The indelible mark of the 1990s playback singer Khalid Hossain Milu on Bangladesh’s music scene remains unparalleled. In a relatively short career, Milu captured the hearts of audiences with his resonant voice, unique singing style, and magical melodies. He earned the National Film Award for numerous cinematic hits, including songs from Adhaish, solidifying his place in the nation’s musical heritage.
Today, that legacy continues through his youngest son, Pritam Hasan, whose emergence has already introduced a fresh wave of creativity to Bangladeshi music. Pritam’s elder brother, Pratik Hasan, is also celebrated as a talented vocalist, but it is Pritam who has begun to carve out a distinct identity by blending traditional Bangladeshi music with Western influences, creating original compositions that resonate widely.
Pritam’s repertoire includes chart-topping songs such as Local Bus, Asho Mama He, Jadukar, Beyainsab, and Girlfriend-er Bia. These hits have established him not only as a singer but also as a gifted composer. His unique melodies and captivating voice have also earned acclaim through contributions to the prestigious Coke Studio projects. Beyond music, Pritam has made a mark as an actor in various dramas and web films, where his presence leaves a lasting impression.
The years 2024 and 2025 were particularly noteworthy for Pritam, as he delivered a string of blockbuster cinematic songs.

Speaking to Manobzamin, Pritam reflected, “I don’t believe I’ve created a miracle yet. There is still much to learn. I am still very much on the journey of learning. But I continue striving to bring new dimensions to music.” For him, music is not merely a profession but a passion — one that drives his constant experimentation and pursuit of originality.
Looking ahead to 2026, Pritam Hasan promises to surprise audiences with new releases, further cementing his status as a versatile artist. His songs have become staples at weddings, parties, and dance events, and his dedication to innovative compositions ensures that his signature style continues to thrive.
