During the golden era of Bangladeshi cinemas, music was one of the key factors for a film to attract the audience towards theatres. In between bidding goodbye to the 35mm camera, and welcoming high-fidelity digital cameras in filmmaking, the music has been neglected for many years. As the film industry was suffering from a huge loss, it also hampered the film songs as well.
Eid releases this year have been a breath of fresh air for the industry, from small screen regulars debuting on the big screen to reviving cinema halls, Dhallywood has been turning a new leaf. Similarly, among Eid releases this Eid-ul-Azha, " Priyotoma" has amassed the largest earnings, with "Shurongo" following closely behind.
