In the vibrant landscape of contemporary Bengali music, Saif Zohan has carved out a niche that is as distinct as it is evocative. While many of his peers dwell on the superficialities of romance, Zohan’s compositions are frequently steeped in the profound—blending the early flutters of love with a mature, philosophical outlook on life. Following the resounding success of his 2025 hit, ‘Kichu Manush More Jay Pachishe’ (Some People Die at Twenty-Five), the young singer-songwriter has entered 2026 with a relentless creative drive.
A Double Offering for Valentine’s and Falgun
Coinciding with the dual celebration of Valentine’s Day and Pahela Falgun (the first day of Spring), Zohan has unveiled two new singles. The first, ‘Aay Ghum’ (Come, Sleep), was released last night, while the second, ‘Mon Bechara’ (Poor Heart), makes its debut today.
As is customary for the artist, Zohan has handled both the lyrics and the melodies, while the sophisticated musical arrangement was curated by Shovan Roy. Speaking on the genesis of ‘Aay Ghum’, Zohan noted that the song was penned three years ago. “The melody carries a classical aura, yet the arrangement is decidedly experimental,” he remarked. “Listeners can expect something truly unconventional.”
Conversely, ‘Mon Bechara’ was born from a much more intimate setting. Zohan recounted how the chorus came to him last year while he was attempting to soothe his infant daughter to sleep. “She wouldn’t settle, and I found myself humming different tunes to comfort her. This melody emerged spontaneously, and I eventually developed it into a full track.”
Ambitious Horizons: The ‘Music Procession’ of 2026
Zohan’s productivity is set to reach unprecedented heights this year. After a slightly quieter 2025—where he released six out of a planned twelve tracks—he has doubled his targets for the current year. For an independent artist, his goal is nothing short of extraordinary.

The Soul of an Independent Artist
Despite commanding one of the largest YouTube platforms for a solo artist in Bangladesh, Zohan maintains a grounded approach to his craft. He balances a traditional career for his livelihood while dedicating his spirit to music. His success as an independent artist—free from the constraints of major labels—suggests that his “music procession” is only just beginning. With four songs already released in the first six weeks of the year, Zohan is well on his way to fulfilling his promise of a 24-track odyssey.
