‘Coke Studio,’ the musical franchise, has finally begun its voyage in Bangladesh. On Monday, it was officially unveiled with a big opening ceremony at a 5-star hotel in the capital.
Arnob, Tahsan, Momotaz Begum, and Ankhi Alamgir were among the many celebrities that attended the star-studded event.
KM Khalid, State Minister for Cultural Affairs, and Zunaid Ahmed Palak, State Minister for ICT Division, attended the ceremony as distinguished guests.
Music was one of the key and powerful sources of inspiration for the Bengali nation in numerous democratic activities, including the Language Movement of 1952 and the Great Liberation War of 1971, according to UNB.
“February is the month of our glorious Language Movement, and our enriched musical heritage is widely revered by music enthusiasts around the world. I believe Coca-Cola Bangladesh’s debut of the ‘Coke Studio Bangla’ platform, the Bengali version of ‘Coke Studio’ for Bengali speakers in many nations across the world, including Bangladesh, is an amazing initiative in this glorious month,” the minister said at the event.
Highlighting the popularity of Coke Studio for its fusion songs, he added, “I believe that ‘Coke Studio Bangla’ will become more popular worldwide than the way ‘Coke Studio’ has gained popularity in different countries of the world, including our neighbouring country India. We are hopeful that this wonderful platform will further uphold the glory of our diverse collection of songs.”
