Marking the 158th birth anniversary of the maestro Rabindranath Tagore, Rabindra Sangeet exponent Anima Roy will be seen in an array of programmes across multiple television channels. She is scheduled to present various songs and participate in relevant talk shows throughout the day.

Rabindranath Tagore’s renowned play, Chitrangada, directed by Anima Roy was also recently staged at Jagannath University which was aired on Deepto TV. Anima Roy has been serving as the Chairman of the Music department for the university for the last few years. The talented artiste will also be seen sharing the stage with her mentors, Rezwana Choudhury Bannya and Sadi Mohammad, for the first time on TV. It will be aired today on ATN Bangla. Anima Roy also believes that in order for Rabindranath Tagore’s legacy to prosper, people should not only focus on his songs, but also share in his beliefs and values. Apart from the aforementioned programmes, multiple TV channels have also made special arrangements to celebrate the birthday of one of the greatest bards of Bengal.
