After spending two nights behind bars, actor Nusraat Faria yesterday walked out of jail after securing bail in an attempted murder case tied to last year’s July uprising.
Did good sense triumph? Or was it an outrageous travesty? The comments on social media suggest that most people feel it was clearly the latter. And these comments all centre around the same questions
Following her release, a statement was posted on Faria’s official Facebook page, where she opened up about her physical and emotional state, thanking those who supported her during the ordeal.
She was released from the jail hours after she was granted bail in an attempted murder case tied to the July uprising.
This arrest is particularly jarring, even in this current environment where arbitrary murder cases are being filed against suspected AL sympathisers or beneficiaries.
A Dhaka court yesterday sent actor Nusraat Faria to jail in connection with an attempted murder case linked to the July uprising.
Actress Nusraat Faria’s arrest in an alleged attempted murder case has drawn widespread criticism from prominent artistes and cultural figures, especially those who were vocal during the July uprising. Faria was detained at Dhaka’s Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport on Sunday, May 18, while attempting to travel to Thailand, and was later sent to prison following a court order on Monday, May 19.

Following the arrest, Cultural affairs adviser Mostofa Sarwar Farooki addressed the issue in a Facebook post.
Nusraat Faria had a bittersweet experience while acting in “Mujib: The Making of a Nation”. Initially, her casting as Sheikh Hasina was met with praise, but following the fall of the Awami League government, she faced major backlash on social media.

Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations are never complete without the spectacle of captivating heroines gracing the silver screen. This year, audiences are in for a treat as a constellation of talented actresses—Tama Mirza, Sunerah Binte Kamal, Shobnom Yesmin Bubly, Nusraat Faria, and Prarthana Fardin Dighi—prepare to enthrall viewers with their performances. Let's delve into the films that will spotlight these leading ladies this Eid-ul-Fitr.
Although Eid-ul-Fitr is still a little while away, audiences are ardently anticipating the films scheduled for release during the festive season.
Starring Abdun Noor Shajal and Nusraat Faria, “Jinn 3” is currently in production under the direction of Kamruzzaman Roman. The film commenced shooting earlier this month in Munshiganj, with the cast and crew returning to Dhaka on Monday (February 17) after completing sequences in Nawabganj.
Nader Chowdhury’s directorial debut “Jinn” created quite a buzz among audiences, with actor Shajal Noor in the lead role. Following its success, “Mona: Jinn-2” was produced, but Shajal was not part of the cast. Now, “Jinn 3” is set to go into production, featuring actor Shajal in the lead, once again.
The film, set to begin shooting in February, is the latest instalment of Jaaz’s popular supernatural franchise that first premiered in 2023, capturing the audience’s intrigue with its dark, eerie atmosphere.
Actress Nusraat Faria has been keeping herself under the radar for quite some time. Her last notable appearance was in the film “Mujib: The Making of a Nation,” where she played the role of a young Sheikh Hasina, the former Prime Minister. This is largely why the actress has stepped back from the limelight.
Bangladeshi film actress, singer, and model Nusraat Faria still finds herself in a difficult position — her name continues to be associated with a former prime minister across social media discussions, often with negative undertones.
