Bhagyesh Marathe
Indian Classical Vocalist
Bhagyesh Marathe, born into a rich musical family and he has been lucky
to be a grandson of the legendary Indian classical vocalist Sangeet Bhushan
Pandit Ram Marathe.
● Music Training :
He started learning tabla at the age of 4 and continued for
almost 15 years with various gurus like Shri Prabhu Ghate, his uncle Shri Mukund
Marathe, Pt. Mukundraj Deo and Shri Gajanan Raul (disciple of Ustad Allarkha
Khan Sahib).
Bhagyesh completed his bachelor's degree in Information
Technology from Kishanchand Chellaram (Known as KC) College Churchgate, Mumbai.
At the age of 19, while completing his second year of graduation his father
encouraged him for a career in music. On his father’s advice and urge he started
listening to his grandfather's renditions and songs and many other Indian
classical vocalists.
He was mesmerized with Pt. Kumar Gandharva & his
grandfathers Gayaki (style of rendition) and he got so influenced that he
decided to take singing as his profession. He began learning music under the
guidance of his father Pt. Sanjay Marathe for 6 to 8 yrs. He further mastered
his talent further from Pt. Kedar Bodas at Dr. Gangubai Hangal Gurukul in Hubli.
Thanks to the family support he received, today he is happily pursuing his
dream.

apt and humble youth icon for talent, knowledge and inspiration to the youth
fraternity.
