Ghare By Ray

Satyajit Ray spent Sunday mornings in a leisurely manner at his own home in Kolkata's Bishop Lefroy Road with friends and other visitors. Kamu Mukherjee who acted in a number of Ray films, was a common and popular face in the holiday crowd. Ray had a special liking for Mukherjee because the latter often gave free rein to his wit and sense of humour. One day Mukherjee said to Ray, “Manikda, your name is hidden in the title of one of your films.” Ray felt curious. Mukherjee then declared the name of the film: Ghare By Ray (Ghare Baire -The Home and the World).
