Popular musician Partha Barua sang a popular duet with veteran singer Apel Mahmud on the occasion of Independence Day.
The duo sang “Mora ekti phul ke bachabo bole juddho kori,” an iconic number signifying the 1971 Liberation War. The song was originally sung by Apel Mahmud and written by Gobinda Halder.
Country’s leading mobile phone operator, Teletalk has produced a video of the song under the title “Partha Barua featuring Apel Mahmud” which was published on YouTube recently.
Partha said: “I have added new dimensions to the tunes of this timeless track. I have lent my voice to the song alongside Apel bhai and we both performed in the video. I feel proud to be part of this. Thanks to Teletalk for such an initiative.”
This historic song of Liberation War was listed as the 7th among top 20 songs based on listeners’ choice in “Shorbokaler Shorbosreshthho Bangla Gaan,” produced by the BBC.
