“Baundule” by the sensational Shaan is a treat to the ears

Baundule marks the 3rd episode of Oriplast Originals, Season 1 

Kolkata, 26th July 2019 – Oriplast Originals is all set with its 3rd episode which has been launched on SVF Music today. The melodious feel-good number called ‘Baundule’, sung by Shaan & composed by Bollywood music director – Arko (Arko Pravo Mukherjee) is a mix of folk-reggae which brings out a distinctive style, not popularly used in film music.  Arko himself also sings with Shaan in the music video establishing their first collaboration with each other along with the meeting of two artists of contrasting musical styles.  

The literal translation of ‘Baundule’ is vagabond. The lyrics of the song denotes the denouncing of materialism, basically, a satire on our social structure. 

Jubilant on working with Arko in Oriplast Originals, Shaan exclaimed, “This is a first song for Arko! I’ve been a silent admirer of his work and when he made me hear Baundule, I was totally floored. Absolutely loved the free-flowing composition, the folk reggae vibe and the lyrics. Arko is a genuine talent and he allowed me so much freedom to express myself. Had a great time singing with him. My best wishes with Oriplast Originals and SVF Music!” 

Arko, who is equally happy about the song getting a platform like Oriplast Originals, said, “It’s my first association with SVF music and I am glad to be a part of Oriplast Originals which is Bengal’s Biggest Music Collaboration ever. Baundule, my first song in this season, is special in many ways.  First, it’s essence that is completely different from usual Bollywood or Tollywood tracks. Second and importantly, Shaan! Composing for him and singing along with him is really very special and something I wanted to do for a long time.” 
Arko has made his name in Bollywood for giving music in around 30+ films including “Nazm Nazm” (Bareilly Ki Barfi), “Allah Wariyan” (Yaariyan), “Aaj Phir Tumpe Pyar Aya Hai” (Hate Story 2) and many more.
