Details: Siddhartha Chatterjee had not yet encountered the works of Satyajit Ray or delved into the adventures of Feluda. Then, one auspicious day, Ray approached him with the proposition to portray 'Topshe'—the beloved cousin and steadfast companion of the iconic sleuth, Feluda. Caught entirely off-guard, Siddhartha found himself yearning to evade the moment. What followed became a radiant chapter in the annals of his life. Embodying the role of Tapesh Ranjan Mitter, Siddhartha Chatterjee underwent a profound metamorphosis. In the eyes of Ray and countless cinephiles, he became the definitive Topshe. Ray's influence during those formative years left an indelible mark on Siddhartha's life, permeating every facet of his being. From his ventures in the stock market to his endeavors as a celebrated restaurateur and captivating public speaker, echoes of Satyajit Ray resonate throughout Siddhartha's diverse pursuits. His inaugural memoir, 'Feludar Prothom Topshe', serves as a poignant recollection of the enchanting moments spent filming "Joy Baba Felunath" and "Sonar Kella," interwoven with the transformative impact of Ray's mentorship and his enduring camaraderie with Sandip Ray. With a heartfelt foreword penned by Sandip Ray, who aptly characterizes the book as a 'time capsule,' and generously includes a trove of rare photographs, this literary offering becomes a must-read for admirers of Satyajit Ray.
