His works have a humane warmth, crystalline clarity, and mythic evocativeness that allows them to transcend the limitations of alien cultural sensibilities. He received a special Academy Award for Lifetime Achievement in 1992. He passed away on April 23, 1992. His burial was held with full state honours and was proclaimed an official holiday by the West Bengal government. Over a million people came to pay their respects.
