News India Live, Digital Desk: Suchitra Sen: There are some faces in the history of Indian cinema, which can never be forgotten. One such name is the great actress Suchitra Sen. She was not only known for her unmatched beauty and strong performance, but also for her self -respect and principles. His personality was such that he had shown courage to call Bollywood’s biggest ‘Trezzed King’ Dilip Kumar and ‘Showman’ Raj Kapoor as ‘Na’.
When Dilip Kumar’s refusal to become ‘Paro’
Even today, when Bimal Roy’s classic film ‘Devdas’ is mentioned, Vyjayanthimala’s face comes out as ‘Paro’ with Dilip Kumar. But do you know that Suchitra Sen was the first choice for this character? Yes, the makers wanted Suchitra Sen to become Dilip Kumar’s ‘Paro’. Working with Dilip Kumar at that time was the dream of every actress, but Suchitra Sen rejected this big offer. He is said to have taken this decision due to the problem of dates.
When Raj Kapoor’s ‘showman’ did not like the style
Another famous story ‘Showman’ is associated with Raj Kapoor. Raj Kapoor wanted to do a film with Suchitra Sen. When he went to offer him to offer the film, he sat on his knees near Suchitra Sen’s feet in his well-known dramatic manner and offered him a bouquet of flowers.
Suchitra Sen did not like this style of Raj Kapoor at all. He found it showing and artificial. He did not like such an artist and he refused to do a film without any hesitation.
‘Mahanayika’ of Bengal
After all, where did they dare to refuse Bollywood veterans? The reason was his unmatched stardom in Bengal. Suchitra Sen was the ‘Mahanayika’ of Bengali cinema. His pairing with actor Uttam Kumar is still considered the most successful and prestigious pair of Bengali cinema. She was the first Indian actress to receive the Best Actress Award at the Moscow International Film Festival.
On reaching the pinnacle of success, she said goodbye to the world of glamor and lived a mysterious life for about 36 years. Suchitra Sen was not just an actress, but an example of self -respect and principles, who always lived life on her own terms.
