In 2019, Chatterjee lent his voice for narration in ''If Not for You'', a documentary about ]'s long lasting love affair with legendary singer-songwriter ]. About his acting qualities, Satyajit Ray once remarked, "I do not know what definition of a star these filmmakers have been using, but mine goes something like this. A star is a person on the screen who continues to be expressive and interesting even after he or she has stopped doing anything. This definition does not exclude the rare and lucky breed that gets lakhs of rupees per film; and it includes everyone who keeps his calm before the camera, projects a personality and evokes empathy. This is a rare breed too but one has met it in our films. Dhritiman Chatterjee of Pratidwandi is such a star." - (''Our Films Their Films'')<ref>{{Cite web|title=Dhritiman Chatterjee finds Satyajit Ray’s film relevant during ongoing second surge|url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/west-bengal/calcutta/dhritiman-chatterjee-finds-satyajit-rays-films-relevant-in-current-times-of-religious-polarisation/cid/1815893|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210518030248/https://www.telegraphindia.com/west-bengal/calcutta/dhritiman-chatterjee-finds-satyajit-rays-films-relevant-in-current-times-of-religious-polarisation/cid/1815893 |archive-date=18 May 2021 }}</ref> |
