Although he gave good music to many art movies, he never came to main-stream commercial movies, therefore, his success was limited.

He won the National Film Award for Best Music Direction for Tamas in 1988, and was awarded the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award in 1989.[1] Padmashree for 2012 has been conferred upon him in field of Art – Music.[ Read more on Last.fm.
