“Borbaad”, directed by Mehedi Hassan Hridoy, has been screening for 17 days since its release and continues to draw full houses, with reports of ticket shortages in some locations.
With packed halls and sustained audience turnout weeks after Eid, this year’s releases “Borbaad”, “Daagi” and “Jongli” have marked a strong box office run—prompting their scheduled release abroad.
Dhallywood’s leading actor Shakib Khan’s production house SK Films (Shakib Khan Films) has officially launched its international film distribution wing. The company will now regularly distribute films across North America (as SK Films USA) and the Gulf region (as SK Films UAE).
Veteran actor and National Film Award winner Shahiduzzaman Selim continues to make waves across theatre, TV, cinema, and OTT. This Eid, he pulled off a hat-trick with three of his films—“Borbaad”, “Jongli”, and “Daagi”—hitting theatres simultaneously.
“Borbaad's” popularity has been skyrocketing since its premiere during Eid-ul-Fitr. Fans are still having a hard time grabbing tickets for the movie in cinema halls.
Actor Sajal, whose movie “Jinn 3” was yet another Eid release, didn’t miss out on the experience either. On Eid day and the days that followed, he visited cinemas to gauge audience reactions. “This tradition of visiting the theatres is truly delightful,” he said. “I’ve joined in, and it feels wonderful.”
The item song “Chand Mama” from the film “Borbaad” has crossed 10 million views on YouTube within just seven days of its release. Uploaded on two different YouTube channels—Real Energy Production and Pritom Hasan’s official channel—the song is now trending at No 1 and 2 on YouTube.
As the film industry gears up for festival seasons, cinema hall owners eagerly anticipate the most hyped time of the year. This Eid-ul-Fitr, six films hit the silver screen: “Borbaad”, “Daagi”, “Jongli”, “Chokkor 302”, “Jinn 3”, and “Antaratma”.
Every year during Eid, superstar Shakib Khan's films are released to much fanfare.On the day of Eid, the film “Borbaad”, directed by Mehedi Hasan Hridoy and starring Shakib Khan, was released. Since the teaser was unveiled, audiences had been eagerly anticipating its arrival.
Dhallywood superstar Shakib Khan has arrived in Mumbai to begin shooting for his upcoming action film “Borbaad”, with filming set to start tomorrow.
In a recent media interview, Shakib faced tough questions about the delicate relationship between India and Bangladesh and offered his perspective on the matter.
After staying out of the public eye for nearly two months, Shakib Khan re-emerged in Dhaka, flaunting a bold new look that could easily be interpreted as being synonymous wih that of a South Indian film hero.
After back-to-back industry hits like “Priyotoma” and “Toofan,” Shakib Khan is riding high on success. These films have not only taken the Bangladeshi box office by storm but have also helped Bangla cinema gain international recognition. As he marks 25 years in the industry, Shakib seems to be shining brighter than ever.
Since the anti-discrimination student movement, Dhallywood has experienced a prolonged period of inactivity, with both the release and production of new films coming to a standstill. Although the interim government has gradually initiated plans for new movies, many productions are still falling behind schedule.
Shakib Khan's upcoming film "Rajkumar", helmed by director Himel Ashraf, will soon unveil its second track, titled "Borbaad".
