, Satyajit Ray is placed in a prominent position and on the 97th birth anniversary of this great auteur, let us revisit his life in brief…

Born on May 2, 1921 in Bengal, Ray started his career as a commercial artist before being drawn to independent filmmaking after meeting French filmmaker Jean Renoir and watching Vittorio De Sica’s Italian neorealist film Bicycle Thieves (1948) during a visit to London.

The multi-talented Ray directed 36 films, including feature films, documentaries and shorts and was also a fiction writer, publisher, illustrator, calligrapher, music composer, graphic designer and film critic.

Satyajit Ray was considered to be the man who changed the face of Indian cinema forever and his approach towards filmmaking ranked him among the best filmmakers of the world.

Some of Ray’s timeless classics are The Apu Trilogy: Pather Panchali, Aparajito, Apur Sansar, Pather Panchali (1955), Aparajito (1956), Apur Sansar (1959), Charulata (1964), Teen Kanya (1961), Goopy Gyne Bagha Byne (1969).

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarded him an Honorary Academy Award in 1992. For those who do not know this, Ray is the first and the only Indian, to receive the honor. Ray passed away on 23 April 1992 at the age of 71.
