“Pritam da is a hit-maker. The songs that he has given me in the past have well served as my business card."

Bringing together 19 performers to showcase 10 original songs over a 10-week window, Pritam’s Roposo Jamroom is set to serve as a ticket to Bollywood, and other music-making arenas for composers who may have not otherwise found an inroad. Akriti Kakar, one among the performers set to showcase the work of composer Bhanu, agrees that the platform may shave a decade off a composer’s struggle to find a foothold in the industry. 


“It takes years or decades to get a break. But, under Pritam da’s mentorship, the composers have shown that they have the ability to showcase their skills, song, and voices. Some of the songs have also been penned by the composers. Without a platform like this one, how would you suppose a debutant composer gets access to singers like Sonu Nigam? This, I believe, is the most special thing about this platform.”

While independent artistes have flourished amid the pandemic, the phenomenal music being churned out by the newly established labels of the film music industry’s crème de la crème — Pritam, Salim Suleiman, and Amit Trivedi, among others — has only served as testimony of their superlative talent. The recently unveiled glimpse of this show also promises to introduce sounds that can provide a much-needed jolt to the music landscape. 

“Pritam da is a hit-maker. The songs that he has given me in the past have well served as my business card.

The song that I have rendered is beautiful. I’m sure people will latch onto it like they would a film song,” she signs off.
