50 years living with a genius may not have been easy but it must have definitely been memorable. The late Bijoya Ray's biography, Manik and I, gives you a fairly candid ringside view of what life must have been being married to a genius like Satyajit Ray.Being his first cousin, their courtship in the '40s was conducted in utmost secrecy over 8 years - a hush hush marriage in Bombay where she was a fledgling actress. And through it all, family disapproval. Bijoya or Monku, as she was fondly called, passed away in 2015.
