Satyajit Ray foi um cineasta indiano que é lembrado por muitos como um dos grandes diretores do cinema do século XX. Nasceu na cidade de Calcutá, numa família bengali proeminente no mundo das artes e letras. Começando sua carreira como artista comercial, Ray foi levado ao mundo do cinema após se encontrar com o cineasta francês Jean Renoir e assistir ao filme neorealista italiano Ladri di biciclette, durante uma visita a Londres.

Um cineasta prolífico e versátil, Ray dirigiu 37 filmes, incluindo filmes, documentários e curtas. O primeiro filme de Ray, Pather Panchali, ganhou 11 prêmios internacionais, incluindo "Melhor documentário humano" no Festival de Cannes. Junto de Aparajito e Apur Sansar, o filme forma a "trilogia Apu", vista por muitos como o magnum opus de Ray. Ele trabalhou extensivamente em diversas funções, incluindo roteiro, elenco, trilha sonora, fotografia, direção de arte, edição e confecção de seu próprio material publicitário. Além de fazer filmes, ele foi um autor de ficções, editor, ilustrador, designer gráfico e crítico de cinema. Ray recebeu muitos prêmios importantes em sua carreira, incluindo 32 prêmios nacionais de filmes da Índia, uma série de prêmios no Festival Internacional de Cinema e um Óscar em reconhecimento ao seu trabalho em 1992.

In Quotations by 60 Greatest Indians, Dhirubhai Ambani Institute of Information and Communication Technology http://resourcecentre.daiict.ac.in/eresources/iresources/quotations.html,

“I never imagined that any of my films, especially Pather Panchali, would be seen throughout this country or in other countries. The fact that they have is an indication that, if you're able to portray universal feelings, universal relations, emotions, and characters, you can cross certain barriers and reach out to others, even non-Bengalis.”

“But after having worked with Manikda, working in Bombay was confusing. I was too normal and realistic in front of the camera — the way Manikda had always taught me. But the Bombay directors wanted more energetic and louder acting. But today, most actors act that way.”

After working with Satyajit Ray, working in Bombay was confusing: Sharmila Tagore

“Manikda was always different from the others. He did everything — from writing the script to choosing the location, finalizing the cast to designing sets and costumes, supervising make-up to framing the shots to editing. He was involved with each and every part of his film and was always very clear about what he wanted. His films were Indian but the production process was western. He also proved that silence can say a million words if used properly and was very economical with dialogues. He used barking of dogs, birdcalls, mechanical clatter or other natural sounds to brilliant effect. It was because of this detailing that every scene of his films became powerful and meaningful. And though he played so many roles behind the scenes, he accepted remuneration from the producer only for direction.”
