Ray On Ray: A Son Remembers

Satyajit Ray has been the subject of many books. However, hardly any have carried the ‘voice’ of Sandip Ray, talking as extensively on his illustrious father. This is what sets Ray on Ray: A Son Remembers apart. In intimate conversations with Sandip Ray, the author talks about the various aspects of the life and films of Satyajit Ray. These range from the rebirth of Sandesh and the birth of Professor Shanku and Feluda, to Ray’s penchant for wordplay and nonsense rhymes, his passion for acrostics, Categories, Scrabble and Boggle, his relationships with actors and directors, and his experiments with Indian and Western classical and fusion music. Ray on Ray is as much a son’s tribute to his father, a poignant look at an incredible father–son relationship as it is the author’s ode to an icon.
