3 RAYS :STORIE FROM SATYAJIT RAY
Description
I have noticed one very striking factor in [Ray's] literary works there are some characters who possess tremendous mental or physical strength but at the same time show an almost childlike innocence. Say, for example, the Tellus. It has an innocent attitude in its desire to play with a child. And then there is the alien Pink Man or the robot Bidhusekhar-they also have the same traits.... Also, most of [his] protagonists. especially in the short stories, belong to the lower middle-class: they perform clerical or petty jobs. They are essentially loners, but they have a world of their own imagination APARNA SEN, FILM-MAKER AND ACTOR
