Description | This is a handwritten field notes diary ('Kheror Khata') or Shooting Script, which contains several sketches, musical notation and casting of Satyajit Ray's film 'Sonar Kella' (International release title 'The Fortress'), based on the novel 'Sonar Kella' by Satyajit Ray. |
Abstract | 'Sonar Kella' (The Golden Fortress) is an adventure-mystery based on Ray's own novel of the same name, from Feluda series. The film revolves around a young boy, Mukul, who is targeted by crooks, once news spreads that he remembers his past life and hallucinates about a treasure trove in Jaisalmer's fortress. Mukul's father, fearing for the boy's life, hires the famous sleuth Prodosh Mitra and his cousin Topshe to join parapsychologist Dr. Hajra and Mukul in Rajasthan to unravel the truth behind Mukul's claims. Ray's is a master storyteller and hence, the suspense ramps up from the first scene and never ebbs in the entire course of the film. Sonar Kella has won multiple awards and went on to become one of Ray's most commercially successful films. In this shooting script, Ray has noted the nitty-gritty of the film. He has jotted the costumes and props for the central characters. For instance, he mentions there will be a “special red VIP type” suitcase for Lalmohan Ganguly. He has also designed some character outfits for the film. Besides this, there is a gamut of research and field notes pertaining to the film. |
