"Right now, believe it or not, I am busy supporting Rabindranath's 'amar sonar bangla' and his musical genius in choosing the baul tune to set his important lyrics as a tribute to Bangla Ma at a critical juncture in the country's political history. Wish me luck in convincing a bunch of people that 'amar sonar bangla' is not just a silly sleepy song by a 'Hindu' poet but the most appropriate national anthem for Bangladesh."---FM
Thanks. I cannot agree more.

It really does not matter so much who Rabindra Nath dedicated the Janagama song. It is a very appropriate national anthem for India. On the contrary, I do not like the national anthem of Bangaldesh. It is too mild, and does not have the rhythm and spirit of a national anthem. I wish we had chosen Dhana Dhyanne Pushpe Bhora …. as our national anthem. Jiten Roy
