Sachin Bhowmick (17 July 1930[1] – 12 April 2011) was an Indian Hindi film writer and director. Writing was his main work and he wrote stories or screenplays for over 94 films.[2][3] He is best remembered for directing the light romantic black comedy classic Raja Rani (1973). He was also a regular contributor to Ultorath, a Bengali magazine on cinema. Due to the Bengali pronunciation of his surname Bhaumick we will find his surname spelled as Bhowmick in numerous sites.
His name served as the inspiration for an eponymous character played by Kharaj Mukherjee in the 2018 romance Dhadak.
