Sudipto Das & Aparajita Dutta

Sudipto Das was born in Calcutta in 1973 to a family which fled Bangladesh during the partition riots of 1947. He grew up listening to horrid stories of the partition, something which he has used extensively in his debut novel The Ekkos Clan, published in 2013. A violinist, trained in Western classical music, Sudipto debuted as a music composer in 2014, when he recreated Eastern European melodies of the 1940s for the War Musical Schweyk in the Second World War by Bertolt Brecht. An engineer by profession, Sudipto is a veteran in the Semiconductor Industry and an entrepreneur, having co-founded two successful startups. He is also a columnist and a speaker at TED events. Sudipto lives in Bangalore with his family. History, culture, language, writing and music are of special interest to him. Member of an amateur music band, Kohal, he also enjoys travelling.
