Now, I can get shows under my name: Shrestha

Meet Shrestha Das, who made her playback debut with the Bengali film Bohurupi. She delivered three hits, Dakatiya Banshi, Shimul Polash, and Tui Amar Hoe Ja, in the film. The first two are folk tunes, while the third is a love ballad.

The uncut gems on prestigious platforms

Pandit Samar Saha’s organisation, Sangeet Piyasi, inspired by the ‘Sculptor of Talents’ such as Vijay Kichlu, took the lead to unearth and present prodigious talents on its prestigious stage for the last thirty-three years.
