One thought on “Ray’s Films in Posters

  1. (This is the text I wanted to give before the posters…)

    I grew up in a godless household. My father had his sombre Physics books and my mother had her ”Gurudev” (his collected works and a marble bust of the bearded sage), while we sisters were left to find our own gods. Didi was inspired by Nataraj from a very early age, while I found myself slowly awakening to a very different god: he was tall brown handsome, wrote with crystal clarity, spoke eloquently, composed songs and elegant fusion music, but most importantly, created unforgettable moving images. I have been his devotee for more than three decades, though my predominant emotion has changed several times – from absolute awe to deep admiration to a kind of fondness. He, for me, is the ultimate artist – hence my god – who created his own universe and lived happily in it. Like all devotees, I have easy access to it; and like all gods, he remains a permanent frame of reference.
    Remembering him today through posters….
