My Varied World of the Arts

My Music

I have been composing since I was in middle school.  I first stint was to set to tune five songs of a children’s play, “Shahure Mama” by Sunirmal Basu when I was a 7th grader.  Since then I have continued to compose songs and scores of plays.  This is a home for some of my published work.

My Stage Productions

With over 50 stage productions, it almost seems that I spent more of my time on stage or preparing for one. I enjoy working for the stage since I feel it is the ultimate culmination of all forms of the arts. It is a platform where appreciation (or rebuke) is instantaneous!

My Writings

Writing is an avenue of self-expression available to anyone who wants to pursue it. It is extremely low-cost… you need a pencil and paper, and available more readily to all ages. No wonder I took to writing very early… first poems then, short stories and songs.

Et cetera

Lighting design has been an integral part of all my productions. The shadow art that my mother taught got me interested in the art of lighting design.  I also own a decent recording studio where I plan to spend more time going forward. I made a couple of documentary films.
