memories of ray#21_chidananda dasgupta_’ i never saw him again…it was a very tragic kind of end to our friendship ‘. Chidananda remembers with great sorrow the ending of his long established friendship with Ray, due to a very harsh review he wrote about Ray’s last film…At the time of the interview in 1999, 10 years after it happened, Chidananda was still feeling bad and guilty about this review….He told us: ‘I forever will regret it, everyday of my life…I said things i should not have said…Ray said nasty things on me after that, which i don’t hold against him…I think i deserved it…’ ( recorded in Santiniketan in 1999 )
