The highlight of his career was undoubtedly Satyajit Ray's Paras Pathar (The Philosopher's Stone). This 1957 film, which the great film critic Marie Seton described as a sort of combination of comedy, fantasy, satire, farce and a touch of Pathos showcases Tulsi's histrionic abilities to the maximum.
He plays the role of the protagonist Paresh Dutta, a petty bank clerk who accidentally finds the mythical Philosopher's Stone (the stone that transforms iron into pure gold) and then goes through a roller-coaster ride of fame, fortune and the inevitable downfall.
His other notable performances include Sharey Chuattor(1953), Paresh, Kabi, Ramer Sumati, Shyamali, just to name a few. He was one of the finest character artist Bengali movie ever produced. However, during those days, the cinema production controllers tried to exploit actors a lot.
As Mr. Chakraborty was very shy and introvert person, never asked for any hike in his paltry fees during shooting. Hence, in-spite-of acted in more than 300 movies and theaters, he never been able to earn much as he could have been.
After his death, due to abject poverty, his widow suffered a lot. Another notable film personality, Mr. Mithun Chakraborty was caring enough to send her Rs. 500 every month till she died.
