About this movie

With The Music Room (Jalsaghar), Satyajit Ray brilliantly evokes the crumbling opulence of the world of a fallen aristocrat (the beloved actor Chhabi Biswas) desperately clinging to a fading way of life. His greatest joy is the music room in which he has hosted lavish concerts over the yearsā€”now a shadow of its former vivid self. An incandescent depiction of the clash between tradition and modernity, and a showcase for some of Indiaā€™s most popular musicians of the day, The Music Room is a defining work by the great Bengali filmmaker.
