Kalpana Patowary is an Indian playback and folk singer from Assam. She sings in 30 languages and has many folk and popular songs to her credit, while Bhojpuri music has been her most dedicated foray.[4][5] In his book, Cinema Bhojpuri, Avijit Ghosh lauds Patowary for her "remarkable contribution" to Bhojpuri film music. "Gifted with a rich, powerful and sensuous voice, the singer from Assam is almost considered mandatory for any film's score," she writes.

Early life and background[edit]

" Music barons in India were left gaping when Kalpana Patowary, a singer of Indian folk music, was signed on by British recording company Virgin EMI Records in April. They were all the more surprised to see the soaring international demand for her Bhojpuri music album with songs about migration. It seems Bhojpuri folk songs on migration are witnessing resurgence on an unexpected scale."[6]

Patowary was born in a Yogi-Nath family of Nath samradaya community in Barpeta district in Assam.[7] A graduate in English literature, Patowary is an alumnus of Cotton College of Guwahati. Trained in Kamrupiya and Goalporiya folk music by her folksinger father Sri Bipin Nath Patowary, Kalpana started to publicly perform at the tender age of 4 with her father and is also trained as Sangeet Visharad in Indian classical music from Bhatkhande Music Institute University, Lucknow.[8] She sings many forms of Bhojpuri folk music including Purvi, Pachra, Kajri, Sohar, Vivaah geet, Chaita, and Nautanki.[9]

Patowary has worked little on the works of Bhikhari Thakur and has released an album commemorating his life and work.[10]

In 2013, Patowary made an appearance in a documentary film, Bidesia in Bambai. Released on 8 December 2013, it is a look at Mumbai through the lens of the migrant worker and his music.[12]

She was invited to perform on a 15-day tour in four Latin American countries presented by the Ministry of Cultural Affairs on the occasion of Indian Arrival Day.[citation needed]

Patowary is the first woman to record and sing in the Chhaprahiya Purvi style.[13] Prior to her work, Purvi was a male preserve.

Patowary also made her acting debut in the Bhojpuri movie, Chalat Musafir Moh Liyo Re playing the role of Janki, co-starring opposite Dinesh Lal Yadav.[14][15]

She also participated in the reality show Junoon - Kuchh Kar Dikhaane Ka (2008) on NDTV Imagine.
