Soumitra soon transcended the boundaries of the Bengali film industry to become an internationally celebrated actor who was compared to the best in the business, from Max von Sydow to Marcello Mastroianni. Famously known as ‘Ray’s actor’, in a career spanning six decades, Soumitra worked with practically every Bengali director worth the name— Mrinal Sen, Tapan Sinha, Chidananda Dasgupta, Aparna Sen, Tarun Majumdar, Rituparno Ghosh and Goutam Ghose, to name but a few.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Perpetua Std&quot;, serif; color: black;"><u></u><u></u></span></p><div><p style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><i><span style="color: rgb(34, 30, 31);">Soumitra Chatterjee: His Life in Cinema and Beyond</span></i><span style="color: rgb(34, 30, 31);">, is the first comprehensive attempt to portray the life of the actor in all its facets. It traces Soumitra’s initial years of searching for identities to the final decades when he reached the pinnacle of his career as an actor and an artist. Written from the vantage point of someone who shared an exceptionally close relationship with the actor, film journalist Amitava Nag has drawn an intimate portrait of the star thespian and his art beyond acting, which will be essential reading for his legion of fans, and for all those interested in cinema.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &quot;Perpetua Std&quot;, serif; color: black;"><u></u><u></u></span></p></div><div><span style="color: rgb(34, 30, 31);"><br></span></div>
