On a journey to the Kumbh Mela, author Samaresh Bose meets...
Samaresh Bose, regarded undisputedly as one of the greatest Bengali writers of all time, was born in 1924 in Dhaka and spent his adolescent years in Naihati undergoing varied work experiences, ranging from hawking eggs on the streets to acting as a foreman in the Ichhapore ordnance factory. He wrote his first novel at the age of 21 and soon emerged as a major writer on the Bengali literary scene. His stories have been made into award-winning films. He has been a recipient of the Sahitya Akademi Award (1980).
