Biswas was an accomplished singer with very similar vocal qualities and a strong theatrical personality with IPTA. The family is known to be reformers and have contributed to the upliftment of the societal challenges at the time. Her sons, Kumar Shankar Chakraborti and Jati Shankar Chakraborti among the four children, were particularly close their uncle. They were Georgeda's wards and were musically highly talented. They were trained by the master himself. Kumar Shankar succumbed to a heart condition at a very young age despite all efforts by Georgeda. Jati Shankar was known to have a very similar vocal quality as Debabrata Biswas. He did not pursue music professionally but more as a passion project. He was survived by his wife and two daughters. Georgeda's nieces were also very talented. The legacy of Debabrata Biswas lives one with his grand-children who have continued to build their lives with the performing arts. The legacy is more to do with the joy of the art and the creative process rather than just the fame and glory. Georgeda's personality, his honesty and his love for music made him a legend.
