Aug 21, 2022 · By Chris Heckmann on August 21, 2022. Satyajit Ray is regarded as not only one of the greatest filmmakers in Indian cinema, but as one of the greatest filmmakers in cinema history.

- The Apu Trilogy (Pather Panchali, Aparajito & Apur Sansar) (Song of the Little Road, The Unvanquished & The World of Apu) (1955, 1956 & 1959) There is a reason why we at The Cinemaholic decided to mention the entire trilogy instead of the singular piece ‘Pather Panchali’.
