Mrinal Sen, the last of the Bengal triumvirate, dead-With unusual camera movements, he brought in new style
- Mrinal Sen, one of the towering figures of Indian cinema, passed away at his residence.
- The last of the triumvirate of legendary filmmakers that included Satyajit Ray and Ritwick Ghatak, Sen received various national and international awards, including the Dada Saheb Phalke Award in 2003.
- Sen was heavily influenced by parallel cinema and introduced a new kind of film-making with his unusual camera movement, non-linear narrative, discontinuities and freeze frames — something Indian cinema had never seen before.
