Shironamhin to release ‘Perfume’ on May 19

Rock band ‘Shironamhin’ is gearing up to treat their fans with their most exclusive music video titled ‘Perfume’ to mark their 25th anniversary. The song is releasing on May 19.

The band has kept the same name for the song and their new album. “This is the most expensive music video we have ever worked with. Earlier, we planned to make it with a budget of Tk 15-18 lakhs. But with everything, the cost for this music video would cross Tk 20 lakh,” said the vocalist of the band Sheikh Ishtiaque.

The band recently dropped a teaser of the song from their official Youtube channel. The 54 seconds teaser gave a vibe of Greek mythology. The teaser shows Greek mythical characters like Medusa, Zeus and some others. Starring Resh Rahman, Aranya Rana, Kanak Aditya, Mahadi Mostofa Prithu, Tugrul Nazim Pasha the music video is directed by Ziaur Rahman under Maer Doa production.

HM Sohel did an excellent job in colour correction while Million Dreams Studios made the VFT and title animation for the music video.

The song ‘Perfume’ is based on Greek mythology. “The music video has a vibe of the Greek rebellions, and protests aligning with the song. We have tried to present the song in a metaphorical way using Greek mythological characters,” said Sheikh Ishtiaque.

“Usually, in other music videos our costumes, makeups, and performance are not so different than regular. But in this music video, all the band members have played Greek mythological characters along with the artistes. We had a great and different experience while making the music video for ‘Perfume’,” he added.

Shironamhin is now preparing for their upcoming mega-concert titled ‘The Only Headliner’ with the Mumbai Symphony Orchestra which is going to be held at ICCB Bashundhara Expo Zone in the capital on May 26.

The current lineup of the band is –Ziaur Rahman on bass and cello, Kazy Ahmad Shafin on drums and sarod, Diat Khan on guitar, Sheikh Ishtiaque on vocal and Symon Chowdhury on the keyboard.
