+== Jahar Ganguly (1904-69) ==
+
+Actor born in 24 Parganas Dist., Bengal. Major
+stage actor, dancer and singer in Calcutta
+Theatres, e.g. as Fatikchand in Poshyaputra
+(1932) and as Bhola Moira in Anthony Kabial
+in the late 60s. Broke through in film with
+Premankur Atorthy’s Dena Paona. Cast in
+almost 1/3 of Bengali films in 40s and 50s as a
+character actor in comedy counterparts to the
+dramatic lead. A crucial mediator between the
+Calcutta Theatres style and popular cinema
+(e.g. his Jyotish Bannerjee and Naresh Mitra
+films). Best-remembered lead role as Manas
+opposite Kanan Devi’s Niharika in
+Manmoyee Girls’ School, a part reprised
+from his 1932 Art Theatres production. Also
+major role in Shahar Theke Dooray, and
+remarkable cameos in Satyajit Ray’s Parash
+Pathar and Chidiakhana. Continued as
+stage actor until the 60s.
