A writer and lyricist with the thoughts of new age mixed with a flavor of old nostalgia, deeply involved in the love for Kolkata-The city of Joy,
If you can dream it, you can do it, it was the dream of this person who although being a automobile engineer himself and not related to the music field decided to do something creative, some thing new, which has not been done before from Kolkata.
It was just coincidence that brought Saurabh (writer and lyricist) and Moinakh(Music Composer) together on a common platform and immediately the idea started taking shape into a journey of a experimental Hindi Music Album Lafz.

The album Lafz which is having the USP of being the first Hindi Music Album from Kolkata, containing a flavor of Bengal blended with romantic feelings in shayarana gesture is indeed a different type of album.
On one hand it has the content to attract the youth and on other hand its nostalgic melody is bound to create a big impact amongst the middle & old listeners, admirers of music.
Its diversity is a Pandora box with multi color and multi dimensional thoughts embedded in soft harmony which has the capability to soothe and entertain, taking the listener to a voyage of eternity.
