Yesmin Labonno is simultaneously a dancer, singer and presenter. As a dancer, she started her career in 2015 at the Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy (BSA) in Dhaka. Currently, she is working as a senior dancer at the BSA.
As a dancer, she has to perform dances in various types of events organised by BSA. She performed dances on the last Dance Day and on the birth anniversary of our national poet Kazi Nazrul Islam.
Since she has ventured into three branches of culture, everyone at Shilpakala Academy knows her very well. Labonno is 100 percent responsible and conscious about her work, which is why her superiors easily trust her.
Labonno has already completed work for a few songs. Once the music videos are done, the songs will be released around the upcoming Eid or after. Meanwhile, Labonno has said that she will perform songs live on a musical show on Desh TV during the upcoming Eid. However, she may finalize performing on one or two more TV channels' live musical shows before Eid.
Notable original songs released in Labonno's voice include 'Kolpona', 'Shwapno Dekha Shuru', 'Dekhona', 'Shwagatom Baishakh', 'Tumi Aslena', 'Bhalobashi Koto Jotone' etc. But the most recent song 'Shudhu Tomari Bhabnay' released in her voice has captivated the listeners the most.
Incidentally, today is Labonno's birthday. Labonno said, “I have tried to build myself as a good human being. I don't know how much I have succeeded in this journey of life. I love music a lot. I want to leave behind some good songs. Along with music, dance and presenting are the ornaments of my journey. On my birthday, I seek prayers from all that may Allah keep me healthy and allow me to live a beautiful life.”
It may be mentioned that after completing her Honors in English Literature and Masters in Music (stood first class first from University of Development Alternative), Labonno regularly anchors shows on Mashranga TV.
