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.

The lyrics of Arnob's song 'Shopno Debe Doob' possesses an indescribable depth of meaning and emotions. The song is about the melancholic beauty of life and the inevitability of dreams and hopes sinking into the darkness of the unknown. The first verse talks about the endless expanse of the sky, where even the stars seem to be at the bottom. It's a metaphor for the helplessness one feels when their aspirations are far out of reach. The second line further solidifies it by stating that the stars remain silent, no matter how much one begs for help. The next lines speak of immense darkness that engulfs everything and how dreams are bound to drown in it. Here, the reference to dreams sinking can represent the futility of hope in the midst of overwhelming darkness.
In the chorus, the singer explains how amidst the deep and impenetrable darkness, there creeps in a faint light that promises a new dawn. The contrast of the pitch-black darkness juxtaposed with hopeful light is a brilliant metaphor for the human experience, where the triumph of light over darkness is often unexpected and fleeting. The following verse talks about the various colors that dominate the night sky, giving it a dramatic effect. The poet says that even amidst the black, he finds colors, perhaps representing the moments of beauty that can be found even in the depths of sadness. The last two lines speak of the singer's acceptance of the current situation, where he chooses to live every moment and experience life wholeheartedly, without worrying about the uncertain future, symbolized by the 'life droplets trickling away.'
Overall, Arnob's 'Shopno Debe Doob' is an evocative representation of the paradoxical nature of life, where the darkness of the night represents despair and the light of dawn represents hope, and how they both depend on each other for their existence.

Amar Sonar Moyna Pakhi 2 Lyrics (আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি ২) By Samz Vai
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি রে
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি
আমার জন্য কাইন্দা কাইন্দা,
ভাসায় দুটি আঁখি (২ বার)
প্রবাস জীবন কষ্ট ভিশন,
মনে ব্যথা খুব
সোনা পাখির জন্য সদায়,
ধরপর করে বুক (২ বার)
দুখের পরে সুখ আসবে,
সেই আশাতে থাকি
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি রে
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি
আমার জন্য কাইন্দা কাইন্দা,
ভাসায় দুটি আঁখি
আলতা, চুরি চাই না কিছুই,
চাই না দামি শাড়ী
আর থ্যাকেন না দূর প্রবাসে,
ফিরা আসেন বাড়ি (২ বার)
ঋণের বুঝা মাথায় নিয়া,
গিয়াছেন প্রবাসে
দেনা পাওনা শেষ হইলেই,
ফিরা আইসেন দেশে (২ বার)
দুখের পরে সুখ আসবে,
সেই আশাতে থাকি
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি রে
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি
আমার জন্য কাইন্দা কাইন্দা,
ভাসায় দুটি আঁখি
আপনার মুখটা না দেখিলে,
পাড়ি না ঘুমাইতে
আপনার কথা না শুনিলে,
পাড়ি না যে খাইতে (২ বার)
মাঝে মধ্যেই ইচ্ছে করে,
সবকিছু যাই ছাড়ি
আপনি কি চান আপনার জন্য,
কাইন্দা কাইন্দা মরি (২ বার)
দুখের পরে সুখ আসবে,
সেই আশাতে থাকি
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি রে
আমার সোনার ময়না পাখি
আমার জন্য কাইন্দা কাইন্দা,
ভাসায় দুটি আঁখি।।
