My Years with Boss at Gemini Studios

Description

For nearly thirty years from 1940, the Gemini Studios of Madras was the most influential film-producing organization of India and its founder, the brilliant multi-faceted entrepreneur S. S. Vasan lent substance and quality to the rather fragile and unpredictable movie business. Sahitya Akademi award-winning Tamil writer Ashokamitran worked for the Gemini Studios from 1952 to 1966. A full twenty years after Ashokamitran renounced films, poet-editor Pritish Nandy persuaded him to record his reminiscences and the result was a series of articles making up My Years with Boss.
