Satyajit Ray was to Indian cinema what was Pablo Picasso to painting or Audrey Hepburn was to cinematic beauty.
This former art director in an advertising company was man of many talents.
He was a good illustrator, a master story teller and a superb director.
Ray had a vast knowledge about cinema as he was a voracious reader.
Any wonder, right from Pather Panchali to Shatranj Ke Khiladi; he created such a magic.
He promoted so many talented artists, writers like Utpal Dutt, Uttam Kumar, Sharmilla Tagore.
Ray also happens to be the only Indian to receive special Oscar for his contribution to world cinema.
Alas, we don't have another Ray!
