Happy Birthday, Buddhadeb Dasgupta! You're the director who made us dream vividly with "Swapner Din" and left us pondering deeply after watching "Uttara." Winning two National Film Awards for Best Director isn't just impressive—it's practically cinematic magic. Clearly, your films age better than fine wine (and certainly better than most Bollywood dance moves).May your birthday be filled with as much joy and creativity as you've given audiences worldwide. Here's hoping you continue directing life's best scenes off-screen too—just remember to yell 'cut' before blowing out those candles! Cheers to another year of storytelling brilliance and timeless cinema!
