Say No at the Right Time to Bring Positivity in Life | Somlata Acharyya Chowdhury | TEDxIIESTShibpur

It's not very common to hyphenate a musician and a lecturer in psychology but then Somlata Acharya Chowdhury was never an ordinary artist either.

Having trained under another eminent paragon of Indian classical music, Pandit Biresh Roy, she started out at the tender age of 9. Owing to her dulcet voice and mellifluous singing, she quickly rose to stellar levels of success in the Tollywood music industry. Debuting as a playback singer in the crossover film, Pretty Woman, she went on to lend her voice to over 40 films, producing 4 solo albums on the way and an endless string of exceptionally popular music. Her band Somlata and the Aces, has had humongous success with her maneuvering the microphone and performed to exuberant audiences across the globe. She is a lecturer in Psychology at the Asutosh College and an absolutely brilliant one at that.

Winner of a number of awards including the Mirchi Music Award for the Vocalist of the Year 2018, she was also bestowed with the Times Power Woman 2018 award owing to her colossal contributions to the industry and her stunning music skills.
She also runs a radio show as a celebrity RJ on Ishq FM called Confessions with Somlata.
