This is a band called James from Bangladesh.


They sang the song "Bheegi Bheegi" in the movie "Life In A Metro".

Oracle,

Modern Bengali songs are not of the same genre as the old ones, where the music was lilting and the lyrics were poetry!

Thanks all the same.

At least, your appending these songs does assist educating all with the modern trends.

Even today's Bengali films are no patch of the old days.

One of my relative is a film director and he agrees with me, though he feels I am totally out of sync with modern Bengal and that it is the only way to wean away the folks from pot boilers of Mumbai.

Yes Sir. Agreed. However, I find the lyrics of Tagore very tough to understand. It's the environment I guess, when I grew up I spoke Hindi/English more than Bengali.

Pmaitra babu, I tried digging the bengali version of Bheegi Bheegi of James. Could not find it. If you have it, could you please post it in here! Thanks!

Sir, pardon me for mentioning this, but your screen name does have a similarity with this great director:

This is the only Bengali rock song that I heard often and I like it too. I have heard that the band "Cactus" are quite known in Kolkata/Bengal. Being out of my home state since my birth, I haven't had the opportunity to get to know modern Bengali music, though I would love to explore. I heard this song at a Durga Puja festival in Delhi or Gurgaon somewhere, that I was visiting.

This is by a Bangladeshi band, I must say they are miles ahead of any Calcutta based bands when it comes to rock/metal.
