Kalo Bhramar could be first Bengali film to use a Rabindra Sangeet in thriller sequence : Debojyoti

“I have used Rabindranather Gaan (The song of Tagore) in a different style which comes at a climax in the scene involving the  character of Dr Sanyal" (the archetypal grey shade character in Kiriti novel), the celebrated music man told IBNS.

The very words in the Tagore  song  denote light, darkness, freedom, bondage – the contrasting shades in our lives and how to overcome the darkness to attain light, Debojyoti said.

“I am not sure if Rabindra Sangeet is for the first time used in a thriller on sleuth. But I had certainly not come across Rabindrasangeet having been used as background score in a climax scene of a triller,”  the ‘Raincoat’ music composer said.

The ‘Chitrangada’ and ‘Memories In March’ music composer said his Tagorean compositions in ‘Kalo Bhramar’ comprised of musical pieces denoting the era of 1960 and also 2016.

“Spanning a period of 56 years, it will be a fusion kind of thing where Bengaliness, Tagore and Ghazal and western classical pieces will be put together in a multi-hued bouquet. Where tradition and modernity will go hand in hand as the story line of 1960 is transplanted in 2016 and the music will define that change in acoustics feel,” he said.

“For that I have used a whole lot of instruments including violin,” he said.

Directed by ‘Bonku Babu’ maker Anindya Bikas Dutta, ‘Kiriti O Kalo Bhromor’ stars ‘Kahaani’ man Indraneil Sengupta, cerebral Bengali film actor Kaushik Sen and others.

The first Kiriti film by writer Nihar Ranjan Gupta  in Bengali will be released on September 9.
