The comedians who ruled Bengali Cinema

In the last century, the decade of 60s was the decade of comedians and vamps in the Hindi cinema. The vamps were rare in Bengali cinema, but 60s was the decade of comedians also in the Bengali cinema. But this trend started changing in both the national and regional cinemas from the mid 70s. The roles of the vamps were shifted from the specialized actresses to the main female lead and the responsibility of comedy was taken care of by the male leads.

Laughter, the best medicine

Bengali Cinema has had its fair share of comedies, featuring several character artists who have delighted the viewers not only in their time, but who, through repeats of their films on television, continue to tickle the funny bone even today.

Numerous films were made with prominent comic characters, and actors such as Bhanu Banerjee and Jahar Roy delivered very high standards of comedy in their films which entertained the movie lovers of Bengal, thoroughly.
