Satyajit Ray’s Jana Aranya actor Pradip Mukherjee passes away at age 76

Veteran Bengali actor Pradip Mukherjee passed away on Monday at 8:15 a.m. in a hospital in Kolkata. He was 76. He was transferred to a state-run hospital after his condition worsened three days ago after being taken to a private hospital for a lung infection.

In addition to his wife, Pradip Mukherjee leaves behind a son and a daughter. He had nearly 40 film appearances, including his breakout performance in Satyajit Ray’s Jana Aranya. He played Somnath, the main character, in the movie. His other publications include Mondo Meyer Upakshan (2002) by Buddhadeb Dasgupta and Rituparno Ghosh’s Hirer Angti (1992), among others. Torulatar Bhoot, his most recent release, came in 2021.

Mamata Banerjee, the chief minister of West Bengal, expressed her sadness over Pradip Mukherjee’s passing in a statement on the news of his passing. He had contributed to the films Jana Aranya by Satyajit Ray, Utsav by Rituparno Ghosh, and Dooratwa by Buddhadeb Dasgupta. His passing left a large vacuum.

“Pradip Mukherjee had been discovered by my father in a Bengali stage production and he decided to cast him in Jana Aranya,” filmmaker Sandip Rau, Satyajit Ray’s son, told PTI. He gave a great performance. He truly wished the Ray family well. We suffered a family loss.

In response to the murder case involving Kannada star Darshan, Kichcha Sudeep says: “Will be relieved if the offender faces punishment”

The main focus of media attention has been the Renukaswamy murder case, in which actors Darshan and Pavithra Gowda, a friend of Darshan’s, are the primary defendants. Prominent Kannada actor Kichcha Sudeep called for justice for the victim’s unborn kid and wife as additional horrible details from the murder case came to light.

On Darshan’s arrest in the murder case, Kichcha Sudeep
In a recent interview with the media, Kichcha Sudeep said, “We are not going to the police station to obtain the information, therefore we are just aware of what the media is presenting us. It appears that the police and the media are putting a lot of effort into finding the truth. Undoubtedly, that family is deserving of justice. Justice should be served to that girl. Justice is due to Renukaswamy, who passed needlessly on the streets. The foetus is entitled to justice. Above all, justice should win in this case, and everyone should have faith in it.”

“The Kannada sector requires a clean chit.”
He stated that the murder case has damaged the reputation of the Kannada cinema industry without naming Darshan. “Everyone’s heart goes out to that family,” stated Kichcha Sudeep. There’s something off about the vibe. Justice should be served to the film business. The film business appears to be singled out for blame. The business requires a clean sheet. Numerous artists are participating. A movie is more than just one or two actors. If the offender is brought to justice, the film industry will feel comforted.”

On June 11, Darshan, Pavithra Gowda, and other individuals were taken into custody in relation to the June 8 murder of Renukaswamy, a Chitradurga native. It is said that he was kidnapped, tortured, and killed because he sent obscene messages to Pavithra.
