Will Nayeem be able to 'Overtrump' this time too?

FS Nayeem, in his career of 13 years, has won the hearts of many. The actor's OTT resurgence through "Karagar" was all worth his effort, where he successfully gave life to the character of a DB police officer named Ashfaque. 

From a very serious role he will now be seen taking a turn into a cheerful character of Mahabub Khan, in the Chorki original web series "Overtrump". The actor will be sharing the screen with Chanchal Chowdhury yet once again after "Karagar". 

"Mahabub Khan, is a colourful character, whose ultimate goal in life is to become an actor," shares Nayeem. "He is an extremely dedicated film lover, and in his life he had only one dream, of becoming an actor."

Nayeem believes that creating projects of similar genre is depriving the audience. "As an artiste, I always try to go beyond the bar, and set new challenges for myself."

Nayeem also shared that there is a core social aspect hiding in the content. "I am hopeful that it will be loved by all."

Nayeem is also set to portray ASP Mahid in Sunny Sanwar's web series "Mission Huntdown", for hoichoi.
