The journey of Ronu Majumdar has been a phenomenal one. Right from his childhood days in Varanasi to his successful life in Mumbai, he has gone through a roller coaster ride in his life. He has been a part of Hollywood, Bollywood, and Indian classical music. Let’s catch a glimpse of bansuri artist Ronu Majumdar journey.

Ronu’s father was a homeopathic doctor by profession & a great oil painter of his time, but he used to play the flute as a hobby. Ronu’s father learned from Late Pandit Pannalal Ghosh, who was the pioneer of flute playing and introduced it into classical music. Ronu’s father was his first guru and later he became the disciple of Late Pandit Vijay Raghav Rao ji, the legendary flautist of all time.

Ronuji’s training in vocal music was done by Pandit Lakshman Prasad JaipurWaale. In 1980, he met Bharat Ratna Pandit Ravi Shankar Ji in the recording of the famous song “Atha swagatam, shubh swatagtam”, a welcome song composed for Asiad 82. Pandit Ravi Shankar Ji was delighted with Ronu’s musical abilities and he became a part of his orchestras, and popular albums like ‘Chants of India.’ with Gorge Harrison Ex-Beatles, Passages with Philipglass & much more. Since then he also started learning from Pt. Ravi Shankar Ji and it was during this period that Ronu ji’s personality groomed as a professional musician.
