After months of not hosting any in-person live event at its Dhanmondi campus due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, leading cultural institution Chhayanaut welcomed live audiences once again with its traditional Shuddhasangeet Utsab 1428 on Thursday.

This year's festival has been dedicated to Chhayanaut SangeetBidyayatan teachers, Madan Gopal Das and Satindranath Halder.
The festival welcomed the listeners at 4:30 pm on Thursday. Noted music maestros and singers including Khairul Anam Shakil, Rezoan Ali, Shekhar Mandal, Abhijit Kundu, among others, performed at the festival on Thursday till 10:30 pm.
On Friday, the first session of the concluding day's program will begin at 9 am and continue till 12 pm which will feature the performances of Alauddin Miah, Bijan Chandra Mistry and more.
