Parameswar Das, father of Debasish said, his boy has learnt the art of playing the khol while he was one and half year old, by imitating it from his granny. Especially, he is keen to play the Khol with the devotional songs basing on lord Rama and Krishna in various occasions. His grandpa Bhagaban Das said, Deba is blessed with the art since he has acquired mastery over the Khol only gazing the finger movements of professional players. “Deba from his very infancy, was attracted towards the musical instrument while I play it with Hare Krishna, Hare Rama Mahamantra in the Astaprahari yagnas and Nama sankirtans”, he added.
