UnTold Conversations was conceived as an intimate evening of music, poetry, and conversations, presented in the format of a narrative performance. In the programme, Arijit appeared in the role of the storyteller, while the songs were performed by Sruti. The two main characters in the story were played by Raja and Shrabana, with Snehenndu on keyboards, adding a live musical layer to the presentation.
The event was held at Himur Heshel, and the biggest support behind the entire programme was Sutapa Barua, who is also popularly known as “Himu”. The production was presented under Raja’s Kobitar Studio. The evening was designed as a tightly structured presentation where storytelling, music, and performance flowed together to create a unified narrative experience.
The core flow of the programme revolved around two characters and their story, which was narrated by Arijit as the storyteller. At different moments, music and songs were introduced to carry the emotions of the story forward. The musical selection included modern Bengali songs, Rabindra Sangeet, traditional compositions, and songs by Suman, creating a rich blend of familiar and evocative sounds. The entire programme was designed as a compact performance of approximately forty-five minutes, curated specially for the space at Himur Heshel. The evening concluded with tea, coffee, and snacks hosted by Himur Heshel.
The audience mainly consisted of people associated with the cultural field and event productions. Among those present were Luna Chatterjee, Sanchita Kushary Bose, along with several invited guests connected with cultural events, productions, and creative initiatives. Overall, the programme was intentionally short, tight, and immersive, designed as a fusion of people, performance, and narrative storytelling — which is the core idea behind Golper Moto.
The concept of the show was built around a love story that unfolds through narration. As the storyteller, Arijit narrates the story of a couple who used to wander through different parts of Kolkata — watching theatre, visiting cafés and restaurants, and living a simple yet deeply affectionate relationship. However, something unexpected happens between them, and they become separated.

The entire narrative is presented as if a conversation is still continuing between the two main characters, Raja and Shrabana. Their voices are heard through the storytelling, while I remain the one searching for them, speaking on their behalf. The narration carries the feeling that their story is unfinished, and that somewhere in the city their memories still exist.
The performance ends with a note of longing — a thought that perhaps someday, in some unknown corner of Kolkata, the storyteller may meet them again. That sense of searching, memory, and unfinished conversation is the essence of Golper Moto – UnTold Conversations.
