Samir Chanda, the ace art director, as well as production designer, passed away last Thursday.
His sudden death has left a huge vacuum in Indian films.
Apart from his well-known Bollywood films, he had left his mark in Bangla films too. He was a true Bangali at heart, and breathed life into several films using his eye for details, and aesthetic sensibility.
The Bangla films for which he will be remembered forever are:
Faltu (2005),
Kalpurush (2005),
Ek Nadir Galpo (2008),
Moner Manush (2010),
and
Mukti (2011).
