Rajshahi audition selects five artistes for magic bauliana mega round

The fifth season of Magic Bauliana 2025, organised by the Sun Foundation in collaboration with Square Toiletries Ltd, has commenced on Maasranga Television in search of new talents in Bangla folk music.

For their excellence in melody, rhythm, presentation, and overall performance, the judges selected five artists who will now advance to the Dhaka mega selection round.
