GUWAHATI, Jan 23: Byatikram MASDO launched the song titled ‘Tumi Je Ahila’ by singer Chandrima Bhattacharya at the Guwahati Press Club on Tuesday. This song holds special significance as it was the last composition of the late artist Rishiraj Sharma, son of renowned musicians Dilip Sharma and Sudakshina Sharma. Chandrima Bhattacharya, a popular singer from Kolkata and daughter of Assam, rendered the vocals for the song.
Expressing her connection with Rishiraj Sharma, Chandrima Bhattacharya shared, “Rishiraj Sharma was very close to me. I lost contact with Rishida as I was not in Assam for a long time. After he was in Kolkata for a few days due to illness, my relationship with Rishida deepened again. One day he said, ‘Let’s do a song together’, but later, due to Rishida’s illness and his untimely death, that plan was incomplete. So this time we are preparing to make his unfulfilled dreams into a reality.”
