Singer Asif Akbar. COURTESY
Just as the great war of liberation brought freedom on the one hand, it has taken away the intellectuals and relatives on the other. Many women have lost their husbands and children. Again, many women have given up their dignity. That is why March 25 is a gloomy night, a black night for the nation. March 25 is the birthday of singer Asif Akbar, the 'Prince of Music' of Bangladesh. So for the last three years Asif Akbar has not celebrated his birthday anymore. As usual, he has said that he will not celebrate his birthday this year.
Asif said, “For the last three years I have not been organising any celebration on my birthday. I don't even celebrate the day specially. March 25 is the black night of history. Many women have lost their husbands that night, many children have lost their parents, and many women have lost their dignity. The issue may not be taken seriously now, but ten years from now or fifteen to twenty years from generation to generation, people will know that Asif used to stay away from celebrating his birthday for the black night.”
Meanwhile, the song 'Bolona Bolona' sung by Asif and Dithi has been published on YouTube. This is the first time Asif and Dithi sang together. The song is written by Gazi Mazharul Anwar and composed by Jabed Ahmed Kislu.
Two musicians were killed in a road accident a few days ago. One is Partha and the other is Hanif. Both are the best drummers in the country from Cumilla. Asif is also very upset about the untimely demise of the two. According to Asif's commentary, Partha is his elder brother in Cumilla. And Hanif has grown up right in front of Asif's eyes.
Meanwhile, Asif has sung the song 'Just Remember' to the tune of Ovi Akash. The song is written by Pradeep Saha. Mushfiq Litu has arranged the music.
