James was an outstanding find

What’s in Anam(e)? An awesome track, if you are a singer from Bangladesh, were born Faruq Mahfuz and adopted the stage name James.

The song is question is Bheegi Bheegi, from Gangster (2006). It was five minutes and 45 seconds long.

Penned by Mayur Puri, it was his only contribution to the soundtrack of the film.

Pritam was inspired by a genre of Bengali music called Jibonmukhi gaan (which means songs about life), and specifically, by Prithibita Naki Choto Hote Hote, the signature song of a Kolkata-based band named Moheener Ghoraguli, which released in 1977.
