Subir Banerjee
Subir Banerjee is an Indian actor who played Apu in Satyajit Ray's Bengali film ''Pather Panchali'' (''Song of the Little Road'', 1955), the first installment of ''The Apu Trilogy''.
==Pather Panchali: 1952 - 1954==
During the pre-production of ''Pather Panchali'', Satyajit Ray advertised in newspapers seeking boys between five and seven years of age for the role of Apu.〔 Several boys arrived for audition, but none of them met the expectation of the director. Finally, Ray's wife Bijoya Ray spotted a boy playing on the roof of a neighbouring building of their apartment. This boy, Subir Banerjee, was eventually cast for the role of Apu.〔 Banerjee stayed at Lake Avenue in Kolkata, and later recounted his father's reluctance in allowing him take up the role. That is when Ray said, "Today, no one knows your son or me. But I'll make a film that will change Bengali cinema. Then, all of Bengal will know both of us." This convinced his father, thereafter the shooting continued from 1952 to 1954, with a year's break in between.
Andrew Robinson, in his book ''Satyajit Ray: The Inner Eye'', describes that at the beginning of the shooting of ''Pather Panchali'' in 1952, Subir Banerjee was a "decidedly unresponsive actor". The first scene that the crew shot was a scene involving Apu and his elder sister Durga, played by another young actor Uma Dasgupta, walking through a field of ''kash'' (''Saccharum spontaneum'') and catching a glimpse of a train. The scene required that Apu walk haltingly, looking for his sister, who had gone ahead. However, Banerjee, without any acting experience, could not enact the halting walk. So the crew had to improvise and place small obstacles in Banerjee's path; also some crew members hid in different parts of the ''kash'' field and called Banerjee at pre-arranged times so that Banerjee looks in those directions at times, thereby giving his walk a halting and searching appearance.〔 The film had interrupted shooting schedules due to funding problems. One long break spanned eight months. Satyajit Ray became nervous, among other things, that Banerjee, a growing young boy, could break his voice, thereby causing a problem in the continuity of the film. However, Banerjee's voice did not break during the production.
