Awaaz Uda with the song of mass uprising organised by Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy
The spirit of determination and hope born out of the historic July Uprising will pay tribute to the people's voice, the brilliance of youth, the diversity of our cultural heritage and the new horizon on which we stand today.
All the songs, slogans or other activities that fuelled the July movement affected the movement. As a result, many artists face various legal risks. Ignoring the legal complications, many have united the masses through music. Their contribution to this victory is undeniable as they have been able to motivate people in those adverse moments with the message of revolution. Considering those moments, Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy will organise the mass uprising song 'Awaaz Uda' at Nandanmanch on November 8, 2024, at 6 pm with the relevant songs of that time.
In light of the most popular song of this popular uprising, 'Awaaz Uda', Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy has chosen the theme of this event as 'Awaaz Uda'. At that time, rapper Hannan Hossain Shimul's 'Awaaz Uda,', i.e. the raising of voice, has now become a victory. Therefore, Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy wants to spread and celebrate the triumph of mass uprising under the motto 'Awaaz Uda'. This sense of victory, realisation, thought and flow of creation wants to be communicated through the ceremony.
