'Antarjal' clears censor hurdle, set to premiere in September

Initially planned for release during Eid ul Azha, Siam Ahmed and Bidya Sinha Mim starrer film, "Antarjal", faced delays due to technical issues, and delayed censor certification. This led to the announcement shortly before the holy occasion that the cyber-thriller would not hit theatres during Eid.

Now, "Antarjal" has secured the censor certificate from the Bangladesh Censor Board, confirming its release date on September 8. 

In this film, Siam has donned the role of a freelance programmer, Lumin, while Mim and ABM Sumon take on the role of cyber security officers. Sunerah Binte Kamal portrays a robot engineer.
