Life
He was long associated with the Indian People's Theatre Association and with the stage, and his free, dramatic style brought him into dispute with the Visva-Bharati music board.
Listeners loved his records regardless; his voice is also heard in Ritwik Ghatak's Meghe Dhaka Tara.
The voice
A rich, deep baritone, sung with dramatic freedom.
