Kabir Suman
Kabir Suman (born 1950), is a Kolkata-based modern Bengali singer-songwriter, guitarist, and poet. He changed his name from Suman Chattopadhaya to Kabir Suman (Bangla: কবীর সŕ§ŕ¦®ŕ¦¨) in the early 2000s, when he became a Muslim in order to marry the Bangladeshi singer Sabina Yasmin (he was already married to his German wife and polygamy is prohibited in India except amongst Muslims, plus Muslims are not allowed to marry non-Muslims).
