About Satyajit Ray

Named after the iconic Bengali filmmaker Satyajit Ray (1921–1992) — Oscar winner and one of cinema's greatest directors. Serves the Mukundapur area.

Satyajit Ray opened on 15 March 2024 with the Orange Line's first section and is elevated with two side platforms. It is named for the film-maker, and serves the residential blocks either side of the EM Bypass around Hiland Park and Ajaynagar. The Orange Line runs almost entirely along the Bypass, which is why its stations sit above a fast six-lane road rather than in the middle of a neighbourhood.
