Bondho Janala (Bengali: বন্ধ জানালা English: Closed Window) is the third album by the Bengali psychedelic rock band Shironamhin. G-Series released the album on 13 April 2009 in Bangladesh.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}
Background
Bondho Janala was a bit challenging for Shironamhin as they were very much used to sarod sound compositions. In the album they had to explore many more acoustic instruments like Esraj, Silver Flute, Trumpet etc. as the album was enriched with vivid orchestration.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}} Lyrically Shironamhin tried to work on their already established genre of urban life talks with some bigger aspects and along with historical events or movements.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}} Bus Stoppage was based on a regular life happening around a bus stop in your very own locality; the newspaper stand, the billboards displaying contest winner beauties, the hawkers, the little girl selling flowers in the street who could touch the glasses of the cars but couldn't touch the hearts inside or the corporate guy completely missing the enormous sky full of stars above his head while distressed with selling his dreams now and then for the agony of life.{{citation needed|date=April 2023}}
