Aurthohin, Bangladesh's one of the top and fan-favourite bands, finally returned with a brand new music video "Amar E Gaan" Wednesday after six years. The band remained inactive for four years and has not released any new music videos in the last six years due to the physical condition of its founding frontman Saidus Salehin Khaled, also popularly known as Bassbaba Sumon. Sumon returned to the music scene last year and Aurthohin began performing in several concerts this year. The Aurthohin frontman said they are going to release their new album "Phoenix er Diary-1" this year and part two will be released next year.

The song, tuned by Sumon and written by Md Imtiazul Anwar and Sumon himself, has been garnering critical acclaim from the fans on social media since its release. "Amar E Gaan is not just a song. It's not just a music video. It is sheer love and respect to all Aurthohin fans for the unconditional love and support they have given us throughout our best and worst times," Aurthohin said. Tuesday, the band announced the release and details of Amar E Gaan at Samsung's BTI Landmark showroom in the capital's Gulshan Avenue. At the event, Sumon said: "We have not been together and created new music for almost four years. Creating new music from that state was the first challenge, as Aurthohin's songs have always been focused on melody and meaningful lyrics. We wanted to make the song in such a way that the listeners can relate the song to themselves." "I have been overwhelmed by the support of our fans, as I have recently returned to music from a challenging time in my life. From us, this song is a tribute to all of our fans and admirers," Sumon added. Read more: “Boyosh Holo Amar”: Bassbaba Sumon returns with new song

Popular Bangladeshi singer, lyricist, musician and the frontman of rock band Aurthohin, Saidus Salehin Khaled, also popularly known as 'Bassbaba' Sumon, made a glorious comeback to music again with his brand new single "Boyosh Holo Amar," released on his YouTube channel on Thursday night. With the slogan “Happiness is a choice and life is beautiful,” this song marks his comeback afterreceiving long-tenured treatment in Thailand and Dubai for five months. Written and tuned by Bassbaba Sumon himself, the song features guitarist Mahaan Fahim as the solo guitarist and the music producer. Ahnaf Salehin, son of Sumon, has also participated in the song with his whistling tune. Describing the song and the emotional journey behind it, Sumon wrote on his official Facebook profile on Wednesday: The song has no bass solo, startling lead, or caricature of drums. This is a track purely based on Mahaan's beautiful acoustic guitar playing upon my lyrics, altogether a simplistic presentation.” “Having said that, this song is about me slowly aging and being almost handicapped and bedridden for over two years. It's a song about me stumbling about in the dark and screaming in agony every night. More significantly, it's a song about me triumphing over adversity and reclaiming my way back to the light,” Sumon emotionally demonstrated his feelings regarding the single.
