<p>Earlier in the day, Bollywood star Jackie Shroff had paid tribute to Suchitra Sen by sharing a beautiful portrait picture of the late actress on his social media account.</p>
<p>Along with the post he had written, &lsquo;Remembering Suchitra Sen on her birth anniversary.&rsquo; He also put up the song <em>Rahe Na Rahe Hum</em> from Suchitra Sen and Sanjeev Kapoor-starrer <em>Mamta</em>, as the background music.</p>
<p>Talking about Suchitra Sen, the legendary actress was primarily active from the 1950s to the 1970s era of Bengali and Hindi cinema. She was called the 'Mahanayika' of Bengali cinema. Her pairing with <strong><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/regional-indian-cinema-news/article/Uttam-Kumar-s-birth-anniversary--Kolkata-restaurant-celebrates--Guru--through-his-favourite-dishes-15576177" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Uttar Kumar</a></strong> was widely loved, and the two went on to do 30 films together, including <em>Sharey Chuatter</em> (1953), <em>Agni Pariksha</em> (1954), <em>Saptapadi</em> (1961), <em>Chaowa Pawa</em> (1959), <em>Sagarika</em> (1956), and <em>Jiban Trishna</em> (1956).&nbsp;</p>
<p>Her first Bollywood movie was <em>Devdas</em> (1955), where she played Paro opposite Dilip Kumar's Devdas. She was nominated for a Filmfare Best Actress Award for her performances in Mamta (1966) and Aandhi (1975).</p>
<p>For the uninitiated, Suchitra Sen was the mother of actress Moonmoon Sen, and the grandmother of actresses Raima Sen and Rimi Sen.</p>
<p>The legendary actress breathed her last on January 17, 2014.</p>
<p>Talking about Moonmoon Sen, the actress, like her mother, has been a prominent face in Indian cinema. She made her mark in Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam films. The actress starred in movies such as <em>Andar Bahar</em>, <em>Musafir, Jaal</em> and others.</p>
<p>Talking about Raima Sen, the actress has been a part of Bollywood for almost two decades. She has been a part of movies like <em>Parineeta</em>, <em>Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd</em>., and <em>The Japanese Wife</em>.</p>
