Noted elocutionist Raja Das, filmmakers like Ranjay Roy Chowdhury, Pritha Chakraborty, composer Ashu Chakraborty teamed up to make a birthday special project of Gulzar. It is as a tribute to the living legend on his birthday from Bengal. Gulzar has very close connections with Kolkata.

Some of his Shayari have been translated in Bengali recited by Raja himself. A visual presentation made by Ranjay, Pritha, music set by Ashu was released on 18th August on Gulzar’s birthday on digital platform.

It is a team effort by the legend’s fans. Gulzar’s writings, such as ‘Main Kuch Kuch Bhulta Zata Hoon, Mujhko Bhi Ek Tarkib Shikha Do’ or ‘Yaad Hai, Roz Mere Mez Pe Baithe Baithe’ – they have tried to highlight a number of such shayari in Bengali.

Raja said that Pijus, a prominent poet and Ashu, a renowned music director discussed the whole plan as everyone was a fan of Gulzar. Ranjay RC is a great director and photographer. He started working on the project.

Raja added that Gulzar is a star to him who will shine in the minds of everyone even in the midst of intense darkness.
