"I've been in Dhaka for four days now. I went to Mawa Ghat with friends. It took us a long time due to heavy traffic, and I thought I might be able to reach before sunset to see the Padma River. On Wednesday, there will be a screening of 'Bijoyar Pore'. It's free for everyone. Mamata Shankar and director Abhijit have also arrived. We will be present at the screening. Everyone, please come, and we can all sit together to watch the movie. I will enjoy it a lot because I have come to Dhaka after many years," said Swastika Mukherjee.
