with Shumena Akther: Global sounds

Shumena Akther is back on Asian Network Represents with a playlist full of global flavours, nostalgic throwbacks and feel-good energy.

New voices. New sounds.

This May on Asian Network Represents, Shumena Akther returns with a high-energy, globe-spanning soundtrack that blends nostalgia, culture and pure vibes. From iconic A.R. Rahman moments to Bollywood throwbacks and viral hits from across Pakistan, Turkey and the Middle East, this show is all about music that hits you right in the feels.

Expect everything from heartfelt anthems to gym-ready bangers, with artists like Afsana Khan, Arijit Singh and Ezu setting the tone. Along the way, Shumena shares personal reflections, from lessons in independence to the everyday moments that shape who we are.

It鈥檚 a celebration of identity, connection and the universal language of music, taking you from memory lane to the dancefloor and back again.

Produced in Birmingham by Solis Productions for 麻豆社 Asian Network.
