Second Sex: An Interview With Anupam Roy

Just watched an interview of Anupam Roy on a bengali news channel. The interview was around his latest offering 'Second Sex' and here's what the talk was all about. 

Once again, since the entire conversation was in Bengali, I've tried to share it here as well as I could understand. So please do forgive if there's some wrong interpretation.

1. Why did you create this song in English? Was this a deliberate attempt to let the song reach more audience, who are not comfortable with Bengali?

So what is 'Second Sex' all about?

Here's what Anupam Roy has to say about it...his thoughts, his words.....

Anupam Roy's 'Urey Jaak' from The Album 'Doorbine Chokh Raakhbo Na' Lyrics In English Script

The song is called 'Urey Jaak', roughly meaning 'let it fly away' and was originally written in September 2007. This appeared in Anupam Roy's 2012 album 'Doorbine Chokh Raakhbo Na.'

Though I'm not sure if this is as popular as the other ones, I really quite like the lyrics, they speak to me, they connect to me, I can make my own meaning out of them, while flowing in tune with the song.....

So for those of you who understand the Bengali script, or haven't been able to sing along to this one, here are the lyrics for you in English script to help you understand better.
