These two compositions are based on Raga Yaman. they have been immortalized by legends Mehdi hassan and Farida Khanum respectively. Conducting the programme is popular TV anchor Rini Biswas. The team of musicians include Sanatan Goswami on Harmonium, Soumen Sarkar on Tabla and Surajit Chakraborty on Keyboards.
A song written by Kavi Nishikanta and composed by Dilip Kumar Roy. The tune is very much on the lines of "Ekbar Gaal Bhora Maa Daake", a famous composition of his father D.L.Roy. The tune is typically Baul in fact. Sounak attempts to sing the song in the original Dilip Roy style, using very different techniques though.
