Konal, already having a National Film Award under her belt, has been off as a television host for a long time. But after a extended pause, due to her busyness with music, the Bangladeshi singer is returning back as a host. On Tuesday, October 18th, the 17th Channel i Music Award is set to take place by the Padmapar.
The program will be hosted by the Channel i Shera Kontho singer, Somnur Monir Konal. About 7/8 years ago she hosted the Channel i Performance Award. This time, Oikko dot com Channel i Music Award is expected to take place at larger scale, said Konal. This award ceremony is considered to be one of the most prestigious awards in the music arena of the subcontinent.
Furthermore, I will be doing the work in the cantonment area in front of the soldiers, so it is a great honor for me to take the responsibility of presenting this program. Hope everyone will like the show, she added. Sheikh Russell's birthday (October 18) to be held at the Sheikh Russell Cantonment on the other side of the Padma Bridge will have many surprises. Channel i Music Award organizers say that this is going to be the biggest colorful event in the Padmapar. Stars from all areas including music will be attending this music award.
The entire program is expected to be hosted by Konal and Apu Mahfuz except for one segment which will be hosted on stage by Imran Mahmudul. The program is scheduled to be aired on Channel i television and Channel i's YouTube channel near the end of this month.
