Having been born in a musical family, Kajal grew up in a musical ambience. Since her 5 yrs. of age and school education, Kajal was tutored in Sitar by Sri N. Goswami and Sri R. Sen of AIR (Cal). Acclaimed as one of the few foremost performers of her almamater, Kajal completed her Graduation and Post-graduation programmes in Instrumental Music (Sitar) as topper in both and received a special training from Prof. S. Mishra of Visva Bharati (Music College). later, on the basis of 'National Scholarship' of the then Ministry of Education, Kajal came under the tutelage of (late) Pandit DHRUBATARA JOSHI, the then Professor and Dean of Visva Bharati (Music College), who was himself the Dhrubatara (Pole Star) in the galaxy of Indian Classical Music. Kajal believes in modernity firmed on traditional base and flowers the same in her Sitar rendering as well. Her command on Aalaap, Vistar, Jod with excellent Meend work, innovative Taankaari and Layakaari and astonishing jhaalaa are the expressions of her mature imagination. Her melodious performance with commitment towards the purity of raagas through the characteristic Baaj of IMDADKHANI GHARANA reminds of her long tedious and scientific taalim. Kajal, during 10 yrs of her stay in abroad (Muscat, Oman), had not only taught and performed Sitar recitals but succeeded in popularizing Indian Classical Music over there. On return, Kajal has been selected by the INDIAN COUNCIL OF CULTURAL RELATIONS (ICCR) as their enlisted artiste. Kajal has been consistently presenting her innovative performances through AIR (Cal) and Television for last more than 20 yrs. She also presented her recital in many prestigious conferences.
