Rahul Ranade, Creative Director of the show shared his sentiments, “My idea was to go beyond the routine orchestra drill. The Bengal Tiger promises to bring forth the most popular songs along with some rare and unheard melodies composed by each of the gems. The show is for everyone who loves Indian Film Music or quality music in general. While we have regaled their melodies for decades now, it would be important to know the process and journey behind each composition. I also think, the current generation needs to be aware and educated about the glorious musical history of Indian Film Music. As a die-hard and deriving musical inspiration all throughout my career from them, I am glad to pay a tribute to them”
Did you know that the state of Tripura gave us one of the genius music composers of all times? Did you know RD has arranged many songs for his father? Were you aware that Hemant Kumar was offered the citizenship of Baltimore because of his soulful music? If no, then The Bengal Tigers will be an opportunity to understand the trivia in the lives of these gems of Indian Music along with their music.
