Singer Sonia returning in November
Music-lovers can easily recall the name of melody singer Sonia. Though her position was fourth in 2005's popular musical related reality show titled 'Close up 1 - Tomakey Khujchhey Bangladesh' but within very short time Sonia came into limelight by virtue of her superb rendering style, melodious voice and fashion consciousness.
Besides rendering her original songs, Sonia also engaged to give her voice in play-back songs during that time. She was also engaged with stage shows. In a word, Sonia came into limelight by her voice and rendering style and she became one of the first choices to the music directors during that time.
But leaving her popularity she left the country. She went to Montreal in Canada after tied the nuptial knot with Zahir Ahmed Polash 10 years ago. She is now passing happy life with her husband and two children.
When Pahela Boishakh comes, the song titled 'Bajere Baje Dhol Ar Dhak Elore Pahela Boishakh' is being listened elsewhere in the country. This song was rendered by Sonia, who was composed by Shawkat Ali Emon and its lyrics was written by Kabir Bakul.
This song is from Sonia's solo album titled 'Nithur Banshi'. Released from Sangeeta, songs of the album titled 'Shudhu Tomakey Bhalobashi' also impressed the listeners.
In 2012, when Sonia last time came to Bangladesh she rendered several numbers of songs and also took part in stage shows. After a long time, she talked with the media.
She said, "I have planned to come to country in November. In fact, many years I didn't come to here. I couldn't meet with my family in Bangladesh. I really miss my mother and this country.
I also miss days of my music career. But I cannot give assurance to render new song after coming to Bangladesh because I am busy with my family and two children. After going to Canada I performed in stage shows regularly but became mother of two children I couldn't give time to music."
