1 MINUTE PLEASE!
Pantha Kanai is one of a kind, when it comes to defining personalities and musicians in Bangladesh. Not only is he a fantastic singer, he is also a drummer and rhythm programmer. His performance with Arnob and friends is left incomplete without a soulful folk song or a mesmerising old Bengali film song. Recently, he has been using the social media to brainstorm ideas for young women on how to protect themselves from harassers on the streets. "If pepper sprays are unavailable," he writes on one of his status messages, "use your body sprays or deodorants. They work equally well."
Pantha Kanai shares some of his bizarre opinions with the Star Weekend.
