麻豆约拍

Mora Ekti Phulke Bachabo Bole Juddho Kori, arguably the song most associated with the War of Liberation, was written by Gobindo Haldar and composed by Apel Mahmood.

The song is about how the freedom fighters fought not only for the love of the nation but for independence of every person and thing in Bangladesh.

Renowned singer Apel Mahmood motivated many with his patriotic songs. As Apel himself says, music was a spiritual weapon, inspiring the freedom fighters to fight till the very end.

Asian Network spoke to Apel Mahmood at his home in Dhaka where he gave us a private performance of this most legendary song.
