Bunny Reuben

Bunny Reuben (1926 ā€“ 15 February 2007) was an Indian film historian, journalist, and publicist. He wrote several books, both fictions and non-fictions, and started his career as a film-focusing journalist in the 1940s, working for several publications, including Filmfare. According to Randhir Kapoor, a son of the actor Raj Kapoor, whose biography Reuben wrote, "It is a great loss to the RK family and the film industry. He was not only a good journalist and publicist, he was a great film historian."[1] Navras Jaat Aafreedi of the Presidency University, Kolkata described Reuben in 2016 as one of the most prominent Bene Israel figures of India.[2]
