Popular names of the Bengali music industry will join to perform at the 'Bhalobashi Bangla Ke – Naboborsher Maha Jolsha' at the Science City Auditorium in Kolkata on April 19.
Supratiek Ghosh is the son of Bengal but with a Soul of India, he is a singer, songwriter, and composer and a movement in himself— an Indian rock star and a visionary music man of India who redefined how the nation connects with live music.
As Alive India celebrates 15 unforgettable years of uniting India through music, and his iconic band Aurko completes 25 musical years of heartfelt originals and unforgettable sing-alongs, the stage is now set for a historic cultural tribute.
For the first time ever, the musical powerhouses of Bengal Uru (Bangalore’s Bengali Collective), Bengal, and Bombay are coming together in one spectacular showcase—a celebration that transcends performance and becomes a musical movement.
This grand collaboration is a soulful homage to Bengal’s eternal legacy—a tribute to the legendary Bengali composers, poets, singers, and storytellers who have enriched and revolutionised seven iconic forms of Indian music. From Rabindra Sangeet to Rock Ballads, Nazrul Geeti to Indie Pop, Baul to Bollywood, and classic playback to contemporary fusion—this sonic journey is a celebration of Bengal’s timeless influence on India’s musical fabric.
Aurko, known for their stirring originals and crowd-favorite anthems, will join hands with India’s most respected artists to bring this tribute to life—on stage, on screen, and in the soul of every listener.
