Ayesha Binte Azad Kona is a promising singer who has many dreams with music. She was brought up with music during childhood. For this reason, she has been studying in music at National Music College where she is a student of third year of Nazrul songs. Kona’s debut original song titled Obhinoy has been released on YouTube channel. Karmin Rimisha Tumpa wrote lyric of the song while its music was composed by Uttam, who is senior at Kona’s department at Music College. Though this song did not create hype among the listeners but Kona attracted the music-lovers’ attention to cover popular song of Kolkata’s movie Prakton titled Ami ki tomai khub birokto korchhi-lokkiti. The song has already viewed by 41 lakh viewers on YouTube channel.
Basically for this song Kona is getting response from the music-viewers. As a result, Kona’s dream with music is being increased day by day.
While talking in this regard Kona said, “I have many dreams with music. My big dream is to win the world in music. I believe I will do it Inshallah.”
Kona, hailed from Patuakhali, said that in music, her maternal grandfather Modhu Boyati was her inspiration. Modhu Boyati is father of folk legend of the country and Parliament Member Momtaz Begum. Therefore, her mother Rehana and aunty Momtaz are also her inspiration in music. “In childhood, when I was stayed in Ramgati in Noakhali due to my father’s job I received training in music from Anjan Das. Later, I also received more training from Latif Sir, among others. Now I am receiving training in Nazrul song from Mofizur Rahman. I have developed my skill in music from Baul Shofi Mondol and Md Shoeb. I want to establish myself as a versatile singer. Now I am busy with two more new songs and some cover songs,” Kona also said. Today is Kona’s birthday. She will pass the day with her family, she added.
