In a spectacular showcase of Bengali cinema's finest talents, Mejbaur Rahman Sumon's directorial film "Hawa" emerged as a triumphant victor at the Suchitra Sen International Bengali Film Festival 2024 held at the iconic Jamaica Performing Arts Center (JPAC) in New York.

However, three years later, both the director and producer announced that the film would proceed without government funding, under a new arrangement. Jaya Ahsan has already returned the initial instalment of the grant.
