Basu Chatterjee

Indian film director (1930–2020)

Basu Chatterjee was an Indian film director and screenwriter in Hindi Cinema and Bengali.

Like their films, his films dealt with light-hearted stories of middle-class families often in urban settings, focusing on marital and love relationships. The exceptions being films such as Ek Ruka Hua Faisla (1986) and Kamla Ki Maut (1989), which delved into social and moral issues.
