Pradip Chatterjee is a founder member of the Bengali band Moheener Ghoraguli. He is the younger brother of Gautam Chatterjee.

Also known as Bula, Pradip is a flutist and vocalist. An engineering graduate from the prestigious Bengal Engineering College, Shibpur, he joined the Calcuttan engineering firm M.N. Dastur, after the break-up of Moheener Ghoraguli. During the course of his service with the company (where he still works as a Chief Engineer), he travelled over many places from Orissa to Libya, but his quest for world-music was never deterred, but enriched by this varied experiences.

Currently, he resides in Kolkata, with his wife Sharmistha and daughter Anka and son Ritoban.
