He was popularly called as Gurudev and his songs were and still popularly known as Rabindrasangeet. Two songs from his Rabindrasangit are now the national anthems of India and Bangladesh: the Jana Gana Mana (India’s National Anthem) and the Amar Shonar Bangla (Bangladesh’s National Anthem).

A prospective barrister, Tagore enrolled at a public school in Brighton, East Sussex, England in 1878. He read law at University College London, but left school to explore Shakespeare and more.

When Tagore was small, he was mostly raised by servants, as his mother had died in his early childhood and his father travelled extensively. Tagore largely declined classroom schooling, preferring to roam the mansion or nearby idyll. Upon his sacred thread ceremony initiation at age eleven, Tagore left Kolkata on 14 February 1873 to tour India with his father for several months.

In 1901, Tagore moved to Santiniketan to found an ashram which grew to include a marble-floored prayer hall, an experimental school, groves of trees, gardens, and a library. By now, his work was gaining him a large following among Bengali and foreign readers alike, and he published such works as Naivedya (1901) and Kheya (1906) while translating his poems into free verse.

Jai Ho!

The duo has charmed music lovers with their versatility by producing different styles and genres in movies like Kurbaan, Fashion and Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.

Well, they do deliver along with lyricist Anvita Dutt Guptan, as apparent in the very first track ‘Alisha’ where Salim Merchant comes forward as a singer to join Anushka Manchanda behind the microphone. There is a definite Salim-Sulaiman stamp on the entire composition and the Western treatment only makes it livelier.
