In May 2019, the band Shironamhin made a comeback with the song "Ei Obelay". At a time when the band was struggling to meet fan expectations with a new vocalist, this song served as a lifeline for Shironamhin. Now, almost five years later, the band is releasing a sequel, "Ei Obelay 2".
Alongside the Bangla version, an English rendition of the song has also been produced. For the first time, Shironamhin is presenting an English song for its listeners. This marks the fifth track in "Batighar", Shironamhin's fifth studio album.
Additionally, "Ei Obelay 2" will be released in a total of four versions. Alongside the original Bengali and English music videos, a performance-based video featuring the band members has been created, as well as a lyrical video. Zia mentioned that these videos will be released sequentially on the band's YouTube channel.
The song "Ei Obelay 2" was penned by Shironamhin's bandleader Ziaur Rahman, while the composition was done by the band's drummer, Kazi Ahmad Shafin, who also directed the music video. The shooting took place in Thailand. Speaking about the new song, Ziaur Rahman shared, "After the release of 'Ei Obelay,' we received an overwhelming response from our audience.
Everyone wanted a sequel to the song. We had experienced something similar before with the song 'Hashimukh' from our first album. We sensed a strong demand from our listeners for a sequel to 'Ei Obelay.
' So, while planning for the 'Batighar' album, we decided to include the sequel to.
