It is rather telling of the people when the army has to show up because of how people behave at a concert. “They brought an international band to a mall to perform,” said Sakib, who had attended the concert with high hopes. “It was a total joke. Organisers started taking selfies with the band mid-show, while Jal had to ask 20 times for a light to be turned off.”
The night was a celebration of rock music, marking the 20th anniversary of Jal's debut album "Adat", and the gathering of legends. Scroll through the album to catch glimpses of the night.
Mumtaz spoke with palpable excitement about returning to Bangladesh. "We are going to perform in Bangladesh after over a decade," he said, his eyes twinkling with nostalgia. "All Jal fans are probably grown up now, like me," he added with a chuckle. "But still they remember all the songs, it's so overwhelming for us to come here again and receive such a heartwarming welcome."
From “Aadat” to “Sajni”, Pakistani band Jal has given audiences numerous popular songs which have left quite an impression on audiences. Earlier, the band first came to Dhaka in 2010 to perform, now after 14 years, they are set to return.
