The Hero
Directed by Satyajit Ray
Produced by R.D. Bansal & Co.
A contemplative character study of a celebrated actor's vulnerability, unfolding through intimate conversation with a journalist on a train journey.
Arindam, a matinee idol, is going by train to collect an acting award. On the train, he is confronted by Aditi, a journalist who somewhat unwillingly starts to take his interview. Arindam, won over by Aditi's naivete, starts to disclose his past, his fears and his secrets.
