Finally the wait is over. Composer-singer
Ruupa Raaman’s debut album Krisnaruupa was launched in a grand
affair in presence of musician-singers Hariharan, Lesle Lewis, Dr.Soma Ghosh, Subhankar Ghosh, Abu
Malik, Aishwarya Majmudar, Aajay K Chauhan, actors Anil George and
Buvnesh Shetty, artist Rakhi Baid, director Ashwini Sharma and her friends and friengels who contributed
to this album and many more at Tanishq Showroom, Andheri (West).
Ruupa Raaman who has brought out
over 200 classical albums, being the in the A&R department of EMI, has very
interesting fare to offer in Krisnaruupa. Inspired by various forms of Krishna
and blessed by the Krishna of Nathdwara temple, composer-singer Ruupa Raaman,
brings to you the melodious album Krisnaruupa. One of the songs comprises
of 108 names of the Lord among others.
Interestingly, Ruupa exercised
the crowdfunding method to generate partial funds for the album, adding on friends
and friengels as they call them contributing to make Krisnaruupa a success. Ruupa has managed to bring in over
2.5 lakh in hand, half the cost of her album, through Wishberry, a portal
that helps generate crowdfunding for young talent waiting in the wings due to
paucity of funds.
Krisnaruupa could be one of the
pioneering classical albums to actually generate crowdfunding. Generally, young
bands with contemporary music are known for looking for crowdfunding options.
For Ruupa, more than the funds, it is
the chance of “taking more and more people forward on the journey,” "It is
not easy today to bring out your own album, more so when it is devotional. We
were lucky, we got over 56 people who walked by us on our journey and
contributed to Krisnaruupa. I am fortunate that when our album comes out, there
are people looking forward to it. Otherwise, an album always is one person's
solo journey
