POPULAR Bangladeshi composer and singer Lucky Akhand is now seriously ill and his family has sought help from all so that he can have better medical treatment abroad. It is indeed sad that an artist like Lucky is in such a condition that he cannot have proper treatment due to financial problem. The big corporate houses and the government should come forward and help Lucky have improved treatment outside the country. He is a freedom fighter and his numerous songs continue to mesmerise the music lovers of the country. He is one of the most popular singers of 80s and 90s. Those who grew up during that period cannot miss his magical voice. I hope Lucky Akhand will recover soon and come back among his admirers with more enchanting numbers. His songs make me nostalgic and I often listen to his music in YouTube. Bangladesh music indeed owes a lot to this talented singer. Let us all pray for his quick recovery.
