Satyajit Ray Birth Anniversary 2024: Veteran actress Sharmila Tagore, who began her career with Satyajit Ray`s 1959 Bengali film `Apur Sansar` (The World of Apu) at the age of a mere 13, recalled that the late legendary filmmaker never made child artistes memorise dialogues. Satyajit Ray was born on May 2, 1921. Sharmila was at The Nehru Memorial Museum Library for the inauguration of Revisting Ray, a conference and exhibition on the filmmaker, in 2018 when she shared these precious memories.
"I started working at 13 and he never over-instructed us. I was given the script but (was) never made to memorise the dialogues. He would come very close to you in your ear and whisper to you what you have to do and in no time, we were in awe of him. we were never nervous with him," said the actress. "He would give very clear instructions. It was very easy to follow him. He would never treat a child like a child," she added.
