  I would recommend Mahanagar and Charulata if you have seen Apu triology already.

    Both excellent. Another great one IMO is "The Home and the World". Although not generally considered one of his masterpieces, I really like "The Stranger".

    brilliance. Indeed, the first one is one of the most heart-rending of tales. Streaming on Criterion Channel. I believe "Youtube" may have some of his films, as well. MUBI and Kanopy (free from most libraries' streaming services) also have some of his films.
    I cannot think of a great artist anywhere near his stature that is as unappreciated.
