| Meghe Dhaka Tara (2013) Also Known As: Meghey Dhaka Tara, The Cloud-Capped Star Country: India Language: Bengali Year: 2013 Color/BW: BW Category: Feature Film Genre: Biography, Drama
Description Kamaleswar Mukherjee's Meghe Dhaka Tara is inspired in every way possible from the legendary director Ritwik Ghatak's life. From putting together bits and pieces of his eventful life to using the title of one of his most famous movies to naming the characters from his last film Jukti Tokko Goppo, Kamaleswar's movie is an apt tribute to the great director.
Although inspired from Ritwik Ghatak's life, Meghe Dhaka Tara is neither a biopic on Ritwick nor a remake of Ritwik's famous film. To Kamaleswar, Ritwik is a true star, a legend, with immense contributions to the world of cinema. And yet he is still quite the unsung hero. Hence, he is the "meghe dhaka tara".
