~~... that Ayub Bachchu made his debut as a playback singer with "Ananta Prem Tumi Dao Aamake", composed according to his singing style?~~ Source: 1 2

Article appears to be new enough and long enough. I am assuming good faith for all the Bengali sources. QPQ is not required as this appears to only be the nominator's third nomination. As for the hook itself, it's mentioned in the article and has multiple references. However, I'm not really sure if this hook would be interesting to international audiences. I understand Bachchu is Bangladeshi so the hook might be interesting to Bangladeshis (I'm not sure how famous he is in Bangladesh, please elaborate on this point), but Wikipedia isn't only written for Bangladeshis. Maybe a hook that would be interesting even to non-Bangladeshis or those unfamiliar with Bachchu or playback singing would work here as well? Perhaps an alternate hook that might appeal to the Bollywood audience might also help? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 09:54, 7 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
:Narutolovehinata5 Thanks for your comment. As you know, Wikipedia is a encyclopedia, which is not specific for any single region or part of the world. Any topic can be added from around the world's vast array of knowledge, including Bangladesh. Ayub Bachchu is a musician, one of best guitarist of Bangladesh as well as the South Asia. He is known as legend of Bangla rock, often called 'Guitar Legend'. He is one of few Bangladeshi artist, who sung, performed at Madison Square Garden. His death anniversary is mourned not only in Bangladesh, but also in India and Pakistan in South Asia, as well as the by the global Bangla Rock audiences. He has good notability for wikipedia. I think the hook is not audience specific. FaysaLBinDaruL (talk) 16:47, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
To help the nominator, I am proposing an alternative hook. Mehedi Abedin 13:01, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  - I think it's better but I'm not really sure if it appeals to a broad audience. I think I may have to ask for a second opinion here, ideally from someone outside of South Asia so they can give a detached opinion here. At the very least, I don't think ALT0 is feasible (I've struck it), but ALT1 may be possible. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 02:04, 16 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - The hook is fine—people don't typically watch movies for the songs alone—and it sounds like this was a significant crossover (something like KISS doing a love song). I must AGF on the Bengali-language sources. I'm going to suggest an ALT1a with two added words: Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 02:32, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
