Initially, the project was focused on being a single track, later it was turned into a duet based on the demand of its lyrics, also revealing Nancy as a surprise in this exceptional song project. The announcement happened on Wednesday night during the recording of the song titled "Brishti Jodi Na Thame Aj".
After recording the song, Habib and Nancy appeared with a video message from Habib Wahid's official Facebook page, sharing the details of the song project.
In the video, Habib said, 'Today I am very excited because I am going to announce a brand new track, that has been a totally new process of composing a song. It was a different experience for me. The biggest thing is that my fans have written the lyrics, picked from their submitted lines in my post on July 5 - and I was really surprised."
"I have never imagined that I would get such good lines from my audience, for the overall lyrics. I would have selected everyone's submitted songlines If I could fit them all, but I had to take the writings of a few. The song is going to be an amazing one, now being a duel featuring Nancy."
Praising this unique collaboration, Nancy said, "I think it was a very unique idea. The usual process that we always observe is that a song is written by one or two people, but I have never seen a song that has been written by 6 people - and that too from a social media platform like Facebook."
"This is a testament that how much Habib Wahid loves his fans and audiences. It is a great honour for me to be a part of such a project," she added.
On July 26, Habib announced the names of the selected commenters who have contributed the lines for the song titled "Brishti Jodi Na Thame Aj". These lyricists are Mukul Chandra Roy, Sufian Khan, Md Shahadt Hossain, Md Jahid Hasan, Md Ebriad Hasan Polock and Catherine Alo Mardi.
Earlier, Habib wrote a status on his Facebook page on July 5 stating "Brishti Jodi ar Na Thame Aj". He then offered his fans to complete the song by writing the rest of the lyrics.
