Pandit Prasun Banerjee (bengali: প্রসুন ব্যানার্জী  ) (c. Aug 15, 1926 – 22 March 1997) was one of the foremost disciples of Ustaad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan, and was hailed as the torchbearer of the Patiala-Kasur Gayaki immortalized by Ustaadji. It was the Ustaad’s personal wish to teach Prasun, and the result was the so-called “Prasun-flavour“. To listeners, it was more of a new ‘ang’, bearing a touch of silken and fine, and those who heard it once could not forget it for the rest of their lives. He married Meera Banerjee (nee Meera Chatterjee), who is hailed as the "Empress of Patiala Gayaki".
