The magic of Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen

Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen are names that need no introduction in the world of Bengali cinema, indeed they are icons in themselves and legends that have churned out hit film after film, where they have been romantically paired together.

If romance had to be given a face, the palette would be filled with Uttam and Suchitra romantic escapades on celluloid. Such was the power, charisma and chemistry that crackled between the two that for many a dreamy eyed fan they were the perfect combination just made for each other.

Much to the disappointment of many, Uttam and Suchitra did not form an off screen pair, much as the public would have liked them to. What transpired between the two has of course largely remained within them since both choose not to comment on it. As insiders would have it, mutual respect, admiration for each others work and a mutual love of cinema were the factors that led to a mutual admiration.

Both Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen ushered in a romantic era to the Bengali cinema that has never been witnessed before. Uttam Kumar, a Bengali romantic hero essayed roles in more than 200 films and was the first recipient of the National award for Best actor given by the Indian Government. On her part Suchitra Sen was and remains a living legend of Bengali cinema. She was the leading lady of her times, and during the fifties, sixties and the early seventies, she made a huge impact on the audience.

Together Uttam and Suchitra worked in about 30 films where they mesmerized the audiences with their onscreen romance. The simplicity of Uttam was a perfect foil for the polished and glamorous look of Suchitra. Together they made romantic film history. Some of their hugely popular hits together include, Deya Neya, Saptapadi, Harano Sur, Sagarika, Shapmochan, etc.

It must be mentioned here that much of the duo's popularity was contributed by the songs that showed them together. Melody and romance brought in the perfect tandem of melodrama that was portrayed in the Uttam Suchitra movies so effortlessly. The duo gave hit after hits and inspired an entire generation who not only fancied their romance but also copied their mannerisms, hair styles and way of talking and smiling too.

Both Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen have often been said to have delivered the best of their acting capabilities with each other. Fans, critics and film historians have often wondered at the eternal charisma that bought together these two actors who seemed to have something special going for them.

Amidst wide speculations of an off screen romance, it remains till date an unproven fact, something that perhaps their fans would have wanted more than anything else. It must be mentioned here that Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen are legends of Bengali cinema in their own right they did not need the support of anything else other than good cinema to prove their merit, however it is in perhaps their wonderful and heart wrenching portrayal of lovers on screen that captured the imagination of their fans who will remember them forever as the golden couple of Bengali cinema.
