I think Gita Ghatak also sang the same song in this film.

The singer was Dwijen Mukherjee. The song was quite well-rendered, but I dare
say the movie did not use it well, and the song did not blend with the movie
at all. It was perhaps the first Bengali movie by Munmun Sen, and I am afraid
quite poorly made.

Incidentally, how does everyone feel about "BaRo asha kore" sung by
Debabrata in his inimitable style? I think his was the best exposition
of that particular song.

Baidurya.

E ki labonye purno pran .... by Ritu Guha is none less than a classic.
However, for people who like this song I would definitely recommend
the renditions by Subinoy Roy and also Pijushkanti Sarkar. The latter
IMO has demonstrated a new style of singing this song.

I agree. Incidentally, the tune of this song is a borrowing from a western
melody (I seem to have read this somewhere). This seems quite apparent on
hearing this song.

The most memorable song by Debabrata Biswas that I have ever heard is
"Purano janiya cheyo na amare". This is the greatest song I have ever
heard in the Bengali language.

I used to have a cassette containing this song. I played, played and replayed
it so many times over that eventually the cassette got damaged and this song
won't play anymore.

Some people say that Suman Chattopadhyay's rabindrasangeet reminds them
of Biswas.

I have had a similar experience with "keno cheye acho go ma,
mukhopane..". This song was very beautifully used in Jukti, Tokko o Goppo
with the young SaoNli Mitra being portrayed as the "ma", and Ghatak
himself as the drunk, Naxal-sympathizing "son". Ms. Mitra looked quite
stunning in the film.

Top three unanswered questions of s.c.b. :


1) Rajiv Shukla-ka gussa k(n)yu ata hain? (Why is Rajiv Shukla so
angry ?)

2) What is the full name of T.H. Sanyal?

Thank you. But, I think the
tune was adapted from a Kannada (or another south Indian language) love
song. Unfortunately, I cannot recall more. There was a program on
Rabindranather bhanga gaan (including this particular song ) some years
back on Akashvani. Can any nettor shed some light on this?

This particular version, "With a high hope", is a translation of "BaRo
asha kore", not the other way around! It was done by, I seem to recall, by
Prof P. Lal of Calcutta. Debabarata made this translation famous by
singing it to the tune of BaRo asha kore. This was one of the objections
that Viswabharati Music Board brought later against him.

Regards,
Baidurya.

With a high hope
I have come up to you,
Hold out your arms,
Oh, Mother don't you send me back...


This actually is the translation of "boDo asha kore" and not the other way round.


Regards,
Sambit
