Thakish Pashe" in 2016 which was initiated by Geet Entertainment by bringing together Ujjaini and Rupankar Bagchi, the best names in Bengali music to recreate the magic of the old times in a new age as the songs of the album had a beautiful melodious feel of the old times to them and also, it was another attempt to relive the time without digital piracy and promote original music by releasing it only on physically available CDs.
