At the outset I would like to inform readers that my sister Shilpi Bose who authored this blog passed away on September 9, 2021. This was a personal blow to me, I did not expect it, it happened so suddenly. When she was alive we had discussed the possibility of us going to Nagpur and visiting St. John’s School where our father (late Shri Tarun Bose) studied and also St. Francis De Sales’ College, it was in aid of this college that a play was staged in the year 1956 in which our father acted, this paved the way for our father to join the Hindi film industry in Bombay. The renowned film director Bimal Roy was the chief guest at this play, he liked young Tarun’s acting so much that he made him an offer to join Hindi film industry. My sister Shilpi has mentioned all the details in this blog.

Extremely sorry about your loss. Happened to watch the beautiful movie Anupama today and your dad, the legendary Tarun Bose was the scene stealer there.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sourabh for your kind words. My father was a great actor and also a very good person. I would also describe him as a very affectionate parent.
ReplyDeleteI missed this when it was posted, and saw it only today. That was beautiful - not just because of your father's associations with the school and the college, but also because I got to see that brief glimpse of Shilpi. That really brought tears to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this, Aroop.
I am sorry, but I don't understand your language.
