The Ad Club COO Bipin R Pandit has been actively involved with doing musical nites for the last 23 years. Five years back, he had floated a group called Khumaar that renders old Hindi film songs. In these five years, segments such as Solos, Duets, Classical songs, Qawwalis, and Sufi music have been introduced to maintain interest.
Among the people attending these musical concerts have been corporate bigwigs, who expressed their passion about different genres of music.
Now, taking this musical journey forward, Pandit has come out with a book, titled ‘Khumaar’, which features articles by the top honchos of corporate India and the advertising industry on their favourite playback singers, lyricists, music directors and so on.
Some of the top names who have contributed to the book, include Piyush Pandey, Pradeep Guha, Bharat Dhabolkar, Ayaz Memon, MG Parameswaran, Nagesh Alai, Madhukar Sabnavis, Apurva Purohit, Paritosh Joshi, Priti Nair, CVL Srinivas, Subhash Kamath, Ashwin Deo, Hemant Kenkre, Ajay Kakkar, Ajay Chandwani, Charulata, Gokul Krishnamurthy, Narendra Kusnur, Rajiv Vijayakar, Chaitnya Padukone, Nandkishore Desai, Madan Sanglikar, Arjit Ray, Andee Hyderabadi, and Dipen Sheth, among others.
‘Khumaar’ will be launched on April 19, 2013 in Mumbai at a musical nite organised by Pandit.
