Rajya Sabha Debates RAJYA SABHA Monday, the 31st December, 2018/10th Pausha, 1940 (Saka) The House met at eleven of the clock, MR. CHAIRMAN in the Chair. OBITUARY REFERENCE MR. CHAIRMAN: Hon. Members, I refer with profound sorrow to the passing away of Shri Mrinal Sen, a former Member of this House, on the 30th December, 2018, at the age of 95 years. Born in May, 1923 at Kolkata, West Bengal, Shri Sen was educated at the Scottish Church College, Kolkata. A filmmaker, Shri Sen initially started writing on the aesthetics of cinema, its philosophy, its socio-political relevance and on the possibility of building a new cinema. He made feature films in Bengali, Hindi, Odia and Telugu. He also has several documentaries to his credit. He heralded the 'New Cinema Movement' of 1970 with his film 'Bhuvan Shome', which won the National Film Award for the best feature film in 1969. Some of his notable movies were 'Chorus', 'Mrigayaa', 'Akaler Sandhane', 'Akash Kusum', 'Khandhar' and 'Kharij'. His cinema was known for its artistic and sensitive depiction of social reality and its vivid portrayal of the large scale political unrest in the country at that time. Shri Sen served as the Chairman of the Film and Television Institute of India, Pune, the Indian People's Human Right Commission and the International Federation of Film Societies, London/Berne. Shri Sen was the recipient of several awards, both in India and abroad. He won the 'Swarna Kamal', the National Film Award for best feature film, four times and the 'Rajat Kamal' for the best film in various categories many times. He was also honoured with the 'Padma Bhushan' in 1981 and the 'Dada Saheb Phalke Award' in 2005. Shri Mrinal Sen was a Nominated Member of this House from August, 1997 to August, 2003. In the passing away of Shri Mrinal Sen, the country has lost a legendary filmmaker, a proponent of parallel cinema and a distinguished parliamentarian. 2 Papers laid on [RAJYA SABHA] the Table We deeply mourn the passing away of Shri Mrinal Sen. I request Members to rise in their places and observe silence as a mark of respect to the memory of the departed. (Hon. Members then stood in silence for one minute) MR.

Mahajan’s camera unfolded and flowed past on the screen, and the grave tones of Mallika’s monologue communicated not only her deep pain and the emptiness of her life, but a weighing down of the self,1 a sense of the excitement that in the 1970s had been associated with a new cinematic practice communicated itself very strongly to some in the auditorium.

(The repetition of âœEk Dinâ in their respective Bengali titles, meaning âœone day,â augtments this sense of bookended symmetry.) In The Case Is Closed, a servant boyâ™s choice to move from his assigned sleeping space under the stairs into the kitchen for one night of warmth proves fatal, precipitating a moral crisis for his oblivious masters. Perhaps imposing order retroactively, Sen pronounced that three of his ambiguous, calculatedly inconclusive family dramasâ”And Quiet Rolls the Day, The Ruins, and Suddenly One Dayâ”comprise âœthe absence trilogy.â â˜Ek Din Pratidinâ™ (And Quiet Rolls the Dawn) (1979) undeniably establishes Senâ™s feminist credentials. The movie is a haunting tale of deep-rooted patriarchy ingrained in the Indian value system and questions the ethical standings of the viewers. â˜Ek Din Pratidinâ™ violently shakes traditional morality and compels people to think beyond the confines of their respective comfort zones. Some of his later ventures include such masterpieces as â˜Ek Din Achanakâ™ (Suddenly, One Day) (1989), â˜Mahaprithiviâ™ (World Within, World Without) (1991) and â˜Antareenâ™ (The Confined) (1993).

Title: Audible absence: searching for the site in sound production Issue Date: 2017-03-09 Part II: Articles The following 6 articles are published in this dissertation in their original form (i.e. as they were published, accepted or submitted in peer-reviewed journals). I have chosen to insert short postscripts or comments on the first page of each article and besides added some comments here and there inside the articles on the basis of new insights gained throughout my research process, serving as clarification or to critically comment on them and connect them to each other as well as to the topics discussed in the Introduction and Conclusion. These blue and green-colored postscripts establish the context in which the articles can be considered part of the main body of research for this dissertation. 45 46 Article 1: Chattopadhyay, Budhaditya (2017). “The World Within the Home: Tracing the Sound in Satyajit Ray’s Films.” Music, Sound, and the Moving Image Autumn issue (Accepted). This article deals with the first historical phase of sound production in India, as explained in the Introduction, namely: analogue recording, synchronized sound, and monaural mixing (1931– 1950s). Satyajit Ray emerged during this period and made full use of these techniques; hence, his work with sound is used as a benchmark here when studying this specific period of sound production. The article examines the use of ambient sound in the early years of film sound production, highlighting two differing attitudes, the first markedly vococentric and music-oriented, the second applying a more direct sound aesthetics to create a mode of realism.

Und doch geht es weiter. Von Jahr zu Jahr wird der Anblick schmerzlicher, der Schmutz schmutziger, die Armut militanter, die Verzweiflung verzweifelter. Jedesmal, wenn ich nach Kalkutta zurückkehre, habe ich den Eindruck einer einschüchternden, höllischen Stadt. Unerlösbar, wahrscheinlich zum Untergang verurteilt" Dieses Zitat von James Cameron bildet den Epilog zu Mrinal Sens Kalkutta-Episode. "Es ist kein Dokumentarfilm. Ich versuche nicht, Lösungen zu finden. Es geht mir nicht darum, wie alt Kalkutta ist, oder wer es gegründet hat. Es ist ein Porträt im Sinne von 'Ich und meine Stadt'", sagt Sen nach Abschluß der Drehar­ beiten. Was er in seinem kaleidoskopischen Beitrag aufspürt, ist die Widersprüchlichkeit der Stadt, die Koexistenz der wider­ sprüchlichsten Emotionen. Unvorhersagbarkeit, Gefühllosigkeit, Heftigkeit der Gefühle, Grausamkeit, Zartheit. Eine Intensität, die vielleicht hilft, den unausweichlich scheinenden Untergang zu verhindern.
