Cinemaazi remembers Satyajit Ray on his birth anniversary
2 May 2021
Indian cinema is often thought to have two moments of genesis in its history. The first is considered to be Dadasaheb Phalke’s Raja Harishchandra (1913), the first Indian feature film to be made. The second is often stated to be the moment of ‘rebirth’, when the world woke up to the brilliance of Indian cinema through Satyajit Ray’s Pather Panchali (1955).
