Excerpts:

Shruti: You are considered to be one of the best DJ in Switzerland, how do you feel about it?

DJ Indra: A DJ is just like any other musician and there’s no formula as such unless your music sounds good for the audience who are here at the party. And it is purely the art of mixing. And this is even complicated. The best DJ in the world can’t win over an audience determined to be hostile for some reason at the party.

Shruti: Please tell us something about you: your education, career, hobbies, dreams.

DJ Indra: I am a computer engineer by education and this was my profession till 2011. I am from Uttarpara in Hooghly district in West Bengal. I am still a 100% Bengali at heart and mind and I wish to remain so throughout my life. I am in Switzerland since 2008. And I am a full-time DJ in Switzerland since 2011. I love DJing. Besides this I love hiking and photography and travelling. Spain is my best international tourist destination and Darjeeling being the best domestic tourist destination.

Shruti: Please share your DJing experience in Switzerland?

DJ Indra: I was a House DJ with 250 people at Cognizant party when India won Cricket World Cup 2011. After that happened Maharaja Night in 2019 and it was Switzerland’s one of the biggest Indian Bollywood event. I, along with three other DJs, could manage to entertain a crowd of more than 2000 people. It was an amazing experience altogether. I am DJ in Switzerland since 2011 and I do 7 to 8 events in a year. I have also had my events in Spain and Barcelona for my corporate clients. I always prefer to have a min crowd size of 100 in any party and I have already done an open-air party with more than 5000 people. I do always prefer high energy big crowd in my event.

Shruti: How come you changed your career from a Tech professional to an entertainer as a DJ? What keeps you motivated and going as a DJ?

DJ Indra: I got my first break as a DJ with Cognizant, my employer in Switzerland in 2011. It was a House DJ party with 250 crowd at Cognizant when India won Cricket World Cup 2011. I told you earlier that DJing is my passion. My dream is to spread positivity and love and bring people together at one place through art, music, creativity and new ideas. And this is what I am trying to do since 2011 as a professional DJ. One of the biggest dreams of mine is to do Open Air Bollywood DJ event. I want to bring out a fusion of Bengali, Hindi, English and European music to cater to the global demand. And these things have kept me motivated.

Shruti: What are the challenges you face as a DJ in the industry?

DJ Indra: The best DJ in the world can’t win over an audience determined to be hostile for some reason at the party.

Shruti: You are a Bong and did you ever think of making a career in Bengali DJ fraternity? How do you see the career as a Bengali DJ?

DJ Indra: Why not? I would love to do a DJ event with Bengali songs. Yes, I can see there is a big prospect of DJing Bengali songs mainly because of the diverse nature of music it has.
