Richi Solaiman on a roll

Popular actress Richi Solaiman forayed into production eight years ago with her production house Nilanjona. Since then, the actress has been simultaneously focusing on both acting and production.

The actress recently finished shooting for two new single-episode TV plays: “Nilkontho Pakhir Palok” and “Uttomer Pocket-e Suchitra”. The first casts Richi against Rownak Hasan, who is also the director of the play. In the latter, she will be seen with Apurbo. Meanwhile two drama serials -- “Milar Baranda” and “Palta Haowa” -- in which Richi plays lead roles -- are set to go on air soon. Richi has also featured in a TVC for a footwear company. 

Richi's production house Nilanjona is bringing a new drama serial titled “Jokhon Kokhono” to viewers. Written by Sohan Khan, the drama serial will be directed by Rohomotullah Tuhin.

Asked why she is not visible any more in her own productions, Richi said, “It is difficult to work simultaneously as an actor and producer for a production. That's why I prefer working under other producers where I can work freely.”

The cast for the new play will be selected soon, informed the actress-turned producer. The shooting for “Jokhon Kokhono” begins this month.
