Yes, shabnum was very pretty. Can people of Bangladesh understand urdu ?
A tiny fraction of the middle class- thanks to Hindi movies. Also some of the educated older generation people (born and brought up pre 71). But it seems easier for us to learn as Urdu/Hindi uses a good number of Farsi/Arabic words being Muslims which we are familiar with. Also Bangla has many words in common with Urdu/Hindi (only they sound distorted). Some dialects/languages of Bangladesh share more words with Urdu/Hindi than pure Bangla does.
