Raihan Rafi’s “Taandob” broke major records upon its theatrical release during Eid-ul-Azha. The star-studded film, featuring Shakib Khan, Jaya Ahsan, Sabila Nur, and Afzal Hossain, was widely loved by audiences.
Sufia Easel’s moody watercolour art explores anxiety, memory, and solitude. Shifting from graphic design to painting full-time, she now sells merchandise to reach wider audiences while preserving her deeply personal, emotionally rich artistic style.
Chorki, known for championing diverse storytelling, developed this platform to give short films broader exposure beyond festivals and niche audiences. As Chorki CEO Redoan Rony put it, “Young filmmakers usually end up screening their short films only at festivals or for a specific crowd. After that, these films almost disappear from public view. We wanted to change that.”
Alongside “Amalnama”, Zahid will also appear in “Utshob”, a film directed by Tanim Noor, set for release this Eid-ul-Azha. Reflecting on his choices, he added, “I don’t take on projects unless I truly like them. After my break, I’ve worked on two projects and enjoyed both. The audience will see me in different roles in these films.”
While the teaser keeps much of the storyline under wraps, Hasan's appearance has led many to speculate that he might be portraying a police officer.
This line perfectly defines what “Ghumpori” is all about—a tale of endless love that will make you cry and smile, yet still leave you longing for the kind of love Megh (Pritom Hasan) has for Jyoti (Tanjin Tisha). It's a love story that defies logic and makes you question how one can fall in love with someone they've never met and dedicate their entire life to fulfilling their dreams.
In observance of International Mother Language Day, the two companies have made cinema accessible to the visually impaired through audio description. The selected film for this initiative is the Chorki original “Kacher Manush Dure Thuiya”, a project under the “Ministry of Love” series.
With Pohela Falgun and Valentine’s Day around the corner, a host of web films, dramas, and songs are set to release, adding to the festive fervour. While some have already premiered, others are slated for release next week.
Pritom Hasan and Tanjin Tisha are set to star together in “Ghumpori”, a new web-film directed by Jahid Preetom.
"I wanted to spin a story for the people who still stick to the traditional during the digital times, a story to make them think"
Nusraat Faria and Afsana Mimi starrer "Patalghor" will be released on Chorki on July 27.
Shahriar Shakil, the film’s producer, confirmed the news to The Daily Star. He is currently in Kolkata, where the movie will premiere later this evening. Raihan Rafi expressed his optimism, hoping that the West Bengal audience will embrace the film as warmly as the audience in Bangladesh has.
"The response to “Mercules” has been fantastic. I was a bit nervous as this was my first web-series, but everyone liked the project and praised my acting."
Chorki's much awaited web-series "Mercules" is all set to release on June 28, and it seems all the stars have aligned together, as they took the biggest picture of Eid this year, in terms of sheer casting.
The three on-screen pairs that will be featured in the production from Runout Films will include Runa Khan(Rozina) and Shamol Mawla (Ilias); Sabnam Faria (Moushumi) and Shohel Mondol (Maruf); Nidra Neha (Purnima) and Prantar Dastider (Shubho).
Depicting the urban life, actor Shamol Mawla will reportedly play the role of a CNG driver in the film.
‘Myself Allen Swapan’, which is a spin-off to Shihab Shaheen’s ‘Syndicate’, is turning out to be one of Chorki’s most successful ventures. It has been streamed for over 200 crore minutes in 8 days, which is the highest on this streaming platform, in this time-frame.
Last night, Chorki released another interesting video which featured Rafiath Rashid Mithila as 'Shayla' in "Myself Allen Swapon".
The film will have its international premier at the film festival, which will take place on April 26. In the project, Jaya Ahsan plays the lead role.
