    Early life

    Born on the New Year's Day of 1975, in Barasat, sub-urban Kolkata, in India, Dhritiman is the youngest of three siblings. His father, Mr. Sadhan Mukherjee and mother had been constant sources of inspiration for Dhritiman since his childhood, so much so that, quite unlikely for his time and upbringing, he was left to himself to choose his career or, rather, follow his passion.
