He is an artiste of international renown and has received prestigious awards including the Sangeet Natak Academy Award, Kumar Gandharva Samman, and Hanumant Award. He is also dedicated teacher and is senior Guru at the ITC Sangeet Research Academy in Kolkata, and at the Bengal Foundation’s Parampara Sangeetalay in Dhaka.
