“I hate selfies ~ Soumitra Chatterjee”

This was the first dialogue I listen from Soumitra Chatterjee during the Book release of Dr. Saroj Gupta at Nandan. Well he was telling this to one of my journalist friend from Kolkata press. What a personality on screen and off the stage. But I was lucky enough to got a frame with him and that will be one of the best treasure for my life.

Apur Sansar to Bela Seshe , Feluda to Tiktiki what ever he touched has pernitrate to heart of Bengali Film lovers. Legend Satyajit Ray most of the cases trusted him as his best face to bring out the character.

A loss which will never be fulfilled again in the cultural aura of Indian arena.

We miss you Sir. God bless you.
