Euphoria Returns With 'Dhoomsday' As Dr Palash Sen Stays Doctor
A famous Indian band called Euphoria is making a new album called "Dhoomsday."
The band became super popular years ago with a song called "Dhoom Pichak Dhoom" that people still love.
The singer, Dr. Palash Sen, is also a real doctor.
He promised his mom he would never stop being a doctor, and he still treats patients for free.
He says he never left medicine for music.
The new album has nine songs made with many different artists, including a special song with a singer named KK who has passed away.
Palash Sen says the songs are about things people worry about today.
He became popular by mixing rock music with Indian languages and traditions.
Later this year, the band will also release "Dhoom 25," which is a new version of their first two albums.
Palash Sen says he does not write songs to make them famous—he just writes songs and lets the universe decide what happens.
Euphoria is releasing a new album called "Dhoomsday," nearly 28 years after "Dhoom Pichak Dhoom" became a youth anthem.
Dr. Palash Sen, 60, says he never left medicine for music and still treats patients for free as part of a promise to his mother.
The album features nine collaborations across languages and musical traditions, including a recreated duet with the late singer KK.
Sen built Euphoria's signature sound by blending rock with Hindi, Urdu, folk traditions, and Indian classical influences.
A follow-up project, "Dhoom 25," a re-recording and remastering of Euphoria's first two albums, is due later this year.
