He was a camera operator, screenplay writer , costume designers, Cinematographer, made background score, wrote credits on papers so on and so forth . This is what makes him a legend and a pioneer in filmmaking. When India's experience with film making was at its infancy, Ray took the helm of filmmaking, experimenting with new ideas, and technology.

He never really saw India or West Bengal as his homeland, as his family was originally from Mymensingh, Bangladesh He used to maintain close connections with Bangladeshi Freedom Fighters and used to even provide refugee to them.

In one of many strange and wonderful experiences there, on one of my first evenings there (in Mumbai), I went to a random showing at a film festival with a friend who was travelling with me, without any clue as to what we were about to see. To my surprise, we ended up watching a film - in French and set in Montréal (a two-hour drive from home)! It's about time I got to know a bit more about India's rich film history...

@@jagobangalijago5665 THIS IS NUMBER 1 BULLSHEET. Satyajit Ray was the son of Sukumar Ray and Suprabha Ray in Calcutta (now Kolkata). Sukumar died when Satyajit was barely three, and the family survived on Suprabha's meagre income. Ray studied at Ballygunge Government High School in Calcutta, and completed his BA in economics at Presidency College, Calcutta (then affiliated with the University of Calcutta). In 1940, his mother insisted that he study at Visva-Bharati University in Santiniketan, founded by Rabindranath Tagore. Ray was reluctant to go, due to his fondness for Calcutta but his mother's persuasiveness and his respect for Tagore finally convinced him to try. He was born, raised and died in Calcutta. So, how can you say he was a Bangladeshi? Making a fool of yourself chump

Thank you for this, it was beautifully made. Ray’s longtime cinematographer who died last year, Soumendu Roy, was my mum’s maternal uncle, so I grew up with the cinema of Ray and in fact remember as a little boy, being together as a family watching Audrey Hepburn giving that Oscar you feature at the end to him in 1992. Ray comes from quite a dynasty of polymaths and geniuses, I still read his father’s books to my children. In India his impact on cinema simply cannot be overstated. For years I had a poster of him on my wall, and recently got a framed print of several of his iconic posters for my youtube back wall :)

This is in itself a tremendous source of inspiration and motivation for any budding filmmaker out here to try and explore his own ideas and how to face the many obstacles in the process of finally realizing their goals. Thank you StudioBinder for compiling all of this into a much needed video about the master's way of working and his works.

I would call him most struggling filmmaker at his early career times while he had so many obstacles such as financial problems and lack of many co working artist. But still he didnt gave up because of his dedication and love for the cinema 📽️ He proved that passion is more important than money. I would highly recommend "The Apu Trilogy" his delicate masterworks to watch.

Although it's difficult to fully quantify the impact he had on India's art scenes, culture, and societies, it's safe to say that his contributions were significant. He embodied the essence of a true artist, with a diverse range of talents that extended beyond just film. In addition to being a great filmmaker, he was also a talented composer and painter, and his literary works have gained him a substantial following in Bengal due to their remarkable quality.

Being a bengali, its a ritual that you should watch Satyajit Ray when you are growing up. The thing is his movies are so timeless, that you can just put on the movie and be absolutely captivated everytime.

Brilliant. Thank you for this very important video for such an important and visionary filmmaker. With the wealth of resources of Mr. Ray speaking about his process, it was an excellent choice to allow Mr. Ray to speak on his behalf, with no explanation from Studio Binder. I know you have done this before with other great directors, but somehow this one feels far more precious and prescient.

Definately felt very proud while watching this since I am also a bangali and a resident of indian subcontinent. There is rarely any person like him in today's indian film with so much talent. He is not only a great director but also he written many masterpiece novels. But this is a shame that he is still underrated in india (outside bengal).No doubt he is the finest indian filmmaker of all time "Not to have seen the cinema of Ray means existing in the world without seeing the sun or the moon."-Akira Kurosowa Also StudioBinder ,thanks for making this video

Fun fact, Steven Spielberg E.T extra terrestrial movie was originally the work of satyajit ray. It was supposed to be a movie in the 1960s but production issues lead to cancellation of this movie. But the thing is, Steven didn't asked satyajit about this story, and satyajit was completely shocked when this movie was released.

The film he wanted to make was loosely based on a short story he wrote named 'Bonkubabur Bondhu'. But the story of E.T is completely different from that of the short story i mentioned. Spielberg's film is a masterpiece in its own way and it is one of the milestone movies in that genre. But it is needless to say that if Ray was given support from the columbia pictures at that time , he would have made an unforgettable movie too.

I admit I know almost nothing about Satyajit Ray, and I’m an Indian. This video gave me goosebumps! I’m astonished by how he thought of cinema and how he approached filmmaking. He was clearly a genius! I need to learn more about him and watch his movies and read his works. Props also to his actors: how extraordinarily eloquent they are, in English no less which isn’t the primary language for most of them.
