From Platform To Music Track:  A Star Is Born

From a railway platform in West Bengal to Bollywood, this is the story of Ranu Mondal's overnight rise to fame.

The singer stunned a passerby good samaritan when she was singing at Ranaghat railway station. He then posted a video on social media which went viral and caught the attention of music moguls.

Watch the woman in her 50s recording a song in a Mumbai studio with music director  Himesh Reshammiya for an upcoming film, ‘Happy Hardy and Heer’

 

Weeks back, I tweeted hoping that there would be a future for the gifted #RanuMondal, spotted on a train platform in #Bengal.#HimeshReshammiya gives her a new fairy tale life by getting her to sing in his upcoming movie.

What a moment it would be, if @mangeshkarlata met her!❤ pic.twitter.com/F2imC5RZva
