In 1995 Gautam Chattopadhay wanted to do first Bengali Song concert. He got immediate response from Jadavpur University Student's union. In march '95 when the inter college cultural festival was happening, Gautam was requested to do a live performance. He took the challenge and as usual, Bengal saw something which till date nobody ever dared to repeat "SOMO SAMAYIK BANGLA GANER CONCERT" at the Jadavpur University OAT.

All the new generation musicians who performed in the Abar Bochhor kuri poray album were given the opportunity to perform.... While the singers and musicians were enjoying the stage performing, at the back side, 6 huge canvas was kept and Bengal's one of the most famous contemporary painter was depicting the meaning of the songs live on the canvas.

Each of the Canvas later on was donated to Jadavpur University Student's Union with an autograph of Gautam and Rathin.

In this concert few members of Original Mohineer Ghoraguli was also present like Abraham Majumder with his young students of Kolkata Music Academy, Tapas Das, Pradip Chattopadhyay, and Raja Banerjee.

Monida's last live performance was at Kalyani University in Jan 1999, along with Subrata Ghosh of Garer Math, Neel, Bonny & Dwide of the then Krosswindz and the live sound mixing was done by Chhoton (founder member of Chandrabindo) a die-hard follower and inspirer of Subrata & Monida.
