A great tribute to legendary filmmaker Satyajit Ray
One interesting anecdote from the piece –
“Satyajit studied
science in college for the first two years—“barely surviving the onslaught of
sines and cosines and the rude facts of physics and chemistry” (My Years With
Apu, published posthumously in 1994). In his third year, following the advice
of his father’s friend P.C. Mahalanobis (yes, he of the Five-Year Plans), he
shifted to economics. He hated that too and could only manage a second-class
honours.”
