Winning was a Bangladeshi Band. During 1970-1980 some of the band members of Azam Khan (the Legend of Rock in Bangladesh), planned to form a new Band. On the 1st January 1983, they formed 'Winning'. The band lineup was - Haider Hussain (Guitar and Vocal), Mitul (Vocal and Guitar), Ranjan (Drums and Vocal), Shelly (Bass), Rana (Keyboards), Fahim (English Vocal). They performed a music video on BTV (Bangladesh Television), since then Winning came out in the lime light and started to perform in big concerts.
During 1984-1985 there were some changes in lineup. Mitul, Haider, Fahim and Rana went USA. New Members were Babu (Guitar and Vocal), Reza (Rhythm Guitar and Vocal), Reza Khan (Guitar and Keyboards), Biplob (Keyboards). During the year 1988 Ranjan had an accident when he was playing cricket as wicket keeper. He broke his fingers and couldn’t play drums. Winning then requested Tipu (Warfaze) to play as a guest member.
In 1989-1991, when Winning composed 12 songs ready to record and launch their very first album was named as self titled “Winning”, at this time Babu and Reza left the band. Again new lineup was Chandan (Vocal and Guitar), Ranjan (Vocal and Drums), Shelly (Bass), Biplob (Keyboards), Tipu (Drums), Shajal (Manager)
Winning released their first debut album in July 1991. In 1994, Shelly, Ranjan, Shajal left the band. Mobin joined the band as bass guitarist. The 2nd Album was released in 1994 with the album title 'Ochena Shohor'. Emon left the band in 1998 and the Major problem arised when Chandan went UK for a year to get higher education and came back in 1999. During this year Winning could not continue their regular activity.
Winning reunited in 2000 but again Chandan (Vocal) migrated to Canada and met Ranjan there, one of the founder members of Winning, who had also migrated to Canada. They decided to reform Winning again in Canada and asked permission from the members in Dhaka. However, members in Dhaka also took initiative to continue the band in Bangladesh. As a result, two different lineup established in two different countries, amazingly both lineup produced and released their album in 2003 with all the old songs mostly tuned by Chandan. After a while the lineup in Bangladesh discontinued for various reasons.
Winning in Canada continued their activity since 2003 on a regular basis. Winning in Canada performed in Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Windsor, Detroit, Virginia, Texas, Kansas, Pennsylvania and many other province and states in North America mostly in Bangladesh community.
