+'''Dinen Gupta''', (b. 1932)
+
+
+Bengali director and cameraman born in
+Calcutta into a family in the film business.
+Member of the 50s generation of Calcutta
+cineastes (Ghatak, Sen et al.) influenced by
+the IPTA, the Calcutta Film Society (Est: 1941)
+and Italian neo-realism (screened in India at
+the International Film Festival in 1952). Early
+work as assistant to cameraman Ramananda
+Sengupta: shot some of Ghatak’s early films
+(e.g. Ajantrik, 1957; Bari Theke Paliye, 1959),
+Tarafdar’s Ganga (1960) and Harisadhan
+Dasgupta’s work. Directorial début with
+Natun Pata locates him, somewhat belatedly,
+in the post-Pather Panchali (1955) tradition
+of rustic lyricism. Pratham Pratisruti was based
+on Ashapurna Devi’s famous novel. Ajker
+Nayak belonged to the ‘ lumpen rebel’ genre
+that emerged in 70s Bengali cinema after the
+Naxalite uprising, but it stuck closer to e.g.
+Sinha’s version of events rather than the
+better-known M. Sen iconography. Later made
+some comic melodramas (e.g. Basanta Bilap,
+Raag Anuraag, etc.). Shoots his own films as
+well as those of other film-makers.
