Putul Sajia Sultana and Syed Reza Ali share a deep love for music that has always been at the core of their relationship. Despite their differing musical preferences and football team loyalties, their bond has only grown stronger since the arrival of their daughter, Geetoleena. Reza’s move from Australia to Dhaka was driven by his passion for music, leading him to not only discover his true calling but also find his soulmate in Putul.
During a recent visit to The Daily Star, the couple, dressed in coordinated outfits, exuded mutual admiration and respect. Married for four years, they consider themselves best friends who value each other’s individuality while nurturing their shared world. Their endearing use of the term “tui” to address each other reflects the unique foundation of their relationship, rooted in friendship.
Their love story evolved organically without formal confessions, with their families recognizing their compatibility early on. Their paths crossed again in 2020 through a casual interaction on Facebook, eventually blossoming into a close friendship and professional collaboration in music.
Reza’s bold decision to leave his stable banking career in Australia to pursue music in Dhaka showcases his unwavering dedication to his passion. Their marriage, arranged with just three hours’ notice, was a spontaneous and memorable affair that took place at Reza’s house, facilitated by Putul’s resourceful mother-in-law.
As a musical duo, they are currently working on two albums featuring a diverse range of genres and styles. Putul, with her channel Putul Gaan, continues to showcase her talent through intricate compositions, while also collaborating on new projects with Reza.
Despite facing challenges in the music industry and dealing with misconceptions about their partnership, Putul and Reza remain committed to supporting each other’s individual artistic pursuits and maintaining a strong professional and personal relationship. Their journey as an artist couple is a testament to their shared passion for music and unwavering support for each other’s creative endeavors.
