Bangladeshi fathers, particularly those who came of age in the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, weren’t built for emotional declarations.
While you should indulge because, let’s be honest, Eid is about love, family, and licking rezala off your elbow, it’s not a bad idea to also plan a bit of a comeback. A soft, digestive reboot.
In the chaos of Dhaka traffic, one vehicle has quietly taken over: the battery-powered three-wheeler, often called the ‘Tesla’, not the sleek one from Silicon Valley, but the Bangladeshi kind.
May 1 and 2 gave us something rare. A proper show. Curated Cars wasn’t just another excuse to hang out and say, “Bro, my car faster.” This was for the real enthusiasts—the ones who actually know what a Jaguar S-Type is and don’t think a McLaren is just a footballer. So what did they do differently?
