An iconic filmmaker and inheritor of the legendary Satyajit Ray's
legacy, Rituparno Ghosh was one of the finest auteurs to emerge out
of contemporary Bengal. His films, though rooted firmly in
middle-class values, desires and aspirations, are highly critical
of hetero-patriarchal power structures. From the very outset, Ghosh
displayed a strong feminist sensibility which later evolved into
radical queer politics. This volume analyses his films, his craft,
his stardom and his contribution to sexual identity politics. In
this first scholarly study undertaken on Rituparno Ghosh, the
essays discuss the cultural import of his work within the dynamics
of a rapidly evolving film industry in Bengal and more largely the
cinematic landscape of India. The anthology also contains a
conversation section (interviews with the filmmaker and with
industry cast and crew) drawing a critical and personal portrait of
this remarkable filmmaker.
