Jamshedpur, May 29: The capacity crowd at The Bengal Club Auditorium was left spellbound and enchanted by the recitation of Rabindranath and rebel poet Kazi Nazrul Islam’s poems by Bratati Bandyopadhyay and singer Manmay Bhattacharya’s sonorous presentations featured in a programme entitled, ‘Kobi Pronam,’ as the second part of a yearlong cultural celebration calendar on The Bengal Club’s centenary year. ‘Kobi Pronam’ was organized at The Bengal Club Auditorium in tribute to Kobi Guru Rabindranath Tagore and rebel poet Kazi Nazrul Islam.

Popular singer Manmay Bhattacharya is not a new name on the cultural horizon as he has been regaling elite as well as other music lovers with his sonorous voice. In addition, he is one of the panel of distinguished  judges on Zee TV Bangla’s popular programme, ‘Sa-Re-Ga-Ma-Pa.’
