My Compelling Story

Antarman is a LIVE band based out of the finance capital of India, Mumbai. They are about connecting with one’s emotions to the uninfluenced truth of oneness. Antarman is the name of their first album as well. This album focuses on folk music from the eastern parts of India, especially Assam and Bengal. The band is primarily an outcome of pure passion for music, conceived and created by Pooja Shankar, Randeep Bhaskar, and Rahul Mukherjee. The endeavour of Antarman is to collaborate and mix the folk music from every part of India in their music, with a vision to promote folk music rendered in a contemporary form. The album is signed and supported by Times Music, is sculpted very beautifully by weaving folk styles with new age music trends, melody and arrangement, for the multi-lingual cultures in this incredibly musically and culturally rich country like India. The poetic renditions in the album are created to take one through the many aspects of life by connecting each one's inner senses, irrespective of language or age. Their first video of Tatar Patar, one of the songs in the album, is set on simple Baul energy based on the conversation of the seeker and the existence. Tatar Patar implies finding life and living it to the fullest in spite of all the chaos around. The video portrays it beautifully as the journey of life, rejoicing the free self, yet rooted deeply in culture. Band Members: Pooja Shankar Rahul Mukherjee Randeep Bhaskar
