With Mother's Day just around the corner on May 11, celebrated singer Samina Chowdhury is offering something deeply personal — a song dedicated to her mother.

For the first time in her illustrious career, Samina has recorded a song dedicated to her mother, titled "Narir Bandhan", written by Kamrul Nannu and composed by Murad Noor. The music arrangement was done by Mushfiq Litu, while Samina herself directed the music video. 

The song is set to be released on May 11 across multiple streaming platforms and on her official YouTube channel, Samina Chowdhury Official.

Sharing her emotions about the project, Samina said, "It feels incredible to sing about my mother. By the grace of Allah, my mother is healthy and well. I was born into a musical family. Being able to honour her with my music is a joy I can hardly put into words. I dedicate this song to all mothers across the world."

Samina, who has previously collaborated with Murad Noor, spoke warmly about working together again. "Murad and I have created a number of songs. One of our previous songs, 'Meghborsha', was well-received. Murad is a talented composer. During one of our casual chats, we decided to create a song about mothers. I entrusted him with the entire project, and he lived up to my every expectation. This song has turned out beautifully."

Working with Samina apa has always been a blessing. She showers me with affection and support. Maintaining quality across every musical project is tough but some creations demand your very best, and this was one of those rare occasions. Kamrul Nannu wrote a truly beautiful song."
