Jamil Bin Khalil
Jamil Bin Khalil, a contemplative bard, resonates with Jibanananda Das’s insight, affirming for himself that “Not everyone is a poet; some are poets.” His poetic journey eschews personal verses for the melodic embrace of others’ recitations. Within the rhythms of his own creation, Khalil explores contemporary landscapes, delving into societal intricacies and the poignant echoes of liberation. His encouraging loving friends birthed his debut, ‘O Akash Tumi Thamo.’ Rooted in Khelaghar since school, Khalil extends its cultural legacy to Canada, founding ‘Khelaghar Canada’ and ‘Aalo Diye Jai.’ He also contributes to the recitation organization ‘Bachonik,’.
