Our Magazine

In April, 2009, we launched a Bengali monthly magazine titled Bangla Street on the first day of Bengali calendar year 1416. The ceremonial opening was held on April 17, 2009, at Press Club, Kolkata, and was attended by many notable personalities.

Bangla Street Launch by Mahasweta Devi Mahasweta Devi, an eminent Indian writer, activist, Padma Bibhushan and Magsaysay awardee, graced the occasion as honourable Chief Guest.


The magazine was conceived as a platform to carry important works in the Bengali language as well as the best of contemporary foreign writings in translated form. It aimed at engaging Bengali people living all over the world and was published from Kolkata and London, simultaneously!

Bangla Street provided its readers with short stories, articles, essays, political features, film news, round-ups from villages, poetry, art and critiques by new as well as wellknown writers. It was also the only magazine to offer full-length novellas, and film and drama scripts with complete camera or stage directions.

Bangla Street logo In April, 2021, we decided to evolve with the fast-changing world by embracing the digital platform for distributing our magazine and rebranded Bangla Street as Bangla Street Online.


We started publishing the magazine on www.banglastreet.online. The first online edition was uploaded on Pohela Boishakh, 1428, the Bengali new year day. Since then, the latest edition is being uploaded on the 5th of each (Gregorian) month for our global readers. Print remains still part of the picture as the king-size annual festive edition titled Bangla Street Utsav. Below you can download sample pdf copies of Bangla Street Online and Bangla Street Utsav magazines.

Bangla Street is also open to widen its circulation by publishing it in English and other languages. It is not Bengal-specific and addresses a community which is more easily defined in terms of mind space rather than in purely geographical terms. Our readers have only one common denominator: they are sensitive and are looking for something more than what mainstream publishing can provide them.

Our Book Stall

Since 2014, we are setting up our bookstall at the International Kolkata Book Fair (formerly Calcutta Book Fair) every winter. It is the world's third-largest annual conglomeration of books after the Frankfurt Book Fair and the London Book Fair; and with a total footfall of over 2 million people, it is world's largest book fair by attendance. We exhibit and sell Bangla Street Utsav besides other books published by Look East Media at our stall. We also launch new books followed by book reading and QnA sessions with the authors. If you are in Kolkata during that time, we request the honor of your presence.
