Many of you may be unaware about a superb fact about Uttam Kumar. He was not only an actor, he was a great musician. He loved to sing Rabindra sangeet. Before doing any song in movies, he used to play and sing himself with a harmonium. He was a great harmonium player too. I have posted one song by Uttam Kumar long time back in our music blog. Visit the link to listen to a song by Uttam Kumar Himself. You can listen to the song “Ei Mon Jochonai Ongo Bhijiye, Eso Na Golpo Kori” by Uttam Himself.
Here is the link: http://calcuttaglobalchat.net/calcuttablog/bangla-adhunik/uttam-kumar/


Uttam Kumar is not only the Hero of Kal Tumi Aleya, he is also the “music director” of the film. The films is based on a novel by renowned writer Asutosh Mukherjee and directed by Sachin Mukherjee. This film bring the great triple “Uttam - Supriya- Sabitri” together again. A Nice film for all. And after a long break, another great Uttam Kumar Movie.

Kal Tumi Aleya was presented by Loknath Chitram. I still have not seen the movie myself. So, please add your review!

Cast: Anil Chatterjee, Sabitri Chatterjee, Lalita chatterjee, Geeta dey, Sobha Sen, Mandira Roy, Geeta Pradhan, Kamal Mitra, Kali Banerjee, Pahadi Sanyal, Jahar Roy, Gangapada Basu, .



This movie is not the same “Muktisnan” made by Sudhil Majumdar in 1937! That movie starred some of the names that became famous in later time such as Nripati Chatterjee, Sabitri Debi, Jiben Ganguly and many more. Well this one is a different movie and unfortunately does not have a listing on IMDB (Internet Movie Data Base). This is a late 70s movies directed by Ajit Ganguly who made “Rater Rajanigandha” with Uttam Kumar in 1973. My favorite Anil Chatterjee and Sabitri are omnipresent in this movie and I am sure you would love this one.

So, sit back and play!


Keep adding your replies and review the movie for us please.
