"Sagina is one of my most loved films. It is based on the true story of the labour movement. Sagina, a factory labourer..is an honest, aggressive and loveable character who was the first against the tyranny of the British bosses in the tea gardens of Northern-Eastern India. I was so happy when Sahib and revered Tapan Sinha worked together...they were such good friends and like minded that they brought ease and cordiality while filming Sagina."

"Sharing a scene which is my personal favourite...when Sagina who is a robust ongoing man, is sitting in his office absolutely bored and suffocated and then he steps out compelled to breathe the fresh air in the lush outdoors. Then he spots the coming of the train and exuberantly matches speed with the passing train. I think it is one of Sahib's most spell binding and enthralling performances."
