Mazharul Anwar’s Last Song in Dithi–Apu Voices

The song “Meghla Akash” stands as the final written composition of celebrated South Asian lyricist Gazi Mazharul Anwar during his lifetime. The track has been composed and arranged by contemporary musician Apu Aman, and is performed by Dithi Anwar alongside Apu Aman.

The recording has already been completed, and the accompanying music video has also been finalised, according to Dithi Anwar. She confirmed that the project holds deep personal significance, as it is directly connected to her father’s final creative period. She added that Gazi Mazharul Anwar had witnessed the recording process while he was still alive, which makes the work particularly meaningful for the family.

Dithi Anwar further stated that her father had a close professional association with Apu Aman and had personally entrusted him with composing responsibilities for multiple songs. “Meghla Akash” was one of those selected works. She also expressed confidence that Apu Aman’s musical arrangement has elevated the lyrical composition and would resonate positively with listeners.

Apu Aman described the opportunity to compose music for a song written by Gazi Mazharul Anwar as a significant achievement in his career. He noted that he had met the lyricist shortly before his death and had worked with him on the musical arrangement of the song. According to him, this interaction took place two days prior to Gazi Mazharul Anwar’s passing in 2022, making it a rare and memorable professional experience.

The song is expected to be released ahead of the upcoming Eid season through a new YouTube channel operated by Dithi Anwar.

It is also recalled that Gazi Mazharul Anwar had intended to perform the song with his wife on 24 September 2022, marking their 50th wedding anniversary. However, this plan remained unfulfilled due to his death in the same year. The composition is therefore regarded as his final completed lyrical work.
