The song ‘O Jan’, filmed against the breathtaking snow-clad landscapes of Mustang, Nepal, was released yesterday on Gaanchill Music’s YouTube channel. Shot in freezing temperatures ranging from minus 8°C to minus 10°C, the track features the vocal talents of Konal and Niloy, with models Sunerah Binte Kamal and Farrukh Ahmed Rehan bringing the visuals to life. The music video was directed and produced by Tanim Rahman Anshu.
This project follows the success of last year’s acclaimed track ‘Moyna’, which also featured Konal and Niloy. While ‘Moyna’ was a lively dance number, ‘O Jan’ is a purely romantic composition, presented with enhanced production values and meticulously crafted visuals. The lyrics were penned by Asif Iqbal, while the music was composed by Avral Sahir (Dhaka) and Linkon (Kolkata), with arrangement by Avral Sahir.
Asif Iqbal shared his thoughts on the project, stating,
“Gaanchill Originals’ debut song ‘Moyna’ was a dance number, whereas ‘O Jan’ is entirely romantic. Anshu has delivered stunning visuals, and combined, the song will surely resonate with audiences.”
Vocalist Konal added,
“‘Moyna’ was romantic in its entirety, and the lyrics by Asif Iqbal, combined with Avral Sahir’s arrangement, have translated beautifully onto the Nepalese snowfields. I believe ‘O Jan’ will surpass the popularity of its predecessor.”
Niloy noted,
“The song is completely cinematic. From lyrics and melody to visuals, everything has come together wonderfully.”
Director Tanim Rahman Anshu explained,
“Gaanchill has always aimed to bring fresh styles to music videos. ‘O Jan’ is no exception. The project offers a soothing experience for the heart and visual delight for the eyes, integrating snow, mountains, and romance into a cohesive cinematic expression. This collaboration spans Bangladesh, India, and Nepal, with cinematographers and choreographers from India, location management in Nepal, and direction and co-production from Bangladesh.”
