Chasing Light, Capturing Life

Tagore and the west

This music video by Md Abdulla Al Mamun Arin beautifully celebrates Rabindranath Tagore's connection with Western melodies. The medley features "Phuley Phuley Dholey Dholey," inspired by the Scottish folk song "Ye Banks and Braes," "Kotobaro Bhebechhinu," influenced by Ben Jonson’s "Drink to Me Only With Thine Eyes," and ends with "Purano Shei Diner Kotha," a nostalgic rendition inspired by "Auld Lang Syne." A heartfelt tribute to the blending of cultures through music.
