Maadhukari: Tell me about your childhood. Where and how did you spend your childhood?
He’s only 18, but Aneek Dhar is already a singing sensation / wonder boy, who was discovered at a popular talent show “Saregamapa”. At this age, he seems to be at par with the leading singers in the country, if not ahead. I wish him all the best. he’s simply spectacular!!
Aneek : I was born and brought up at Lake Gardens, Calcutta. We have a house there. Schooling,music,sports activities, friendship--all began there. My father is in medical profession. He is a psychologist and my mother is a housewife. We belong to a joint family. The family have all kinds of professionals like doctor, engineer, scientist etc. Since my childhood I have yearn for music. While my mother sang, I used to listen to her. In fact my mother started to train me with harmonium as I was growing up. It was somewhat a regular and formal training. At that time my family was facing some problems. Still I would like to say that I struggled a lot to establish myself as a singer. Truly speaking I started singing from childhood. To get training I used to meet many people. I learnt Rabindra Sangeet from Mr. Pramit Sen, the son of late Sagar Sen, an eminent singer of Rabindra Sangeet. In our locality Mr. Sudeep Roy, a disciple of late Manabendra Mukherjee( great singer of yesteryear) stays. He loves me very much
and trained me with the songs of late Manabendra Mukherjee,Late Shyamal Mitra and Manna De(all great singers) Mr Sen trained me also in Mr.Manna De's Classical Songs. At present I am getting training from Mr.Jayanta Sarkar.From him I am learning classical music. When I get chance I meet Mr. Ajay Chakraborty to get a few tips. He also loves very much. I call him uncle. Just I wish to meet Ustad Rashid Khan for once.
Maadhukari: You've not meet him yet!
Aneek: It has not happened yet. i have met all the people I love except Ustad Rashid Khan. Anyway I attended different competitions. I was a student of NavaNalanda. The school used to organize Nalandasree Competition. I always joined that and I used to achieve the top position every year and got Nalandrasree Award.
I used to be among top three positions. Sometimes I got eliminated too. One such competition was presented by Zee Bangla and produced by Prime Music. It was named Zee Bangla Golden Voice. Mr.
