Born in a Music loving family of Dakshineswar, Shantanu was attracted to Rabindrasangeet from his early childhood and received the first award for his performance at the age of seven. An engineer by profession, Shantanu has always pursued passionately the training in Rabindrasangeet for last twenty five years. One of the favourite students of late maestro Sri Subinoy Roy, Shantanu received the scholarship from Paschim Banga Rajya Sangeet Academy. He has been continuing his training under the guidance of another maestro Sri Argha Sen. Shantanu really belongs to the rare genre of vocalists for whom Rabindrasangeet is the other name of life. This is his first dedication of worship.
