Soumitra Chatterjee in his career of over fifty years, was one of the busiest artistes, among those who came into the limelight in India. He was an actor, a director, a playwright, a writer and a poet.
Acting was his foremost passion. He was to Satyajit Ray what renowned actor Toshiro Mifune was to Akira Kurosawa and Marcello Mastroianni was to Federico Fellini. Soumitra acted in fourteen of Ray s films, and Ray had high expectations from him.
In Apur Sansar , Soumitra played a young man who loved literature. He gave a candid performance in the film. In Charulata , he was the devoted lover, and in Abhijan he played a strong-headed taxi driver.
