Assam witnessed a rare and deeply emotional day as fans gathered across the state to watch ‘Roi Roi Binale’, the final film of legendary singer and actor Zubeen Garg. The movie, which released today, drew huge crowds from early morning, marking a very special and bittersweet moment for people who grew up with his voice, his music, and his presence.
This film holds a different meaning for Assam. It is not just another movie release. For many, it feels like a final meeting with Zubeen Garg on the big screen — a last chance to see the artist who shaped Assamese music and cinema for decades. People came with heavy hearts but also with pride, remembering how Zubeen carried Assamese culture to new heights.
Garima Saikia Garg, Zubeen Garg’s wife, expressed her emotions while speaking to the media. She said that the weather today felt meaningful. “He always loved the rain. When his mortal remains returned to Assam, it rained, and today’s weather feels like a reflection of his enduring presence,” she said, her voice filled with emotion. She shared that she believes Zubeen’s dreams for Assamese cinema will continue to grow through the people who loved him. “I am preparing to watch the movie, confident that he would be happy with the love and support from the audience. May his soul rest in peace,” she added. 
The first show started very early at 4:25 a.m. at Matrix Cinema Hall in Beltola, Guwahati. Even at such an unusual hour, people gathered in large numbers. Many fans arrived before sunrise, holding banners, posters, and wearing scarves. Some had tears in their eyes even before entering the hall. The atmosphere felt silent, respectful, and emotional — as if the audience knew they were about to experience something bigger than just a film.
Inside the theatres, each scene touched hearts. The audience applauded, then fell quiet, absorbing every moment. Many fans cried, whispering that they still could not believe Zubeen is no longer with them. People described the film as powerful, soulful, and full of Zubeen’s passion. His music filled the halls once again, reminding everyone of his voice, which became the sound of Assam for many years.
A young admirer outside the hall struggled to control his tears. He said, “Zubeen Garg would have never thought this would be his last movie, but he did a commendable job. Through this film, he expressed everything about his life. He was truly a messenger of God.” Another viewer shared, “After watching the movie, it felt like we met him again. Every scene had his soul in it.”
For many, this film is a celebration of Zubeen’s life, not just a farewell. It is a reminder of how deeply he loved his culture, his people, and the cinema of Assam. He always pushed boundaries, always tried to give more to the industry, and always encouraged others to dream big.
