From Our House Of Talent | 2nd Runner Up Of Talent Hunt | Meet Abhinav Poddar

“Writing, painting, singing- it cannot stop everything. Cannot halt death in its tracks. But perhaps it can make the pause between death’s footsteps sound and look and feel beautiful, can make the space of waiting a place where you can linger without as much fear. For we are all walking each other to our deaths, and the journey there between footsteps makes up our lives.”

Abhinav Poddar is from Siliguri , West Bengal and is staying in Chennai from past five years  and doing Masters in Technology in Civil Engineering . He is really passionate about singing and have sung few songs during his school life. Despite, being from a non-musical family, he decided to make singing his career. He secured 3rd position in the Talent Hunt Contest.

1. How is Chennai treating you and is it an interesting place to be in?

Yes, definItely Chennai  has given me everything.  I have been living here since five years now and it’s quite an interesting place to be in. Being a Bengali, it gives me immense pleasure to say that I have found another Bengali in Chennai. My music career kick started from Chennai only with the help of those people who have a huge knowledge of music. In case of my engineering career, I’ve managed to get good results.

I am a big fan of Kishore Kumar Sir and R.D Burman Sir, I have been listening to their songs since childhood days and want to go back to the golden era . Now, I like listening to Arijit Singh, Armaan Malik and many more. It’s my most awaited dream to collaborate with them later in my life. They are really doing a great job in their field and I am a big fan of their music.
