Ray 100: Satyajit Ray on his grandfather Upendrakishore Ray Chowdhury, whom he never saw
May 2, 2021 is Satyajit Ray’s 100th birth anniversary. 3 hours ago Satyajit Ray s drawings of his grandfather Upendrakishore Ray Chowdhury and of the family house in Garpar, Calcutta.

The house which he had built on 100 Garpar Road and the same house where he died was also the house where I was born. My childhood was spent in this house and quite a bit of my growing up years were occupied in one particular portion of the building, within which was housed the U Ray & Sons printing press.
