Antara Mitra (born 10 July 1987) is an Indian Bollywood playback singer. She is noted for her wide vocal range and versatility. She has recorded songs for films and albums in different Indian Languages.
Career Antara Mitra was influenced early in her life by her aunt, who frequently sang on broadcasts of All India Radio. Her grandfather and parents were able to sing and play various instruments, and she credits this early exposure to music as influence in her career as a singer. During childhood, Mitra trained in traditional Bengali folk music and studied Hindustani classical music for approximately 10 years. In 2006, she decided not to take her medical entrance examination, and instead moved to Mumbai to pursue a music career. There, at the age of 18, she was selected as a contestant on the second season of Indian Idol. Mitra finished among the top five contestants on Indian Idol Season 2. She later appeared as part of the Bollywood team of vocalists on the Indian television reality show Junoon Kuchh Kar Dikhaane Ka. Her song “Kishori” was later featured in a promotional doodle series by the dairy brand Amul, which included imagery inspired by the iconic "Amul Girl" mascot from their long-running advertising campaign.
Music career She has sung in regional languages including Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi, Hariyanvi and Kannada.
In a 2010 interview with the Times of India, Mitra expressed gratitude to Music Director Pritam for being the first to believe in her talent, acknowledging that he had composed nearly every film song featuring her vocals during her initial decade in the industry. Mitra received positive reviews for her song "Bheegi Si Bhaagi Si," a duet with Mohit Chauhan from the Hindi film Rajneeti.
As of 2026, she is signed to the music label "TalentWala."
