Singers come from every where to do playback singing in the Bollywood movies. We have seen many singers making their career go on top like Himesh Reshammiya and many others. Surprisingly we could have never expected a Bengali band’s lead singer to hit the chartbusters on top. Recently the music of the film Jannat was released. It was a bit surprising for all that Rupam Islam had been offered to sing for a rock number called Jannat Jahan. This guy proves that even singers who only sing Bengali song can screw any Bollywood singers. His voice is quite electrifying and the lyrics which are used in the song hit the mind directly.

This could have never been possible if Pritam who is a great music director had not given this opportunity to Rupam. Like the voice of the singer, the music is very electrifying and it can be considered to be a rock number. This music has surely given an inspiration to the local guitarists to pick this c\song up on their guitar. This song has managed to hit the maximum of the youngsters and the song says it all. Now we do look forward for more of Rupam’s voice in other songs.
