Araj unleashes the magic of music at Bengal Biennale Kolkata chapter inaugural concert

The Kolkata Chapter of the Bengal Biennale kicked off with a spectacular musical evening, as the celebrated band Araj took to stage for the inaugural concert, setting the tone for a month of artistic celebration. The performance was a deeply enriching experience for all in attendance, with Araj delivering a powerful and engaging set that resonated with the audience.


Ishaan Ghosh, a member of Araj, expressed his excitement about the performance, remarking, “On behalf of Araj, I can only say it was enthralling and very, very engaging to play in Kolkata. This is our second time performing here, and playing at the inauguration couldn’t be more special.”

Araj, a band known for their national and international acclaim, particularly among the youth, brought a unique energy to the stage. Ghosh added, “Araj is a band that has received a lot of appreciation, especially from the younger generation. When we’re on stage, it’s a reflection of how we are off stage, as we are very close buddies.” The evening was a fitting start to the Bengal Biennale - Kolkata Chapter, blending music, camaraderie, and a shared passion for creativity, setting the stage for the exciting events to come.
