A Bangladeshi singing couple have launched an album of Rabindranath Tagore's songs to pay tribute to the Nobel laureate ahead of his 150th birth anniversary.
Sajed Akbar and Salma Akbar launched the album 'Tumi Amar Chiro Kaaler' here Saturday, April 10. 'The 10 songs in the album are mostly Tagore's numbers written on love, nature and puja-parban,' Sajed Akbar said at the launch.
'In 2011, everyone will be celebrating the 150th birth anniversary of Tagore; the album has been released as a tribute to the kabi guru,' he said.
