Eka Jajabor is Indranil Sen’s Puja offering this year. This album is a nice mix of folk based and raga based songs, perfect for a melodious festive season. The first song on Side A, Hote pare mon baul batash, has a nice rhythm to it, is a well-written song by Korok and with music by Shivaji Chattopadhyay. The song directly heralding Puja is the first song on Side B — Ashchhe pujo notun saaje, with music by Debjit and the lyric by Korok again. Indranil’s voice has the right mix of romanticism and devotion required for the songs here and can be listened to through the festive season. That doesn’t mean that the album doesn’t have anything on a lighter note. Tomar sathe prathom dekha is something on the faster lane and is one of the playful songs which also goes well with the spirit of the moment. Some melancholic notes are there in Eei tobe shesh dekha, again by the Korok-Shivaji duo. The album ends on a classical note with the song, Godhulir gaan gaaye pran, whose music is by Samik and the lyric by Saikat Kundu.
