Encyclopedic overview
Suchitra Sen ( Bengali: [ʃuˈt͡ʃitːra ˈʃen] ; born Roma Dasgupta, Bengali: [ˈrɔma ˈdaʃɡupto] ; April 6, 1931 – January 17, 2014), widely known as the Mahanayika (lit. 'Great actress'), was an Indian actress who worked in Bengali and Hindi cinema. The movies in which she was paired opposite actor Uttam Kumar became classics in the history of Bengali cinema.
Sen was the first Indian actress to receive an award at an international film festival when, at the 1963 Moscow International Film Festival, she won the Silver Prize for Best Actress for Saat Pake Bandha. She was catapulted to stardom after she was cast as Vishnupriya by Devaki Kumar Bose in his Bhagaban Shree Krishna Chaitanya (1953).
