Subroto Roy Chowdhury (Kolkata/Calcutta, West Bengal, India, January 29, 1943 - 22 May 2017) was a sitar player from India.

Reborn on May 12th 1956, when he plucked the strings of the sitar for the first time under the able tutelage of his first Guru, Shri Nirmal Chakravarty. Schooled in an English missionary institution and musically groomed in the classical vedic tradition (the oldest layer of Sanskrit literature and the oldest scriptures of Hinduism), Subroto combines the traditional approach of ancient India with the occidental spirit of enquiry, logical deduction and rational assimilation. An ever widening spectrum of divergent views and the inherent dichotomy of his psyche has led to the enlightenment of Subroto and his music.
