My Story
Hi, I’m Barnali. Music’s more than work for me – it’s my breath, my peace, my everything. Singing, especially for Heeramandi, feels like touching something divine. Got the Devi award, felt proud, you know. I really believe in Nari Shakti. Like I say, 'Amra Nari, Amra Shob Pari' (we women can do anything). My daughter, my sarees, my roots – all part of my story. Grateful for every musical evening. Dugga Dugga.
My Work
Classical & Semi-Classical Singing - I sing live at stage shows, baithakis, music festivals, and do studio work for films and jingles.
Unique Singing Style - My style mixes classical and semi-classical, with influences from different gharanas. Love singing Thumri and Ghazal.
Heeramandi & Film Vocals - You might know my voice from Heeramandi or films like Har Har Byomkesh. I do semi-classical film vocals.
Live Shows & Baithakis - I perform at big festivals and intimate baithaki evenings – each show is special to me.
Collaborations with Maestros - Sharing stage and studio with great artists, creating timeless music together – that’s what I live for.
