Manna Dey's last four compositions dedicated to wife

Manna Dey had composed four romantic songs for his wife before he passed away but could not fulfil his last wish of recording them.
Asha Audio Company's director Mahua Lahiri told PTI today that recording of the songs were planned, but it did not take place due to the singer's prolonged illness.
"Now since he is not there, we have to talk to his family on how do we go about it, but we want the whole world to know what he had dedicated these songs to his wife," Lahiri said.
"If we get someone good enough to sing it, we will record it and release it as an album," Lahiri said.

The lyrics of the songs were written by Deboprasad Chakraborty while Dey composed the music earlier in the year.
If released, the album would have two other Rabindra Sangeet numbers selected by Dey.
His wife Sulochana was known to be an inspiration behind a number of his evergreen love songs. He lost her in January last year due to cancer.
