Shiladitya-Som Revive Nostalgic Puja Music With Two Songs

Durga Puja has long been a time when people looked forward to new music.

In the past, singers often released whole albums for the festival.

Now, individual songs are more common.

Composer duo Shiladitya-Som has released two new Puja songs.

Chupi chupi is a gentle Bengali song with an old-fashioned, emotional feeling.

Jhoome re phaagun is a lively Hindi-Bangla song meant for dancing.

Anwesshaa sings both songs, and Soham Majumdar wrote the lyrics.

Together, the songs show both the traditional and modern sides of Puja music.
