'Hridoye Ekattur' : Documentary programme on Channel i

A scene from the documentary

Mahmud is widely known for his timeless music composition, Amar Bhaier Rakte Rangano Ekushey February, Ami ki bhulitey pari? The song, which commemorates the martyrs of the Language Movement, has secured him a unique position in the hearts of the Bangladeshis. He was honoured with several national awards. In addition, he actively supported the Freedom Fighters. This led to his arrest by the Pakistani Army from his residence on August 30, 1971.

The show features the contribution of Mahmud during 1971 and an interview session with the relatives and friends of Shaheed Altaf Mahmud.
