Bengalis get Valentine's Day anthem: Anupam Roy's 'Putul Aami' to release on Feb 14
Kolkata: Saregama, in collaboration with National Award Winning Musician Anupam Roy, is all set to release their first Bengali song– Putul Aami, featuring actors Riddhi Sen and Surangana Bandopadhyay.
Anupam Roy who is one of the most acclaimed musicians of the country becomes the first exclusive non-film partner for Saregama.
Saregama with Anupam Roy will be releasing 4 songs of different genres throughout the year.
With the contemporary new love song ' Putul Aami', Anupama Roy talks about a modern love which is not an old school romance.
Specially released on the occasion of Valentine's Day, it features the popular young couple Riddhi and Surangana.
Real life couple Riddhi Sen and Surangana Bandopadhyay (post their stint on Open tee Bioscope) will be partnering for the first time as an onscreen romantic couple in the music video.
The love song Putul Ami narrates the story of a man ( Riddhi) who has been friendzoned. He feels that like a puppet on a string constantly moving to the whims and fancies of the woman he desires ( Surangana).
The video shall feature Anupam Roy himself where he is seen crooning to "Chhure Phele De Amae, Kacche Tene ne Aamaye"....Putul Aami" ( Push me away or bring me closer, I'm a puppet in your hands) standing in a room full of mannequins.
The parallel story shall feature a female doll maker (Surangana) who is constantly trying to create the doll of her ideal man, while the guy next door ( Riddhi) who is in love with her is always waiting for her to notice him.
Positive about this association and Saregama's contribution to Bengali Music Industry, Vikram Mehra, MD, Saregama India Limited said, "It has been Saregama’s belief that regional music consumption will hold a definitive stronghold over the entire Indian music landscape. We are betting big on regional tunes and stories. Taking a leap in the Bengali music space, we look forward to this long-term association with Anupam Roy, who I believe is one of the greatest present-day Bengali musicians. We hope to create music that passes on for generations to come with Anupam.”
The teaser launch of the love song took place at Octa Park Street in the presence of artists Anupam Roy, Riddhi Sen and Surangana Bandopadhyay on Feb 12, marking the Valentine week.
Produced by Saregama , Directed by Abhirup Ghose, composed, sung and written by Anupam Roy, featuring Riddhi and Surangana, Putul Aami releases this Feb 14 on the YouTube channel of Saregama.
