Satyajit Ray: Through the Lens of The Man Behind The Maestro
TL;DR · WeSearch summary

Photo: Nemai Ghosh, Courtesy of DAG.\r\nThough many of Ghosh’s Ray photos have been displayed before, this exhibition presents a series of carefully restored colour photographs, divided into two broad categories. Here he is, consulting the rough-bound notebook—or the kheror khata—that he maintained for each film, full of his storyboards, scribbled ideas and stated intentions for each scene. In another photo he is painting, with his own hand, the opening title of Joi Baba Felunath on a Varanasi ghat—a reminder that he wanted to be involved in every aspect of his cinema, even making the promotional posters and booklets.
