'''Nabendu Ghosh''' (27 March 1917 – 15 December 2007) was an Indian author in [[Bengali literature]], and screenwriter. He has written screenplays of classic [[Bollywood]] movies like, [[Sujata (1959 film)|Sujata]], [[Bandini (film)|Bandini]], [[Devdas (1955 film)|Devdas]], [[Majhli Didi]], [[Abhimaan (1973 film)|Abhimaan]] and [[Teesri Kasam]]. He has written stories for movies like [[Baap Beti]], [[Shatranj]], [[Raja Jani]]. He has also acted briefly in [[Do Bigha Zameen]], ''[[Teesri Kasam]]'' and [[Lukochuri]]. Later in his career, he directed four movies as well.

==Biography==
Nabendu Ghosh was born 27 March 1917 in [[Dhaka]] (presently in [[Bangladesh]]). At the age of 12 he became a popular actor on stage. As an acclaimed dancer in [[Uday Shankar]] style, he won several medals between 1939 and 1945. Ghosh lost a government job in 1944 for writing Dak Diye Jaai, set against the [[Quit India Movement]] launched by [[Indian National Congress]]. The novel catapulted him to fame and he moved to [[Calcutta]] in 1945. He soon ranked among the most progressive young writers in Bengali literature.

After partition, [[Urdu]] was declared the state language of [[East Pakistan]]; thereby banning all Bengali literature and films. It was this political division that prompted Nabendu Ghosh to join [[Bimal Roy]] in 1951, when he left [[New Theatres]] in Kolkata, to make films for [[Bombay Talkies]]. Others in the team who also shifted were [[Hrishikesh Mukherjee]], [[Asit Sen (director)|Asit Sen]], Paul Mahendra, [[Kamal Bose]] and later [[Salil Chaudhury]]. After Bimal Roy's death, Ghosh worked extensively with [[Hrishikesh Mukherjee]].<ref>{{cite news |title=Memories and melodies of a golden era|url=http://hindu.com/2001/04/13/stories/09130225.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029215922/http://hindu.com/2001/04/13/stories/09130225.htm |url-status=dead |archive-date=29 October 2013 |date=13 April 2001 |work=[[The Hindu]]|accessdate=29 April 2013}}</ref>

Nabendu Ghosh has written on all historical upheavals of 1940s – famine, riots, partition – as well as love. His oeuvre bears the distinct stamp of his outlook towards life. His literary efforts are 'pointing fingers.' There is a multi-coloured variety, a deep empathy for human emotions, mysterious layers of meaning, subtle symbolism, description of unbearable life. Love for humanity is also reflected in his writings. He has to his credit 26 novels and 14 collections of short story. He directed the film ''[[Trishagni]]'' (1988), based on [[Saradindu Bandopadhyay]]'s historical short story ''Maru O Sangha''.

He died on 15 December 2007. He is survived by two sons, Dr Dipankar and filmmaker Shubhankar, and daughter [[Ratnottama Sengupta]] (film festival curator, author, and former ''[[The Times of India]]'' film journalist). His wife Kanaklata had died in 1999.<ref>{{cite news |title=Obituary – Nabendu Ghosh |url=http://www.sify.com/movies/obituary-nabendu-ghosh-news-bengali-kkfue8eefbf.html |publisher=Sify Movies |date=22 January 2008 |accessdate=30 April 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140408141928/http://www.sify.com/movies/obituary-nabendu-ghosh-news-bengali-kkfue8eefbf.html |archive-date=8 April 2014 |url-status=dead }}</ref> His autobiography, ''Eka Naukar Jatri '' was published in March 2008.<ref>{{cite news |title=Frames from the past: For the love of words |url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1080323/jsp/calcutta/story_9045886.jsp |publisher=The Telegraph |date=23 March 2008 |accessdate=30 April 2013}}</ref> His daughter-in-law, Dr Soma Ghosh is an acclaimed classical vocalist, and was conferred with the Padma Shree award in 2016.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://spicystarsmumbai.com/bismillah-khan-saab-is-100-and-lives-through-his-shehnai.html|title=BISMILLAH KHAN SAAB IS 100 AND LIVES THROUGH HIS SHEHNAI!|date=2016-10-20|newspaper=Spicy Stars Mumbai|language=en-US|access-date=2016-11-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161130035230/http://spicystarsmumbai.com/bismillah-khan-saab-is-100-and-lives-through-his-shehnai.html|archive-date=30 November 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref>
