Azmeri Haque Badhon

What good is fame, if I can't speak for the people: Badhan

As the rain soaked her through, cascading like tears from a grieving sky, it did nothing to dampen the searing fury and sorrow that burned deeply in her heart on that day. Adorned in a black salwar kameez with a bright red scarf draped around her neck, her eyes blazed with fierce determination as she denounced the horrific acts sanctioned by the tyrannical regime.

I am nervous about 'Khufiya': Badhan

The highly anticipated trailer for the Netflix film "Khufiya," directed by Vishal Bhardwaj, was unveiled today. This marks the Bollywood debut of actress Azmeri Haque Badhon, and it's already creating quite a buzz in the industry.

Azmeri Haque Badhan’s love affair for saris continue

Azmeri Haque Badhan wore a white nakshi kantha sari, while accepting the National Award in 2023. This has been more than just a fashion statement for her. Here's the story:

Silk saris you need before the year ends

Statement silk saris promise to take you back to the ‘60s and help mimic your favourite Bollywood heroine. Decades ago, this very silk sari conjured images of eye-catching young women from elite society but today, that image has somehow faded because of the scarcity of the authentic fabric and the existence of cheaper alternatives that actually look nothing close or exclusive as its predecessors.

Nobo: A craft centre of excellence

Silmat Chisti of Nobo Dhaka, knows her way around the traditional weaves of Bangladesh. Jamdani, Silk, Tangail — you name it. She can continue a well-informed conversation for hours. After launching Nobo Dhaka in 2019 along with her friend, Mitia Saleh, the entrepreneur worked hard to source, produce and promote anything and everything that was a part of the heritage of Bangladesh. At least that was the primary thought behind initiating the brand. Part of the reason why she aims to make Nobo, an authentic traditional brand is to revive and restore the heritages of Bangladesh, ones that we are almost on the verge of losing.

Azmeri Haque Badhan’s new journey on Netflix

Azmeri Haque Badhan, a household name and creative force to be reckoned with, is now aiming far and beyond with her first look at Vishal Bhardwaj’s spy thriller "Khufiya," in a Netflix teaser. The upcoming Netflix movie, Khufiya, is inspired by true events, based on the popular espionage novel "Escape to Nowhere," by Amar Bhushan. Despite the current hype, this movie was first offered to actresses Mehazabien Chowdhury and Bidya Sinha Mim, who later decline the role due to some highlights of political issues connected to Bangladesh. The script allegedly shows Bangladesh in a bad light.

Badhon and the dazzling jamdanis in Rabindranath Ekhane Kokhono Khete Ashenni

I watched the web series for three main reasons — my undying affection for thrillers written by Bengali writers (this particular one also had a hint of supernatural thrown into it – talk about luck!). For the protagonists of the series, played by favourites (colossal fan of Azmeri Haque Badhon and Rahul Bose).
