Palash Sen is an Indian singer, songwriter, musician, composer, physician, director and actor.[1] He is known as the founder and frontman of India's Rock/Pop band Euphoria.[2][3][4]

Early life and education

Born in a family of doctors, he comes from a Baidya Brahmin family of Rajvaidyas (Sen Sharma) and is the 17th generation physician of his family. He was born in Lucknow, brought up in Delhi. Earlier, he used to stay in Connaught Place's Railway Colony and Srinagar.[5]

He did his schooling from St. Columba's School, Delhi. He was active in theatre and singing right from his school days and that's where he realised his singing capabilities. Thereafter he studied medicine at the University College of Medical Sciences (UCMS) and Guru Teg Bahadur Hospital, New Delhi, and received his M.B.B.S. and M.S. in Orthopedics.[5]

Career

While in college, Sen founded his band Euphoria. He had started composing songs from in college days and was writing them in English. His first composition is believed to be 'Heaven on the Seventh Floor' which was an ode to his college hostel room, on the seventh floor. After finishing college, Sen met DJ Bhaduri, and their friendship took off instantly. The duo have been working together ever since, and Sen regards DJ as the backbone of Euphoria. Euphoria's first release, 'Dhoom Pichuck Dhoom,' was a major commercial hit and received rave reviews from the critics worldwide.[6][7]

In 2022, Palash Sen appeared on Jay-Ho! The Jay Kumar Show and shared that he's the 17th generation doctor and musician in his family. He also talked about the origins of his band, Euphoria. He said back in 1988, a group of medical students in Delhi formed a rock band to impress girls. Over time, Euphoria evolved into a Hindi fusion rock group and he is the lead vocalist of that band.[8]

Euphoria went on to become noted Indian band, with five hit studio albums, one compilation and seventeen music videos. Sen's Bollywood debut came with Filhaal... (2002) directed by Meghna Gulzar, which also starred Tabu and Sushmita Sen. Thereafter, he appeared in "And It Rained" segment of anthology film, Mumbai Cutting (2008).
