Arnob studied at Patha Bhavana and MFA in Kala Bhavana, Visva Bharati, Santiniketan.
He has released five solo albums. The first album was Chaina Bhabish and the second Hok Kolorob. Third and fourth are Doob and Rod Boleche Hobe respectively. A combination of poetic lyrics and sophisticated melodies has earned Arnob a large fan-base among Bangladesh’s music listeners.

Hok Kolorob is the second solo album of this celebrated fusion artist. This album consists of songs that Arnob had written during his years at Shantiniketan. This album contains lyrics written by his wife Shahana Bajpai, and the songs are comparatively more melodic and simple in structure compared to his debut album Chaina Bhabish, which had a lot of experimentation. Among the big hits of Hok Kolorob are: Tomar Jonno, Tui Ki Janishna 2, Hok Kolorob, Tor Jonno, Bhalobasha Tar Por, etc

Arnob released his third studio album Doob in April of 2008. He collaborated with Sahana Bajpai, Saad, the MAk, Zohad, Andrew, Idris rahman etc. His distinct style and indie tune is still the core of this album but the studio produced sound may have its fair share of criticism. In 2012 his album Rod Boleche Hobe was a big hit which spouned hits like Ke Ami, Chithi Pathao, Protiddhoni, Ami Jodi, Biri, Megh Fete Geche, Iniye Biniye.
Arnob released his fifth solo album "Adheko Ghume'' in June 2012 which has 12 Rabindra Sangeet.

ফাগুন, হাওয়ায় হাওয়ায় করেছি যে দান –
তোমার হাওয়ায় হাওয়ায় করেছি যে দান –
আমার আপনহারা প্রাণ আমার বাঁধন-ছেঁড়া প্রাণ ॥
তোমার অশোকে কিংশুকে
অলক্ষ্য রঙ লাগল আমার অকারণের সুখে,
তোমার ঝাউয়ের দোলে
মর্মরিয়া ওঠে আমার দুঃখরাতের গান ॥
পূর্ণিমাসন্ধ্যায় তোমার রজনীগন্ধায়

রূপসাগরের পারের পানে উদাসী মন ধায় ।
তোমার প্রজাপতির পাখা
আমার আকাশ-চাওয়া মুগ্ধ চোখের রঙিন-স্বপন-মাখা ।

তোমার চাঁদের আলোয়
মিলায় আমার দুঃখসুখের সকল অবসান ॥

ফাগুন, হাওয়ায় হাওয়ায় করেছি যে দান
I have made an offering to the wind in the month of Phagun

তোমার হাওয়ায় হাওয়ায় করেছি যে দান
The offering has been made to your wind's embrace

আমার আপনহারা প্রাণ আমার বাঁধন-ছেঁড়া প্রাণ
My soul is bound and released by my own desires and emotions

তোমার অশোকে কিংশুকে অলক্ষ্য রঙ লাগল আমার অকারণের সুখে
The unnoticed colors of your flowering trees have tinted my unanticipated happiness

তোমার ঝাউয়ের দোলে মর্মরিয়া ওঠে আমার দুঃখরাতের গান
My song of sadness rises and quivers with the sway of your trees

পূর্ণিমাসন্ধ্যায় তোমার রজনীগন্ধায় রূপসাগরের পারের পানে উদাসী মন ধায়
On the night of the full moon, my sad heart is attracted to the fragrant flowers of your beauty, across the ocean's edge

তোমার প্রজাপতির পাখা আমার আকাশ-চাওয়া মুগ্ধ চোখের রঙিন-স্বপন-মাখা
The wings of your butterflies inspire colorful dreams in my mesmerized eyes that gaze at the sky

তোমার চাঁদের আলোয় মিলায় আমার দুঃখসুখের সকল অবসান
By the light of your moon, all traces of my joy and sorrow merge
