==History==<br />
On 13 December 2014, a tribute concert called ' Hawae Melechi Pakhna' was organised in memory of Kutty Mazumder, the vocalist of a renowned bangla band, Abhilasha. His band members Raja Mukherjee and Satyadev Barman along with Kaushik Chakraborty of Prithibi were instrumental in putting up the concert. The day witnessed a huge number of top brass bangla bands from Kolkata, India getting together to pay Kutty a tribute.<br />
<br />
Kaushik marked the day as 'Bangla Band Day' as the 13th was almost a renaissance for Bangla Band fraternity. It was quite a long period when so many bangla band musicians had come together. Not only that the musicians did not restrict themselves to their personal bands, but mix and matched to perform that night.<br />
