Oscar-winning composer and music icon A.R. Rahman has publicly recognized the work of Bangladeshi singers Shuvendu Das Shuvo and Sanjida Mahmud Nandita, sharing their recent performance on his official Instagram account. The endorsement highlights the duo’s growing profile within the regional music scene, marking a significant milestone in their careers.
For the past 18 months, Shuvo and Nandita have been collaborating on a project titled “Moji & Co,” dedicated to reimagining and performing classic songs with contemporary arrangements. The initiative has garnered steady praise from listeners, but the inclusion of their cover of the Rahman-composed track “Saawariya” has brought them into the spotlight of the maestro himself.

Reacting to the unexpected recognition, Shuvo expressed his disbelief, noting that he grew up listening to Rahman’s music and citing the composer as a primary source of his artistic inspiration. He described the moment as surreal, emphasizing the profound impact of having his work acknowledged by a figure he has long admired.
Nandita shared a screenshot of Rahman’s Instagram story on her own social media platforms, capturing her excitement as she struggled to process the development. She remarked that the experience felt dreamlike and vowed to carry the memory as a lifelong source of professional motivation.
