मधुबंती बागची

Madhubanti Bagchi is an Indian playback singer and composer trained in Hindustani classical music. Raised in Balurghat, West Bengal (her family later moved to Kolkata), she began training in khayal from an early age under Agra gharana exponent Subhra Guha, and also studied thumri under Purnima Chowdhury. She additionally holds academic degrees in electronics and instrumentation engineering and in laser and optical science.

Before moving into Hindi cinema, Bagchi was a member of the Bengali band Mrittika and began receiving Bengali playback assignments from 2013. She relocated to Mumbai in 2018 after being contacted by composer M. M. Keeravani's office, and has since recorded for composers including Pritam, Amit Trivedi, Sachin–Jigar, Debojyoti Mishra, Shekhar Ravjiani and Shantanu Moitra.

She recorded for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's album Sukoon and the series Heeramandi (2024), including the song "Nazariya Ki Maari." Her mainstream breakthrough came with "Aaj Ki Raat" from Stree 2 (2024), composed by Sachin–Jigar, which became a major chartbuster. Other notable songs include "Uyi Amma" (Azaad), the title track of Loveyapa, and "Galatfehmi" (Nadaaniyan).
