Summary:
A graceful meditation on art, fame, and regret from one of world cinema's most keenly perceptive filmmakers, Satyajit Ray's psychologically rich character study stars real-world celebrity Uttam Kumar as a matinee idol on the brink of his first flop. When he boards an overnight train to Delhi to accept an award, a journalist (Sharmila Tagore) approaches him seeking an exclusive interview, which initiates a conversation that sends the actor reeling down a path of self-examination
