Usha Uthup's new single Mon Manchhe Na Aar launched in Kolkata's Trincas
Kolkata/IBNS: Pop icon Usha Uthup's Bengali single, titled Mon Manchhe Na Aar, was launched this week in collaboration with INRECO and Hindustan Record at Trincas, the go-to restaurant and bar of yesteryear in Park Street where the singer started her career in late 60s.
The song was launched by leading Tollywood actor and parliamentarian Dev in presence of Riad Dipanjan Saha, CEO, and INRECO and Hindustan Record at the place where Usha Uthup used to perform gigs very early in her career.
Mon Manchhe Na Aar is a poetic rendition of a love story deep in nostalgia, written by Rajib Duttaand composed by Suvajit Ray.
"It is sort of a homecoming for me with INRECO & Hindustan Record. It feels wonderful to sing this beautiful song for them.
"I am forever thankful to my music composers, lyricists, audio companies, and producers and above all, the listeners, for still showering their love on me and making me sing a new song”, said Usha Uthup.
"Trincas has been my mandir and masjid. It is my haloed ground," she added.
"It is a nostalgic moment for us because Usha Di had recorded her first Bengali song, ''Aha Tumi Sundari Koto Kolkata” in her rich melodious voice with Hindustan Record in 1978.
"After 44 years, we are reunited and releasing a brand-new Bengali song of hers. Listeners, no doubt, will love this song in Usha Di’s timeless voice," said Dipanjan Saha, CEO and INRECO & Hindustan Record.
