Any discussion on Meghnad Saha cannot go too far without inevitably referring to his friend and colleague, and another eminent Bengalee Physicist, Satyendra Nath Bose, see S. N. Bose Project for a praiseworthy effort of his grandson. Also, enjoy this amazing photograph taken around 1929 that captures many of the superstars of Indian science (Sir Jagadish Chandra Bose, centre, with his students Meghnad Saha, J.C. Ghosh (both sitting), S. Dutta, S.N. Bose, D.M. Bose, N.R. Sen, J.N. Mukherjee and N.C. Nag):
