A heritage steel plaque was installed at PC Sorcar Senior’s house at 227A Rashbehari Avenue on Friday in the presence of his son PC Sorcar Junior and his wife Jayashree. The illusionist had spent a number of years at this art deco house, where he would practise his skills and art.
The heritage house had elephants and a lion among its residents. The animals featured at the magician’s shows.
The heritage plaque, on the lines of London’s blue plaque, commemorates well-known city residents and the houses where they lived. It is an initiative of Intach, Calcutta chapter, and Rotary International District 3291.
