Sharmila and Soumitra began their careers together, starring in Apur Sansar, the third part of Ray’s Apu trilogy. In an interview with PTI, Sharmila, 75, said she still hadn’t processed the loss, and that she shared a connection beyond films with him. He was one of my oldest friends, after my husband Tiger (cricket legend Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi) and actor Shashi Kapoor. If I didn’t talk to him or if he didn’t talk to me, I wouldn’t feel ‘Oh God he hasn’t wished me, he doesn’t remember my birthday.’ It was just so organic.
