What have been other influences on your work?
Ray: Bibhuti Bhushan [the author of The Apu Trilogy] influenced me very much. In fact, I knew about village life by reading Pather Panchali. I felt a rapport with him, with the village and his attitude towards it, which is one of the reasons why I wanted to make Pather Panchali in the first place. I was deeply moved by the book.
Satyajit Ray became the first Indian to receive an Honorary Academy Award in 1992.
I have also been moved by Tagore s work, which is not necessarily rural. Of course, our cultural background, our cultural makeup, is a fusion of East and West. This applies to anybody who has been educated in the city in India and who has been exposed to the classics of English literature. After all, our knowledge of the West is deeper than the Westerner s knowledge of our country. We have imbibed Western education. Western music, Western art, Western literature have all been very influential in India.
