 This proved to be a major success and Hemanta's composition style changed noticeably for many of his future films in Bengal such as "Baghini", and "Balika Badhu".In Bengali films "Manihar" and "Adwitiya", both of which were major musical as well as commercial successes, his compositions had a light classical tinge.In 1961, for commemorating Rabindranath Tagore's birth centenary, Gramophone company of India featured Rabindrasangeet by Hemanta in a large portion of its commemorative output.
