Devi (transl. Goddess) is a 1960 Bengali-language drama by director Satyajit Ray, starring Sharmila Tagore and Soumitra Chatterjee. It is based on a short story by Prabhat Kumar Mukhopadhyay. The film is based on believing in a dream, that a Zamindar (Chhabi Biswas) has witnessed, where he is delusional about his daughter-in-law revealing herself into a Goddess incarnate, worthy of being idolized and worshiped.
