The first song from period drama
Devi Chowdhurani has been unveiled, and it arrives as a stirring ode to courage and nationhood. Titled
Durgamo Giri Kantar Moru, the composition beautifully blends the immortal verses of Kazi Nazrul Islam with the patriotic fervor of Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay’s
Vande Mataram, reimagined by percussion maestro
Bickram Ghosh on the 150th year of the national song.
The track features a stellar vocal line-up including Iman Chakraborty, Timir Biswas, Durnibar Saha, Ujjaini Mukherjee, and Bickram Ghosh himself. Their collective energy brings both grandeur and devotion, making the song a celebration of Bengal’s literary and musical heritage.
Sharing his thoughts, Bickram said, “
Durgamo Giri holds a deep patriotic resonance for every Bengali-speaking soul. Blending it with
Vande Mataram allowed us to create something unique, woven with classical nuances and folk textures. It has been a truly enriching journey.”
