Today is the birthday anniversary of the iconic movie director, composer, writer, painter Satyajit Ray. This versatile genius was born 100 years ago and he had changed the language of our cinema . His pather panchali( the song of the road) showed us that there is no difference between literature and cinema, rather both can go together. He is very relevant today, as we watch Ganashatru and think about that doctor on the screen and remember today's doctors also shout and warn us against the upsurge of the pandemic when we are oblivious of that deadly disease. His Aguntuk teaches us to be humane and Ashanisanket shows us how humanity suffers during natural disasters. Satyajit Ray's short stories are the gems of Bengali literature. He is equally successful as a music director. Though, at the inception Ray depended on another legend Pt. Rabishankar for his pother panchali ,later he emerged as a music director for his movies. He chose Kishore Kumar for his Ghorebaire and charulata and till date those songs are praised. He also chose ustad salamat Ali khan for his Jalsaghor that demanded a good classical voice. The title music that Ray had created for sonar kella has become immensely popular as his fictitious detective character Feluda.
