Now the actor will play the role of the father (Shihab Shaheen) in the film and Tasnia Farin will take on the character of his daughter. The film also stars Irfan Sajjad, and Shohel Mondol, amongst others.

With global names like Netflix, HBO, Disney, and Amazon investing heavily in the concept, it is inevitable that local names like Chorki, Hoichoi, Binge, Bongo etc., will continue to flourish equally. As the ecosystem continues to grow, we have numerous questions that come into our minds, such as how much OTT has actually affected the overall entertainment industry, what its future outlook may be, and whether there will be any negative impact, as is usual with any swiftly expanding user platform.
