Around 12 years ago, I travelled for hours to a lesser known neighbourhood in Bangalore to find and interview Manna Dey. He lived on the first floor of an independent home and it was probably a rented space.and there were really no flourishes of fame and legendary success anywhere. This was a middle-class home with a showcase crammed with mementos if memory serves me right..a diwan and the usual paraphernalia of comfortable, no fuss living. Manna Dey was like that too. A man who was never loud, boisterous or eager to stand out. He liked to blend into life, seamlessly and harmoniously.
