For
someone like JANIVA (RUMPA), her foray into the world of music
was almost a forgone. Predestined conclusion.
Born
in Kolkata,her domestic ambience revolved around music. From the
tender age her young world of classical music is exposed to the
exponents of the Art. Under the able tutelage of her parents (Bapi
Roy and Sikha Roy). Janiva is introduced to the stage as early
eight, since then music became her passion, her aspiration, her
dream.
Having
completed her school education, Janiva(Rumpa) was invited to
Moscow. Her young shoulders now bore the responsibility of
popularizing Indian Classical music and Ghazals in a foreign
Land. Her favorite singer is Ghazal Samrat Jagjit
Singh. She has got lot of inspiration from him.
Her
return to India is marked by an extremely grueling schedule of
recordings for private cassettes as well as invitations from celluloid
world to star in feature films.
