Dibakar Banerjee to make a film on Ray’s short story

Considered one of the great auteurs of world cinema, Satyajit Ray was a man of many talents. Being the son of the iconic poet Sukumar Ray and grandson of renowned writer Upendrakishore Ray Chowdhury, storytelling was in his genes. Although his detective series, Feluda is still a favourite among children and grown-ups alike, not many are aware that he also wrote short stories. And now another Bengali director is planning to bring Ray's story to silver screen.

Dibaker Banerjee is making a film based on Ray's short story Patol Babu Film Star and the film is tentatively titled Star. It is an emotional story of a father-son relationship. However, the setting has been changed. From being a story about a middle-class Bengali family, it will now be about a Marathi family in Dadar.

Confirming the development, producer of the film Ashi Duha said, "Yes we are adapting Satyajit Ray's short story. Dibakar Banerji has given it a very local Marathi flavour." The film will star Nawazudin Siddique and Sadashiv Amrapurkar in pivotal roles.

The short film will be a part of Bombay Talkies, which a collaborative effort among Karan Johar, Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap and Dibakar Banerjee, to commemorate the completion of 100 years of Indian cinema. The film is scheduled to release on May 3.
