A good quiz question is one that gives you clues through which you can figure out the answer, even if you don't know the answer immediately. A trivia question is certainly NOT a good quiz question.

The 2nd pic is ET. The first pic is by some Indian artist? MF Hussain?
2 is ET
1 is some Bengali version of Alien?
I guess the person connecting the two would be Satyajit Ray?
1) Satyajit Ray's short story The Alien??
2) ET
Donno the common link.
2nd image is ET
The second pic is the poster for the movie ET. My guess for the person is the designer of the alien in ET and Koi Mil Gaya.
Extra-terrestrial
Person connecting is Steven Spielberg,
it was claimed that he plagiarized the script of E.T. from Bengali play "The Alien" by Satyajeet Ray
Image 1: First page of the script of "The Alien", by Satyajit Ray in which he doodled some of the names he thought of for a movie. The first two in Bengali script are "Avatar" and "Mangal Kavya".
The Alien had Columbia Pictures as producer for this planned U.S.-India co-production, and Peter Sellers and Marlon Brando as the leading actors. Somehow, the movie never materialized.
Image 2: Movie poster of E.T. by Steven Spielberg. According to Satyajit Ray, the movie E.T. - "would not have been possible without my script of The Alien being available throughout America in mimeographed copies".
