Wonderful explanation by Javed Akhtar about the film making of Maestro Satyajit Ray. The movie ""Sadgati ""of 1981 which written by writer Premchand Munshi is a social epic. Late Smita patil and late OM Puri acted magnificently. The story is really real and genuine our social problem.Satyajit Ray is the master of ground reality cinema. He never cared for money making. He just directed films to show people the ground reality and entertain the genuine reality. He is one the World most creative Cinematic director who created a dozen of movies for the masses and the people of classy mood and conception.His ""Kanchenghangha ""movie of 1962 is really a problem related to financially stable family and their love and divorce and problem of educated young man Ashok who is trying to find a job but not giving up self respect and dignity. ""Pather Panchali ""his greatest movie of 1952. He is immortal for all the ages.
While Mr Akhtar is delivering the absolute truth in his assessment of India that we can see in Ray's films, you can observe the audience totally disillusioned-staring at their watches, the discomfort of being seated at an event more out of commitment to their status than to their interest in Ray. It seems like he was talking to the wall. This talk is beautiful, perfectly delivered in the wisdom of a child who is fascinated by the perfect observation you find in Ray's films.
