Tribute to Bhupen Hazarika



The World Book Fair paid homage to iconic singer, poet, music composer journalist, author and film-maker- Bhupen Hazarika by releasing the book published by Spectrum called Bhupen Da: The Bard of Brahmaputra. Hazarika who sang of humanity and universal camaraderie died recently, leaving a haze of grief. The release of this book is a fitting tribute to the Assamese maestro who was admired and loved in not just India but the whole subcontinent.

 The book was launched as a hardcover by Shanta Sharabjit Singh, Vice Chairman of Sangeet Natak Academy. The paperback version is to follow up soon.
