The concluding ceremony of Bhupen Hazarika’s birth centenary will be held on November 29, marking a hundred years since the legendary Assamese artist’s birth.
The final event of the birth centenary celebrations for iconic Assamese singer‑composer Bhupen Hazarika is scheduled for 29 November, according to India Today NE. The ceremony will mark a full century since Hazarika’s birth and is expected to bring together cultural organisations, artists and admirers from across the state.
Over the past weeks, a series of cultural programmes, exhibitions and musical tributes have been organised in various parts of Assam to honour Hazarika’s legacy. These activities have highlighted his contributions to Assamese music, film and social activism.
State officials and prominent figures from the arts community are slated to attend the finale, which will likely feature performances of Hazarika’s classic songs and reflections on his impact on Indian cultural life.
