Background


On April 13, 1971, vocalist Anshuman Roy, lyricist Gouriprasanna Majumdar, vocalist Dinendra Chowdhury and Upen Tarafdar who was producer of Akashbani Kolkata were sitting and chatting over tea at a tea shop located near a movie theater called Padmashri in Kolkata. At that time they were discussing the situation in East Pakistan during the 1971 war. During the chat, Upen Tarfdar played 7 March Speech of Bangabandhu on the tape recorder to everyone. He then expressed his desire to play a song during the broadcast of the speech from radio station due to its short length.[4] Then Gouriprasanna Majumdar wrote the lyrics. Anshuman Roy then decided to sing a song based on the lyrics, which he composed himself.[1]


Broadcast and record


After the song is completed, Anshuman sang the song at the residence of Devdulal Banerjee, a news reader of Akashvani at Purndas Road.[5] While singing, Upen Tarafdar recorded the song using a spool recorder. He decided to play the song from Aakashvani Kolkata's radio station during the broadcast of the speech at "Sangbad Bichitra" program in the same day the song was recorded. Nine days after its airing, the song was officially recorded at a studio named Hindusthan Record. At that time the song, directed by Dinendra Chowdhury, was recorded separately in English.[1]
