PERSONAL MUSINGS

"Love Letters" has been dedicated to the memory of the late eminent actor Aly Zaker—who was initially supposed to perform the play with Ferdousi, but could not do so due to his ailing health.

Talking about his daughter, Tropa, who is directing the play, Ramendu said, "She is very confident and has worked very hard to make the show a success. The background score will definitely play a big role in the play."

Ferdousi added, "I'm quite fond of it. I'm glad to be working in the industry even at this age. This is how I want to spend my remaining days."
