Om Puri on Satyajit Ray 

Man! who would say he almost left NSD because he had a problem speaking English? He sounds like an author, describing each and every nuance with such finesse. A legend who never got his due in India.

This is a gem of an interview, one remarkable actor reminiscing about another legendary director. Amazing

Wow, just mesmerising. One of India's finest actors speaking about the greatest director of all time. As a bengali I am so proud of Satyajit Ray sir.

Oh! I'm speechless!! A legend talking about another. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

It’s amazing that Om Puri, who was not formally educated , spoke such good English , in fact better than most Indians who are formally educated … and what a heartfelt tribute to legend of Satyajit Ray ! Truly , like Ompuri said , Satyajit Ray will never be dead and nor will be Ompuri…

The very last line " দেখা হবে মানিকদা" will meet again...may be they are together now... 🙏🙏 Both are men with great personalities...Satyajit sir and mr. Om Puri

Just finished watching Sadgati (1981) after listening to this. Beautiful movie. I have been unlucky not to have experienced any of Mr. Ray's movies thus far. But, I am also extremely lucky because I get to start that journey now.

Two gems of Indian Cinema, Mr. Ray & Om Puri.

Ray is not only Ray, he carried the legacy of Sukumar Roy,Upendrakishore Roy and Dwarakanath Ganguly.... A great talk on Satyajit Ray.

This is a wonderful piece of talk. Well, as Bengali, we know many aspects of Satyajit Ray. But this speech tells us the sensitive character of Om Puri more. Of course, he was sensitive, articulate, and cerebral, but as a human being, he surpasses many others.

Satyajit Ray should be more honoured when he was making films and alive.. He is India's gem. He should get more love and respect when he was alive. Industries were remained ungrateful then. It's give me so much pain alltime. He is such a true inspiration for all.

What a tribute to the maestro from a great actor. Om Puri's homage had everything from humility to humour, from anecdotes to anger -- but there was no mistaking the deep respect and awe he had for Satyajit Ray. Thank you so much for uploading this gem

What an interview! One of India's greatest actors on perhaps her greatest director. I saw Sadgati only once in mid 1982, on a TV screen at a neighbor's house in Kolkata, just before leaving India to come to the US, and memories are somewhat sketchy. Knew Ray's greatness ever since 1955, but really appreciated the style and content of Om Puri's "homage".

When two of India's greatest talents of Cinema converge for an artistic expression , SUBLIME slice of life is what you get ! ❤️🙏

"ধুৎ শালা" was so cute and "দেখা হবে মানিকদা" was devine.....thanks a lot for uploading this 'GEM'......My Regards....

Satyajit Ray sir can pick up anything and make it or convert into gem 💎. You were already gem 💎 sire 😘❤️

Can you believe the kind of cinema we had. And the kind of cinema we have now. Its just heart breaking.

A fine narration by Om Puri, himself a great actor. A fine tribute to Ray.

The last line touched me.."Dekha hobe Manik da"...Guess they have met and continue their cinema up there

Ray Sir was expert in getting perfection from imperfections. I am 40 and i still love watching Feluda s. My childhood was under his movies

For me cinema is Akira Kurosawa & Satyajit Ray.

A very rare remembrance from a great actor. Thank you for uploading it. Keep on adding to your stupendous collection on Ray.

By listening this speech I can only say I discover Om Puri and Satyajit Ray again. Bollywood underrated Om Puri a lot.

What a touchy recall by Om Puri to the man he really admired & respect so much

একজন অসামান্য শক্তিশালী অভিনেতার কাছ থেকে একজন প্রচন্ড প্রতিভাবান সৃষ্টিশীল মানুষকে নিয়ে কিছু অসাধারণ স্মৃতিচারণ শুনলাম। "মহারাজা, তোমারে সেলাম।"

Such legends should have a lifespan of 400 years.

This I have noticed about everyone... when you get to know more about someone all you have about them is respect.

"Dakha hobe Manik da".. sweet! I'm sure dakha hoyeche. This was precious! Thank you for uploading 🙏

Satyajit Ray is a legendary director. His movies are very asthetic and emerge different kind of feelings

Thank you @Soorojit. You have injected Ray back into today's consciousness. Much needed. I am in Tears listening to this and other of your shared gems. Thanks so much 🙏🏼

Rare experience ,great experience to hear about a great person from a real film person 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Such beautiful expression of emotions like love, respect that one can have about another person.

The last word of Om Puri "Will meet again Manik da " is so poignant. We lost Om Puri too, it was sudden and shocking. One of the greats of Indian cinema who was under utilized , underappreciated. Will miss you forever.

I thank you very much fir the speech that Om Puri delivered on Satyjit Ray touching his humble, humen angle , simplicity and one of the bests writer director in the film world that India had

What an upload dada..Thank you so much..and what a speech from a great actor to one of the greatest directors. and that slapping moment on bollywood..

14:21 "ajkal is a rag" Wow that line echoed through decades

"দেখা হবে মানিক দা' So touchy..!

The videos , you post are gems . Not only your uploads amaze me , but also I pay respect to your work . Admire your research . Indebted to you. We are getting richer with each upload .

Om Puri is a great man. He, Naseeruddin Shah, and Anupam Kher studied in Delhi and studied National School of Drama in Delhi.(watch on Anupam Kher TV program).

No words to thank for sharing this audio file. I admire om puri and satyajit ray is godly. Hearing these words from om puri is invaluable

Priceless .Thanks for uploading this gem .

We also miss our dear Om Puri....

ThIs was really special.... Such wonderful ad fond recollection.... Ashadharon..

Awwweee.......such an overwhelming feeling of bliss through words. True respect of one great for another who can be considered the greatest ever Satyajit Ray......

ভাই, ভগবান তোমার মঙ্গল করুন। তুমি যা করছো, তা অক্ল্পনীয়।

An aesthetic & sleek recall by an eminent actor deep from heart to a legendary one that I have ever listen. Both Mr. Ray & Puri were born for the sake of art & culture only.

Brilliant outspoken Mr. Om Puri. I have listen a lot about legendary director Satyajit Ray but no one is very close to Om Puri. So frank and yet sensitive on his speaking. I miss the great actor Om Puri. He has enriched Indian Movie to a large extent.

This is an unintentional ASMR. This man's narration was always brilliant. The eloquence. The weight in the voice. Rest in peace sir. #unintentionalasmr

When Om Puri says "Dekha hobe Manikda" you are bound tp tear up.

What a gem. Miss Om Puri. Just spoke the truth.

My Fav Om Ji

I loved the moment when Shri Om Puri talks about a lady who suggested to Shri Satyajit Ray that he should wear Kurta Pajama. And he replies that then he will look like Mrinal Sen. What a moment. Brilliant! 😊🙏

Simply majestic. I really didn't know that Om Puri can give such speech. It is great tribute to a great man by a great actor of all times. Very much impressed about his description. Very touchy. Nice collection.

It's an intense speech. Moved.

I have never experienced such excitement in any interview before. Thank you.

orebbas, apnake to cultivate korte hocche moshai...you are doing a great job is an understatement. You are creating a rare archive. Thanks

Om Puri ji was quite upfront and maybe rightfully so. Especially with the amount of talent he possessed and hardwork he did, he couldn't be blamed for being so upfront. Such beautiful stories on Satyajeet Ray. A tribute from a legend to another legend 🙂

महान निर्देशक को हृदय से श्रद्धांजलि🌹🌹🙏🙏

Excellent speech from Mr Om Puri on Satyajit Ray. I also understand why he became a famous actor in Bollywood.

Beautiful tribute to Maestro from a great actor

बड़े दुख की बात है, कि बंगाल के बाहर एवं अंग्रेजी बोलने वाली जनता के अलावा सत्यजीत राय लगभग अनजान हैं।

Loved Om Puri's note. A great upload. God bless you.

Thank you for posting this

We miss these kind of men these days.

Like Satyajit Ray, Om Puri has also left behind footprints on the sands of time.

God loves nature in harmony! No conflict! Pure consciousness! Ie vidhura ie no virodha In Hindi script ,cross word puzzle is in virodha becomes vidhura It is said vidhura and Krishan are two sides of same coin! Superb memoir

Thank you for this. And I mean this wholeheartedly. It is a gem. Thank you for unearthing it for us. 🙏
