Steven Speilberg's movie "E.T." was based on a story by Satyajit Ray?
"Speilberg's ET was actually based on a story by Satyajit Ray. The story was called 'Banku Babur Bandhu'."
I personally haven't read the story by Ray. But at least 2 Indian sf authors seem to think so. Cyril Gupta made above remark at indiansciencefiction Yahoo group on 27 December 2008; Arvind Mishra endorsed it on 28 December.
PS: Ray is a very well known Bengali movie director & story teller.

Tinkoo here is a correction -On Yahoo forum the endorsement of the Cyril's view was not of mine but Dr.Arvind Dubey ,another respected member of the forum.While I also endorse the view that "Steven Speilberg's movie "E.T." was based on a story by Satyajit Ray" ..Was the story plagiarised ? Its yet another story to investigate.
