| Re: CloseUp1 2006: Top Five: Old songs! Thanks Teol Bahi for this program. I have few observations about the closeup1 this time. The judges always talk about Bangla culture and its origin. But I haven’t found the Polligeti Round this time which was present in the previous occasion. There were many episodes but they dropped that special round. Now we have 5 participants and I haven’t heard 4 of them singing any Polli Giti at all. I have no doubt about the performance of Muhin and Ronty but they haven’t sung any such song. So if closeup1 should be able to perform all types of songs, why this one is neglected? If I am not wrong this is an inseparable part of the bangle culture. We know how good salma and polash are in these songs. Salma is performing modern songs now and getting harsh comments from the judge but this is not her area. Why not put others in her area and observe how they perform/ I believe they will do good but people should know about it. If they are so concern about the culture they should think about this attitude. There is one episode to go and I am sure that it will be deshatoo bodhok song. __________________ Hridoye Bangladesh |
