Joydurga Talkies by Subrata Majumdar [Hardcover]

"There was a time when entertainment meant movies. The film industry was in its golden age. In suburban and rural areas, due to the absence of professional theatre groups and the lack of suitable theatres for stage plays, movies were the best means of entertainment. At that time, the concept of television was not clear to everyone. During this period, the number of theatres in suburban, rural, and urban areas increased significantly. Around these theatres, some people's daily lives revolved, with their livelihoods being directly and indirectly tied to them. The novel 'Joydurga Talkies' attempts to capture this era. Although the characters in the novel are somewhat based on reality, they have been fully fleshed out with enough earth and color. 'Joydurga Talkies' is a vibrant narrative of the daily joys and sorrows of these characters."
