Born on Halloween, Arnie B got his start in music in the streets of Calcutta, India. He comes from a long line of musical artists as his grandfather was a noted playback singer and actor in 40s and 50s Indian cinema. This went down the line to his father and aunts. His mother was also classically trained, so it was only natural for Arnie B to be keeping time at the dinner table while the family listened to music over a meal.
