The 1955 film, Pather Panchali (Song of the Little Road), was the first in the critically acclaimed Apu trilogy.
Then I heard that the movie had drawn the ire of certain segments of the NRI community in the States, which reminded me of the Bollywood brouhaha over the memorable Pather Panchali by Satyajit Ray half a century ago.
The Apu Trilogy Pather Panchali, Aparajito, The World of Apu (Satyajit Ray, 1955-59) Made far from Bombay in every sense, the greatest work of Indian cinema traces the life of Apu from his impoverished childhood in early-20th-century Bengal, through his coming of age in the slums of Benares, to his tragic arranged marriage in Calcutta.
