==Storyline ==
The story revolves around a girl called Sohini (more commonly known as Pupe) from an orthodox Tagore worshipping family and Gora, an extremely talented but carefree lad, who keeps on experimenting with [[Rabindra sangeet]]. The story traces their relationship and human emotions through an imaginative portrayal of Tagore, his true ideals and their significance today. It also portrays the patriarchal society still prevalent in modern India. The serial used more than fifty Tagore songs and brought out their relevance in the lives of the protagonists. The cast was composed of stalwarts such as [[Sabyasachi Chakrabarty]] and [[Dipankar De]] plus newcomers [[Gaurav Chakrabarty|Gaurav]] and [[Arjun Chakrabarty]] (sons of [[Sabyasachi Chakrabarty]] ). The female lead was played by [[Mimi Chakrabarty]] in only her second project as an actress.
The show has portrayed three different forms of Rabindrasangeet: the more traditional kind through the voice of Pupe, a fused version with Hindustani classical music, through the voice of Pradipto, and an 'unplugged' rendition, sometimes incorporating rap words and band music, through Gora. Several singers such as Anindya Narayan Biswas, Samantak Sinha, Sharmistha Paul,<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.telegraphindia.com/1110508/jsp/graphiti/story_13952377.jsp|title=The young minstrels|newspaper=[[The Telegraph (Calcutta)]]|accessdate=8 May 2011}}</ref> Soumyojit Das, Amrita Datta, Debashish Banerjee and Runu Dutta were roped for playback singers.
