If you have landed on this page and reading this without leaving, anyone would tell you are a music enthusiast and more likely a singer of Bollywood songs. You would agree, singing Bollywood songs in their closest form requires years of training and riyaaz in classical music. Does that mean someone without that training will not be able to do justice ? Bandishi Bollywood strongly believed that the gap could be bridged.
BB created a framework which distills the essence of a long term classical music training and infuses it within the nuanced learning of the art of Bollywood singing such that aspirants can hone their skills within a much compact duration.
Bandish is a small composition in verse in Hindustani Classical music that brings out the chalan of a raaga which forms the foundation for most Bollywood songs. The marriage of the two is Bandishi Bollywood. BB is here to coach anyone who wants to improve, collaborate with who wants to join hands to make it bigger and create content for a shared knowledge-base for every enthusiast.
