About Author

Sisir Kumar Bhaduri was his close friend and he wrote a series of articles on Sisir Bhaduri, the doyen of Bengali theatre, which got published in the early fifties in Dainik Basumati.
He also drafted few scholarly articles on Rabindranath Tagore which later, prompted the Tagore Research Institute to publish an expanded version of the same commemorating his contribution in Bengali literary scenario. Till date, his books on Bengali theatre are highly appreciated and are included as reference books in the syllabus of Master’s degree in Bengali by both Calcutta University and Rabindra Bharati University.
