INDIA FINE ARTS PROUDLY PRESENTS
THE LIVING LEGEND & MUSICAL COLOSSUS
Padmabhushan MANNA DEY
Prabodh Chandra Dey ,born in an orthodox Bengali family in Calcutta, better known by his nickname Manna Dey is one of the greatest playback singers in Hindi and Bengali films . He has recorded more than 3500 songs over the course of his career. Along with Mohammed Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Mukesh, he dominated Indian film playback music from the 1950s to the 1970s.
Padmabhushan Manna Dey is a legendary figure in Indian music.He pioneered a new genre in Indian music wherein Indian classical music is blended with pop music. Dey also performed Raindra Sangeet. In fact his is not merely a name that is deified everywhere, rather it creates a cripple of mixed appreciation and worship whenever cited. People venerate him not only for his musical bearing but because he epitomizes a wonderful combination of melody and poetry. His stance on Indian music vindicates the axiom- the art outlives the artist.
Mohammad Rafi once said to reporters “You listen to my songs. I listen only to Manna Dey’s songs.” According to musicians Sachin Dev Burman and Anil Biswas, Manna Dey could sing any song of Mohammad Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Mukesh and Talat Mehmood. Dey has been honored with the titles of Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan. Some of the awards are as follows;
