“Andrew Kishore needs your help-

Legendary playback singer Andrew Kishore has been diagnosed with cancer. His family has resorted to online fundraising to meet the huge treatment cost.

He has been undergoing treatment in Singapore for the last 77 days.

Talking with Prothom Alo in Whatsapp on Sunday, Andrew Kishore said he will have to stay in Singapore till February next year for treatment.

Asked about the online fundraiser, he said, “Yes they have done it. I can’t bear the huge treatment cost anymore. I’ll have to take treatment for a long time.”

He said more than Tk 20 million more is needed for the treatment and his wife Lipika Andrew has started the fundraising effort at ‘Go Fund Me’.

Diagnosed with aggressive diffuse large B cell lymphoma, Andrew Kishore started undergoing chemotherapy at Singapore General Hospital in September, said the fundraising request.

“I didn’t want that (fundraising). But I had no other alternative. Can’t bear the treatment cost anymore,” the eight times National Film Award winner singer told Prothom Alo.

Lipika said they had hastily gone to Singapore without taking preparations for the costly and time-consuming treatment.

So far Andrew Kishore underwent 12 chemotherapies in 3 cycles. Next cycle of chemotherapy is due to start on Tuesday. The physicians said he will have to undergo 12 more chemotherapies, which will cost Tk 21 million.

Each chemo costs around Tk 900,000. His family has already spent more than Tk 10 million for his treatment.

On 8 September, prime minister Sheikh Hasina handed over a cheque of Tk 1 million. A private television channel also donated Tk 1 million for his treatment.”

ক্যান্সারে আক্রান্ত এন্ড্রু কিশোরের জন্য নিউইয়র্কে কনসার্ট ২০শে ডিসেম্বর, উডসাইডের কুইন্স প্যালেসে। স্থানীয় শিল্পীদের পাশাপাশি কনসার্টে অংশ নেবেন দেশের তারকা শিল্পীরাও। এখান থেকে প্রাপ্ত অর্থ এন্ড্রু কিশোরের চিকিৎসার জন্য তার পরিবারের হাতে তুলে দেয়া হবে ।

আটবার জাতীয় চলচ্চিত্র পুরস্কার অর্জনকারী এন্ড্রু কিশোর দুরারোগ্য ক্যান্সারে আক্রান্ত হয়ে সিঙ্গাপুরের একটি হাসপাতালে ভর্তি আছেন। তার চিকিৎসা চালাতে প্রচুর পরিমাণে অর্থের প্রয়োজন।অনেকেই হয়তো বলবেন জীবনে এতো এতো গান করেছেন কী করলেন এতো অর্থ দিয়ে ? জীবনের সবকিছুর কী এতো হিসেব নিকেষ চলে । মানুষ অসুস্থ্য হয়ে পড়লে তখন বোঝা যায়। কতো আর অর্থ থাকে একজন শিল্পীর, কতো ? নিজের টাকা , চ্যানেলের টাকা, মাননীয় প্রধানমন্ত্রীর ১০লক্ষ টাকায় কতোদিন চলে এমন একটা অসুখের জন্য । যেখানে একটা কেমোথেরাপীর দাম ৯ লক্ষ টাকা। কীভাবে সম্ভব ? এই টাকা কী খুব বেশী তাঁর জন্য?.......

'' ভেঙেছে পিঞ্জর মেলেছে ডানা, উড়েছে পাখি পথ অচেনা, নীড়েরই ঠিকানা পাবে কিনা পাখি তা নিজেই জানেনা''

আজ এই গানের মানুষটির পথ অচেনা, নীড়হারা হয়েছেন সুরের জগত হতে। তবে কঠিন দুরারোগ্য চিকিৎসার পিঞ্জর ভেঙে উড়ে আসবেন তাল লয়ের ডানায় ভর করে নিজ আসরে।

সেই দোয়া ও প্রার্থনা রইলো অফুরান, আমরা আছি আপনার আগমনে অপেক্ষমান।
