An old video of the cinema legends, Om Puri, Smita Patil and Satyajit Ray has surfaced on the Internet. The video shows the late actors dubbing for ‘Sadgati’ helmed by the late Indian auteur. The film marked India’s state sponsored broadcaster Doordarshan’s first colour outing. All three artists, who rest in their heavenly abodes, have left a deep mark on India’‘s cinematic history.’ The film was based on a short story of the same name by Munshi Premchand. The director can be seen smoking a pipe as the two actors bring their character alive sonically. In the video, the director can also be seen crying while placing the pallu of her saree on her mouth. The clip has been posted on YouTube by Gopi Adusumilli, the editor of SocialNews.XYZ.
