The Vicky Zahed-directed film, titled “Andhokarer Gaan”, revolves around a love story at its core. Apu plays the son of a wealthy man, a young individual struggling with drug addiction.
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 a hiatus of about six years, Puja is working with Raihan Rafi again. “I am a bit nervous about what will happen. I previously worked on two hit projects with him, “Poramon-2” and “Dohon”, in the same year. For the first time, I will be starring in a web project directed by him. Also, sharing the screen with Rubel bhai is another reason why I am nervous. I hope it will be well-received by the audience."
Rafi has hinted that the story of “Black Money” is a significant departure from his usual narratives, expressing his excitement about working on this unique project. He also hinted that the cast reveal will surprise many. Meanwhile, there are rumours that film actor Rubel may join the cast, though both Rafi and the production company have opted to keep all official announcements for the press event.
Last Eid-ul-Azha, filmmaker Raihan Rafi created a buzz by directing “Toofan” starring Dhallywood’s megastar Shakib Khan. At the end of the movie, it is hinted that “Toofan 2” will be coming.
Rafi, known for his hit films like “Poran” and “Damal,” among others broke the news about this next venture yesterday. Speaking to Bangla Tribune, he revealed, “My next film, which is slated for release during the upcoming Eid, is titled ‘Lion’. It will feature two leading men—Jeet from Tollywood and Razz from Dhallywood. Everything else you’ve heard is just rumours.”
Yesterday, the film, presented by the beauty brand Lily, premiered on the OTT platform Binge. Alongside the main cast and director, the premiere was attended by several celebrities, including Bidya Sinha Mim, Prarthana Fardin Dighi, Samira Khan Mahi, Rukaiya Jahan Chamak, and Senior Operative Director Hasan Faruk of Remark HB, among others.
“This character has many dimensions,” Sarika shared. “I was fortunate to have the opportunity to portray such a complex role, and I gave my best to become Maya. I hope the audience appreciates the effort.”
Zahid Hasan has been appearing less frequently in TV dramas, primarily due to dissatisfaction with the storylines. This led him to consciously reduce the number of projects he takes on. News of his acting endeavours has since become rare.
The production house also shared that "Toofan” will be running in 22 theatres in America this week. However, the number of theatres will exceed 50 by July 12.
The Shakib Khan starrer latest Eid release, “Toofan”, has captivated audiences and reached unprecedented popularity. The film accumulated significant attention both locally and internationally. The Dhallywood superstar is now in high demand across various media outlets. Recently, he participated in an exclusive interview with the Indian Express, delving into his distinguished career and offering insights on a range of subjects.
After its regional success, with local theatres extending their shows to manage the immense audience the film is drawing, "Toofan" is poised to captivate audiences in West Bengal, India.
Several movies, songs, and OTT content have hit the screens and digital platforms during Eid ul-Azha, garnering significant attention and applause from audiences. Among them, the spotlight has prominently shone on the movie "Toofan", directed by Raihan Rafi.
Today, the much awaited Shakib Khan starrer ‘’Toofan” finally arrived in cinemas. 123 halls are screening the Raihan Rafi directorial project.
The trailer opens with a chilling voiceover from Chanchal Chowdhury, describing the titular character, Toofan, with the lines: "He is not humane, he is not savage either, Toofan is what he wanted to be…monster (rakkhosh)." This sets the tone for the dark and intense journey of Toofan, portrayed by Shakib Khan, from his adolescence to his rise as a notorious national-level criminal.
The release of the energetic title track of “Toofan” (titled after the film) several days ago, amped up its reception across social media platforms almost immediately. Notably, Tahsan Shuvo, the man behind many title tracks for Bengali films, was also the one who penned the lyrics of the song.
Shakib Khan's latest film, "Toofan”, is set to premiere on Eid-ul-Azha, and advance ticket sales began 10 days prior to the release. Remarkably, 40 percent of tickets for the initial days have already been sold.
Since the teaser of the song “Lage Ura Dhura” from the film “Toofan” was released last Saturday, anticipation for the full song grew rapidly among fans. Today, the makers have finally released the song to celebrate Shakib Khan’s silver jubilee in showbiz.
Upon receiving the concerning letter today noon, the director of the web-film, Raihan Rafi, pressed home his protest and concern over the undue censorship of the film’s content, stating it is against the creative freedom of filmmakers.
