Music:



I am a fond listener of Rabindra Sangeet. And this is my only passion. I find myself enriched within my inner self and philosophically enhanced at every time when I listen ‘tomar-o asim-e pran-o mon-o loye’ by the legendary singer Debobroto Biswas or ‘Jagat-e Anondo joggye tomar nimontron’ by veteran artist Kanika Bandyopadhaya or several more songs which are really very close to my heart and emotion.
Songs of Gurudev Rabindranath Tegore evolve me passionately towards life, give the belief of unconditional surrender to all mighty and divinity towards my work.
Rabindranath’s personality is completely revealed in his songs, which may be the unconscious expression of his soul, the outpourings of his devotional heart, and the revelation of his poetic consciousness.
I am thoroughly astonished by his god like brilliancy. Tagore himself was also an accomplished musician and painter. Indeed, he wrote some 2,230 songs; together, these comprise ‘Rabindra sangeet’, now an integral part of Bengali culture and my culture of course. T It is said that his songs are the outcome of 500 years of literary & cultural churning that the Bengali community has gone through. These ran the gamut of human emotion, and are still frequently used to give voice to a wide range of experiences
