Guwahati: As Assam prepares for the release of Zubeen Garg’s long-awaited dream project Roi Roi Binale, the emotional atmosphere surrounding the film has grown deeply personal for fans across the state. A heartfelt message by Zubeen’s wife, Garima Saikia Garg, shared on Facebook, has touched thousands, becoming a powerful symbol of love, longing, and resilience.
In her post, Garima reflected on Zubeen’s artistic dedication and her yearning for his presence as he remains away from the public due to ongoing health concerns. Her words, filled with tenderness and pain, painted a vivid picture of what his absence means to her. She wrote of how Zubeen would have immersed himself in the final touches of the film—reviewing music, planning release strategies, and ensuring that Roi Roi Binale contributed meaningfully to the Assamese film industry. Her message concluded with a deeply emotional confession of how life feels incomplete without him, resonating widely with admirers of the beloved artiste.
The post quickly drew an outpouring of empathy and admiration online, as social media users described it as “heart-wrenching,” “poetic,” and “a testament to the silent sacrifices behind art and fame.” Many expressed that Garima’s words captured the collective emotional state of fans who have been hoping for Zubeen’s recovery and return.
Meanwhile, excitement for the film has surged on the ground. On Sunday night, Guwahati witnessed an energetic poster campaign that covered major locations including Six Mile, Ganeshguri, Paltan Bazar, Christian Basti, and Bhongaghar. Fan clubs, joined by close associates like Jayanta Kakoti and singer Montumoni Saikia, stayed out past midnight to plaster the city with posters, accompanied by music and chants celebrating Zubeen’s legacy. The event felt less like promotion and more like a tribute to an artist whose influence is woven into Assam’s cultural identity.
With Roi Roi Binale set for release on October 31 across Assam and select cities nationwide, the film has already become much more than a cinematic project. Fan groups have also issued a firm call against piracy, urging the public to support the film in theatres and protect its value as a milestone in Assamese cinema.
What began as Zubeen Garg’s artistic dream now stands as an emotional movement united by love, loyalty, and hope — a testament to the enduring place he holds in the heart of Assam.
