An evening with expatriate singer Moureen Rahman
Deputy Minister for land Ministry Ruhul Kuddus Dulu inaugurated the programme. After her first two Bangla numbers- Hemanta Mukharjee's Nijhumo shondhyay pantho pakhira and Chitra Singh's Amar chokher joler majhe- she started to perform Hindi numbers. One must agree that the Hindi numbers suited her nasal voice much more than the Bangla ones.
Settled in Australia with her parents for the last fourteen years, Moureen bore the Bangali culture at heart. She learned Bangla songs from many prominent artistes including Manna Dey. She was nominated as the best singer of the sub-continent at the Multicultural Music Competition in Australia. She also performed with many reputed artistes of the sub continent and now she aspires to become a successful singer.
