This man is himself an institution, we have to learn from him every day of our life. What a personality and the word throwing style , and of course his in depth knowledge about world cinema, fascinating.
In todays 2022 days, do not see a bangali intellectual who can speak in depth and with best in class accent like him.. In last 50 years , we have turned really backward
Who has prevented you from becoming one? Only paying lip service is not going to take you anywhere 😉... Besides , there actually are many- Abhijit Banerjee and Bhramar Mukherjee, to name two.
We haven't as yet found anyone to fit in his shoes. Be that in intellect, style or personality he continues to have a profound influence upon all of us even today.
And this is what I am talking about ! Intellectually on top of the radar yet humble. A person with very high self esteem will talk like this. Zero pride and zero attitude. Speaking in English yet no accent involved. Salute to this Gem of Calcutta 🙏🏻
Mr. Soorajit Mukherjee your RU-vid uploads are kind of thing that brings a lill smile on my face. I've a request can you please upload the conversation of Brando and Manik Da it was in Delhi I guess 60's or so Brando visited Delhi as an ambassador of unicef that video I want to see but I heard that the interview was lost please look into it and if you'll find that please upload. Thank you ❤️
This is to all people who say why do we need to learn English when our mother tongue.... and so on... It is always good to absorb other cultures and languages so as to broaden your horizon and reach in this world. Yes, it is not a benchmark for intelligence, but sure is for expression of thought to other worlds. Every person who has mastered this abilty went famous worldwide, be it Ravi Shankar, Satyjit Ray, Mahatma Gandhi, Sadhguru!! You name it. So Kids, learn new things and absorb everything and everyone without any prejudice! 🙏
Thank you so much brother for uploading such precious thing. I respect him a lot, he is my all time idol. A great personality!! I wish somehow I could go back to that time. ❤❤
Satyajit Ray received the Ramon Magsaysay Award long time back and H.H.The Dalai Lama got the same award today. What a coincidence. One of Asia's highest honors, reversing the spirit demonstrated by people and organizations through altruistic and selfless dedication to the people of Asia. Asians who stand out in their profession and have a reputation for voluntarily serving others without seeking public awareness are eligible for the Ramon Magsaysay Award.
A jewel member of a traditional literature family who earned not only lots of awarded with academy award also,the man who'd got the whole concentration in all among film industries over asia by his researchable creations about art,drama,socialise literalism,bassed on documental informations.💛💜 lots of RESPECT.❤❤❤💐💐💐
There must be an extended version to this one. If there is , would you please take care to upload that one as well? Thank you for this stimulating one too.
What is to be noted in particular was his very subtle sense of humour.....but did he choose to take away the credit that deservingly is due to Subrato Mitra - it seemed so
My dear Bengali elite community, I just found out that the name Somnolin pill invented by Satyajit Ray's Professor Shonku is being used by several firms for business, they even put trade mark (TM) on it!!! Metagenics, PromoFarma, Bravacorp. I am furious to see this. All his inventions and discoveries are so unique, Miracurall, Annihilin and many more. Perhaps those were not protected by copyright. But still, isn't it theft and hence against the law? Is there anything we can do to report this shameless act? Where to send our complain to? Please tell me.
That's not how "copyright strike" works in legal terms you see! You have to invent those products to have a exclusive right on those; you can't get rights on your imaginative fictional products or their names. But yes if it's really such thing happening out there,they should had mention the philosophy of nomenclature somewhere; but again how can you teach "Morality 101" to such brute corporates!
Practically any upper class Bengali born under the British Empire would go to study in London and speak like Ray. Google "Bengal Renaissance". The only group in the entire continent of Asia to go through one lol. No wonder they were the first Asians to win the noble prize. Not japan. Not china. Not the turks. Ray is the last of the Bengal Renaissance. Imagine how many Noble Prizes and artists and scientists Bengalis would've produced if the British Empire was still there. Instead the Bengalis are now oppressed and marginalized by the semi educated semi literate hindispeaking majority Long live the empire 😔.
