Excited to play Konkon Dashi: Mithila

Rafiath Rashid Mithila is all set to appear in Gias Uddin Selim' s government-granted film "Kajol Rekha". Based on a 400-year-old Maimansingha Gitika, the actress will be seen donning the unique role of "Konkon Dashi", for which the shooting will take place next month.

"Gias Uddin Selim wanted me to be part "Kajol Rekha" from a long time, and we spoke about it two years ago. When he asked me at that time about which role I wanted to play in the movie, I instantly told him that I wanted the role of Konkon Dashi, said Mithila.

"Konkon Dashi is quite a unique character. Her ambitions and her quick wit made her one of the most interesting characters in the film. She became known as 'Konkon Dashi', for being obsessed with konkon," mentioned the actress.

"The 400 year old folklore tale is something that the Bengali has known for ages throughout their childhood. I feel truly blessed to be part of this movie," added the actress.
