Tribute to Shri Bhupen Hazarika
Bhupen Hazarika (8 Sep 1926 – 5 Nov, 2011), was an Indian playback singer, lyricist, musician, poet, actor and filmmaker from Assam, widely known as Sudha Konthi (meaning cuckoo, literally "nectar-throated"). His songs, written and sung mainly in the Assamese language by himself, are marked by humanity and universal brotherhood and have been translated and sung in many languages, most notably in Bengali and Hindi.
His songs, based on the themes of communal amity, universal justice and empathy, are especially popular among the people of Assam, West Bengal and Bangladesh. He is also acknowledged to have introduced the culture and folk music of Assam and Northeast India to Hindi cinema at the national level. He received the National Film Award for Best Music Direction in 1975, the Sangeet Natak Akademi Award (1987), Padma Shri (1977), and Padma Bhushan (2001), Dada Saheb Phalke Award (1992), the highest award for cinema in India and Sangeet Natak Akademi Fellowship (2008), the highest award of the Sangeet Natak Akademi. He was posthumously awarded both the Padma Vibhushan, India's second-highest civilian award, in 2012, and the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian award, in 2019. Hazarika also held the position of the Chairman of the Sangeet Natak Akademi from December 1998 to December 2003.

This song “Dil hoon hoon kare” composed and sung by Bhupen Hazarika for the film Rudali (1993) is my attempt to recreate this masterpiece song in my own humble way as a tribute to this legend.
I express my sincere thanks for the bits and pieces of the various images I could collect from the various open internet sources.
