Room for improvement
Thanks for the website on Soumitra Chatterjee. Liked it very much. In the Filmography section ("His Career"), there are areas where things can be improved. Listing them here with a hope that the website on our favorite actor would be even better.
In the filmography section, once we enter a particular year, there is no link to go to the next years (or previous years) films. There should be a previous and a next button/link.
There should be a complete list of all films on the same page, with years mentioned next to the film.
Many of Soumitras films are based on some classic literature, a mention of the writers name wuld be good. Synopsis of the films would be another improvement.
Some errors I noticed, can be corrected. - 1998: Movie name should be "Putrabadhu", not "Putrabandhu". - 1998: Saw a film called "Losalusi", not sure what would be the right title. - 2003: Abar Aranye: Producer name is blank, it would be "Ramesh Gandhi & Sumita Bhattacharya". - 2003: Patalghar: Producer is "Niti Sone Gourisaria".

A sweet memoir
It is simply amazing. Such effort will reflect values to the well wisher round the globe.
Soumitra-da, I am also from your place of origin. I feel to share moments with you sometime in the morning of sundays, while you use to fill fuel for your 4 wheeler at New Alipore.Expect your mobile #, so that I can atleast talk to you & nurture the sweet memories of Krishnanagar. 93398 66776.

It is a laudatory effort. We sincerely hope that the site will be enriched by contributions from Soumitradas admirers who have documents , photos and anecdotes to share.
We would love to have Soumitrada to write occasionally in this Bulletin Board... or have live chats ,at least once a month, with us.
Best wishes and regards.

Soumitra - da
I really admire your personality, and your personal integrity in acting. But going through this website, I find that it is really of poor standard. It doesnt reflect the genius in you. This web company has equated you with a ordinary Tollywood actor, which is a insult on you. You are a genius - not only an actor, you do world class Bengali recitation, and perform Bengali Natok too. But no where it is mentioned in your profile. These IT persons cannot evaluate you, nor assess the potential in you. Disgrace on IT industry of West Bengal.
