Raja Narayan juggles multiple projects

Music composer Raja Narayan Deb is busy with a number of projects and one of them is Dev and Paoli starrer Sanjhbati. Directed by Leena Ganguly and Saibal Bosu, the film has three songs composed by Anupam Roy. The background score is being composed by Raja Narayan.
The film is based on people grappling with old age and its impact on the younger generation. Dev will be seen in a completely different avatar, which is a departure from his roles of a typical

action hero

. “It is a drama and a very nicely made film. It deals with the regular problems that people face in their old age,” said Raja Narayan.
The musician’s second project is quite different from his first. It is a horror film from Bangladesh titled

Jinn

, which has an extensive usage of background music. “In case of horror films, background score is extremely important. The mood of the film and every sequence depends on it. So, it’s a very important project for me,” he said, adding that the film will be released in January next year.
Recently, Raja Narayan also composed the background score of Andarkahini, but the Priyanka Sarkar starrer could never release due to a legal

battle

between the director and the producer of the film. It is a compilation of four stories based on four women. Each of these women has been played by Priyanka Sarkar and the stories show different aspects of a woman’s life.
