| Description | This is a handwritten field notes diary ('Kheror Khata') or Shooting Script of Ray's film 'Devi' (International release title 'The Goddess'), based on the short story by Prabhat Kumar Mukherjee. It also contains several sketches related to the film. |
| Abstract | 'Devi' (The Goddess) tells the story of Umaprasad (Soumitra Chattopadhyay) who has been happily married with his seventeen year-old wife Doyamoyee (Sharmila Tagore) for three years. They live in the house of Umaprasad´s father Kalikinkar Roy (Chhabi Biswas), who worships the goddess Kali. Umaprasad goes to Kolkata to teach in college and learn English, and Doyamoyi stays at home to take care of his father-in-law. One day, Kalikinkar has a dream that Doyamoyee is the reincarnation of Kali and soon after, the locals come to Kalikinkar´s house to worship her. Doyamoyee’s sister-in-law Harasundari writes to Umaprasad and soon he returns home. But Doyamoyee has been brainwashed with the situation and begins to believe that she might be the reincarnation of Kali leading the family to a tragedy. This manuscript has Ray’s entire body of research on Devi. Ray has also done the interior sketches of Umaprasad’s house and drawn out the lists of props. It is a true treasure trove for all film lovers. |
