The ultimate protagonist of Indian Film history a prodigal visionary yet a creative genius at any scale in film media Shri Ritwik Ghatak was born on this day in the year 1925.

When ever history of Indian Cinema will be written Ghatak’s works will be there and the fact will remain that he was born ahead of his time.

CM Mamata Banerjee,Actor Prosenjit Chatterjee and all other paid tribute to the master film maker.

Ritwik Ghatak (Bengali: ঋত্বিক কুমার ঘটক, Ritbik Kumar Ghôţôk, About this sound listen (help·info); 4 November 1925 – 6 February 1976) was a Bengali filmmaker and script writer. Along with prominent contemporary Bengali filmmakers Satyajit Ray and Mrinal Sen, his cinema is primarily remembered for its meticulous depiction of social reality.

Although their roles were often adversarial, they were ardent admirers of each other’s work and, in doing so, the three directors charted the independent trajectory of parallel cinema, as a counterpoint to the mainstream fare of Hindi cinema in India. Ghatak received many awards in his career, including National Film Award’s Rajat Kamal Award for Best Story in 1974 for his Jukti Takko Aar Gappo and Best Director’s Award from Bangladesh Cine Journalist’s Association for Titash Ekti Nadir Naam. The Government of India honoured him with the Padma Shri for Arts in 1970.
