Sourav Ganguly brought celebrities on 23rd October, 2013. Singer Sidhu of Cactus Band, Babul Supriyo, singer Usha Utthup, singer Subhamita and others graced the occasion.
All the singers were very famous in their own esteem. Sourav Ganguly asked Babul Supriyo about his recent Bengali album based on folk songs. Babul Supriyo said that the folk songs are known to everyone. They have the smell and fragrance of the soil. He recorded the popular songs like “shundari kamala naache”, “amae dubai li re”, and other songs which Bengali are called prachalito pallisangeet. He is very confident that the songs will be loved by the audience.
Subhamita was shown a clipping from the film Pyaasa. Geeta Dutt’s song “jane kya maine kaha” was picturised on Wahida Rehman. Sourav Ganguly asked Subhamita to sing the Bengali version of the same song. Subhamita sang SD Burman’s song “mono dilo na bodhu”.
In the slog over round, Sidhu gave the maximum number of answers and became the champion of the show. Usha Utthup was asked by Sourav Ganguly to sing a song. She sang the song “senorita” from the film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. Sourav Ganguly danced in the song. He said, he had run Zee Bangla Dadagiri Program for 3 seasons now. None of the celebrities had been successful to make him dance. Usha Utthup was the first person.
Usha Utthup said that she had travelled to Dubai in a flight few years back. Incidentally Sourav Ganguly was also travelling in the same flight. The air hostess behaved very well with Usha Utthup. After that the air hostess said please introduce herself to Sourav Ganguly. Sourav Ganguly anchored the program very well.
