Mukhopadhyay lived through the fractures of partition, the uncertainties of migration, and the routines of middle-class survival. Politics was inherited consciousness, not a slogan. Songwriting became a ledger of conscience: a daily reckoning with history, place, and identity. His voice quivered at the edges, not from lack of technique, but from the weight of feeling itself. Being Bengali was not taught; it had to be experienced.

Renowned lyricist, composer, and musician Pratul Mukhopadhyay has passed away after spending several days in the hospital.

Pratul’s impressive discography includes beloved albums such as “Pathore Pathore Nache Agun”, “Jete Hobe”, “Otho Hey, Swapner Feriwala”, “Tomake Dekhechhilam”, “Shoponpure”, “Onek Notun Bondhu Hok”, “Hajabarala”, “Dui Kanur Upakhyan”, and “Aadhar Name”.
