Following this, Godhulibela Music, the music house which created the remixed version of the song, recently gave Bhuban a sum of Rs 3 lakh. The move came after many social media users questioned how the poor peanut seller, the original creator of the song, was not getting the credit he was due. Though he became a household name, his financial situation didn’t improve at all, and no one extended help to him. Before this, the West Bengal police also felicitated him for his talent. He has also been invited to a reality show directed by Sourav Ganguly.
