I haven't met better hosts than Raj and Subhashree: Jeet Gannguli

Recently music director Jeet Gannguli and his wife Chandrani got together with

Raj Chakrabarty

and Subhashree Ganguly at the latter's house . Ankush, Oindrila Sen and Baba Yadav were also part of the evening soiree. Jeet, who is the town to judge a music reality show, said, “Raj and Subhashree invited us over for dinner, and I must admit that I haven’t met better hosts than them. Subhashree cooked all my favourite dishes — from posto bata, chingrir malaikari to mutton kosha. She served us on bronze plates, and I loved it. It was after one-and-half years that I socialised and it was like a breath of fresh air,” said Jeet. Talking about his friendship with Raj, Jeet said, “Raj and I go a long way back. I was the music composer of his debut film Chirodini...Tumi Je Amar. Then I worked on hit films like

, Dui Prithibi, Prem Amar with him. My father used to consider Subhashree as my sister as we share the same surname! I also wanted to meet

Yuvaan

— he is so adorable. I got him a few toys and a Lakshmi-Ganesh silver coin. I will be going to Koel’s (Mallick) house, too, to meet Kabir. I met Kabir the day I went to meet Nispal (Singh) at his office on his birthday. Luckily, Kabir was there with Koel and we met. In our family, it is a ritual to present Lakshmi-Ganesh silver coins to a newborn baby when you meet him/her for the first time.”
On the work front, Jeet is composing music for three films. “I am scoring the music for Baba Yadav’s untitled film that stars Ankush and Subhashree in the lead. Then there is Rajdeep Ghosh’s Kolkata R Harry. There is also a film by Sujit Mondol where Priyanka Sarkar and Yash play the lead,’ he shared.
