The establishment of the university was a compensation of the annulment of the 1905 Partition of Bengal, the partition had established East Bengal and Assam as a separate province, with Dhaka as its capital. However, the partition was abolished in 1911 due to opposition from Indian National Congress. To appease the people of East Bengal, Lord Curzon declared that a university as a center of excellence would be established in Dacca, khwaja Salimullah, the Nawab of Dhaka, also played a pioneering role in establishing a university in Dhaka.

The origins of the nickname Tollywood, a portmanteau of the words Tollygunge and Hollywood, modern Bengali cinema is known for re-inventing the cinematic norms from the poetically theoretical to the in-your-face physical and romantic fantasies, that which is evident in the western world. This allowed Bengali filmmakers to reach a global audience, the most influential among them was Satyajit Ray, whose films became successful among European, American and Asian audiences. The youthful coming-of-age dramas that have flooded art houses since the mid-fifties owe a debt to the Apu trilogy. Kanchenjungha introduced a structure that resembles later hyperlink cinema. Rays 1967 script for a film to be called The Alien, ira Sachs Forty Shades of Blue was a loose remake of Charulata, and in Gregory Navas My Family, the final scene is duplicated from the final scene of The World of Apu. Similar references to Ray films are found in recent works such as Sacred Evil, the Elements trilogy of Deepa Mehta, another prominent Bengali filmmaker is Mrinal Sen, whose films have been well known for their Marxist views. During his career, Mrinal Sens films have received awards from film festivals, including Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Moscow, Karlovy Vary, Montreal, Chicago. Retrospectives of his films have shown in major cities of the world. Some of his films have strong similarities to later famous international films, such as Ajantrik resembling the Herbie films, the cinematographer Subrata Mitra, who made his debut with Rays The Apu Trilogy, also had an importance influence on cinematography across the world. One of his most important techniques was bounce lighting, to recreate the effect of daylight on sets and he pioneered the technique while filming Aparajito, the second part of The Apu Trilogy. Some of the techniques which Satyajit Ray pioneered include photo-negative flashbacks. It was this chance juxtaposition of two pairs of rhyming syllables, Holly and Tolly, that led to the name Tollywood being coined, Tollywood later went on to inspire the name Bollywood, which in turn inspired many other similar names. The history of cinema in Bengal dates to the 1920s, when the first bioscopes were shown in theaters in Calcutta, following a long gap after Sens works, Dhirendra Nath Ganguly established the Indo British Film Co, the first Bengali-owned production company, in 1918.

The name Bollywood is a derived from Bombay, India, and Hollywood, California. Bollywood does not exist as a physical place, some deplore the name, arguing that it makes the industry look like a poor cousin to Hollywood. The naming scheme for Bollywood was inspired by Tollywood, the name that was used to refer to the cinema of West Bengal and it was this chance juxtaposition of two pairs of rhyming syllables, Holly and Tolly, that led to the portmanteau name Tollywood being coined. However, Tollywood is now used popularly to refer to the Telugu Film Industry in Telangana & Andhra Pradesh, the term Bollywood itself has origins in the 1970s, when India overtook America as the worlds largest film producer. Credit for the term has been claimed by different people, including the lyricist, filmmaker and scholar Amit Khanna.

The next year, he made another film, a version of Mother India. However, colour did not become a feature until the late 1950s.
