Celebrated Nazrul Sangeet exponent Ferdous Ara faced an unexpected exclusion during Awami League’s tenure. For the past 15 years, she was barred from performing on Bangladesh Television (BTV) and Bangladesh Betar. Recently, however, she made a long-awaited return to these two state-run platforms.
Officials of Bangladesh Betar, the country's oldest electronic mass media outlet, gathered to explore the possibility of reinstating its Urdu service. A representative from Betar confirmed that the meeting occurred last Thursday.
"I was banned for a full seven years due to my political identity. Although it may seem irrelevant, the Covid pandemic taught me a lot. I realised that one can survive with fewer possessions. Excessive food and luxuries are unnecessary, and true peace comes from standing closely with people in need," shared Kanak Chapa.
This informative and social awareness-based drama, comprised of six episodes, serves as a promotional endeavour by the Population, Health, and Nutrition Division of Bangladesh Betar.
Runa Laila, a renowned singer in the subcontinent, recently lent her voice to Bangladesh Betar after a hiatus of 13 years. She recorded the song "O Brishti Tumi" written by Suman Sardar, and composed by Sadek Ali for Bangladesh Betar's Transcription Service. Prior to this, she collaborated with children on a song for Channel i, tuned by Sadek Ali's tune. The recording for "O Brishti Tumi" took place on February 29 at the Drama Studio of Transcription Service in the capital.
To pay respect to the cultural activists, Bangladesh National Museum felicitated 86 artistes and technicians on Sunday who risked their lives to inform and uplift the freedom fighters and people during the War.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, in an address to the nation marking two years of Awami League government, seeks all-out cooperation of the countrymen to turn Bangladesh into a prosperous and developed country by 2041.
