Satya Prakash's POV



Film “ Thinking of Him” :- Amazing for Actor Victor Banerjee
( More than ½ age difference)


Unveiling the curtain to say to you all about our great International Actor Victor Banerjee who has acted the role of Nobel Laureate world’s poet Rabindranath Tagore in our film “Thinking of Him”. What an awesome resemblance between two personas of Bengal.



!!!!!!!!!!! What a body gesture and the move of his step of Victor Banerjee as Tagore!!!! Resemblance and actions of actor will take you to the image of Tagore, the entire human world has perceived in their senses.

Another striking feature profoundly and coincidently has happened in the life of great actor Victor Banerjee, is so fascinating that you will be amazed. In our film “THINKING OF HIM” the story revolves around the platonic love between Tagore and Argentinian famous authoress Victoria Ocampo and their intellectual pursuit. Moot point is the age –difference between two giant international personality .Love does not take notice of ages and wrinkles on skin. Love needs human discourse between two individuals.


Victoria and Tagore love to each other at the Human discourse of purest form of Art and that is none other than the poetry. Such a ventilation of art between them is termed as Love. However, we cannot dub love between Tagore and Victoria as their lovey-dovey .Their symbiosis became the symbiosis of two nations: India and Argentina. The actor Victor Banerjee drowns himself into ocean and becomes so impersonal from himself and forms a grand character of Rabindranath Tagore of various ages when he keeps replying to the letters of Victoria Ocampo since 1913 when he receives world’s most coveted accolade Nobel Prize for his poetry “Gitanjali”. Tagore touches his 52 springs and Victoria Ocampo has got fabulous 23 springs.
Actor Tagore is now at 63 and Victoria at 34. They both interact at Buenos Aires of Argentina. Victoria is restless to feel weakness of her Gurudev. She takes him to her residence.


A new sublimated intellectual discourse begins between them, between reciting Tagore and Vijaya (Tagore lovingly calls Victoria as Vijaya) Where is Our great actor Victor Banerjee ? You will nowhere find him in this film “Thinking of Him”. This is the immense impersonalization of Victor Banerjee into the world figure Rabindranath Tagore.This is the great virtue of actor who maintains his entire Byranotic (The romantic poet Byran of England) passion and intellectual fascination to the great young lady Victoria Ocampo of Buenos Aires. Eleonora Wexler ,the great young actress of Buenos Aries is so marvel to ooze out her character. Awesome sync between two awesome actors of India and Argentina has added aesthetic to the visuals of the film. When Tagore comes back to India, he confesses that his writings have improved with divine human fascination.He has written a love song for Victoria Ocampo and that is on the lips of Bengali people cutting across the ages. Tagore has painted more than two thousand paintings on humble insistence of Victoria Ocampo. This is the love between them.


Love has freed Tagore and Victoria from all social complexes and they have reached a new height of world persona that has compelled all of us to make film on it. In 1930, the same age difference but they meet in Paris where Victoria Ocampo organizes Painting Exihibition at Pigalle Gallery,Paris, France.This is manifestation of love on the part of love lady of Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore. Victoria’s love lies in fascination to the sacrifice. Tagore’s attention is so hearty that storms in the ocean of paintings and poetry.

Same beautiful thing happened again in Cine-life of great actor Victor Banerjee in film “The Jogger’s Park” where he is a retired judge who starts loving a beautiful young girl acted by sultry beauty Perizad who comes in contact with Judge for legal assistance because she has some property legal case. Victor Banerjee as Judge has assisted her with full devotion of infatuated love. The young unmarried girl and the retired judge frees from this bonding to the human plank. However, this film is complete a fictional work so they both actors play the fictional characters.

Reverse to it, our film “Thinking of Him” is fictiono-realistic film. Tagore and Victoria ‘s portion is real and that’s why, this part of film has been shot on Black and white reel of Arri 435….The film maker’s vintage romance is emotionally related to it.



How history of great actor Victor Banerjee gets replicated again in our film “THINKING OF HIM” in long years of 2003, romanticize all of us who can love the woman of any age if we value the woman as human.
