The Hilsa Band is a podcast about Bengali migrants in NYC. As the name suggests ‘Hilsa’ is the fish that unites Bengalis of India and Bangladesh on either side of a man-made line.

I am an Indian Bengali of Bangladeshi heritage, who's lived in 7 cities in 3 different countries, and call both Kolkata and NYC home.

You might find a slice of your story in there. Who knows ? After all, we are all migrants from somewhere to somewhere.
