In the 30s and 40s, legendary singers like K C Dey, K L Saigal and Pankaj Mullick with their Hindi film and non-film songs mesmerized not only the people of Bengal but the whole of India. In fact,it was the K L Saigal-Pankaj Mullick duo who ruled the music scene in Calcutta (Kolkatta) in the 1940s. It was during this time that a new singer emerged in Calcutta who, with his solo song ‘o varsha ke pehle baadal meraa sandesaa le jaana’ in the film MEGHDOOT (1945) impressed the listeners very much.
