Chatterjee, Honorary General Secretary, Publishers & Booksellers Guild.

Poet Srijato who is the advisor of Star manch was also present during the event. 

Through ‘Boi Melar Gaan’ Anindya Chattopadhyay has reiterated book lovers’ emotions and their subtle habits while vising Book Fair in an amusing way which will surely be loved by one and all.

Especially, this song beautifully showcases how Book Fair allures people irrespective of their age, gender, and difference of choices. Eminent elocutionist Chandrima Roy has anchored the show at Starmanch.

Sudhangshu Sekhar Dey, President of Publishers & Booksellers Guild; and Tridib Kr. Chatterjee, Honorary General Secretary, Publishers & Booksellers Guild commented, “The organisers of International Kolkata Book Fair 2022 are elated to have ‘Boi Melar Gaan’ which is a unique initiative taken by ‘Star Manch’ and it perfectly sets the mood of the Kolkatans right before the inauguration of their much-awaited Book Fair.” 

Singer and composer Anindya Chatterjee said, “Book Fair has always been a part and parcel of Kolkata’s culture and tradition. All of us have been eagerly waiting for it as the pandemic put a halt to gatherings, so we thought of making the ‘Come-Back’ of Book Fair a bit more special with a song woven around it and this would not have been possible without ‘Star Manch.' ”

CEO of Star Manch Randeep Bhattacharya commented in this regard, “Star Manch is immensely proud and honoured to be associated with International Kolkata Book Fair 2022 and ‘Star Manch’ will be present in the fairground with five stalls for music lovers who would like to explore various musical games and competitions.”
