As Eid-ul-Fitr continues to be celebrated today, social media is buzzing with festive greetings. Celebrities from both film and television have also shared their warm wishes with fans. Let’s take a glimpse at how the stars are marking the occasion.
As always, the special “Ityadi” Eid episode will be aired on Bangladesh Television on the night following Eid, right after the 8pm Bengali news. “Ityadi” is written, directed, and hosted by Hanif Sanket and produced by Fagun Audio Vision.
Set against the backdrop of Old Dhaka's Sutrapur, “Prem Bhai” sheds light on the unique struggles of this neighbourhood. Though there are various social issues in the area, the drama primarily focuses on one particular problem that drives the story forward.
Filming for the project began on January 23 in the lush, scenic beauty of Jaflong in Sylhet—a fitting backdrop for a love story that producer Mohammad Mostafa Kamal Raz believes will enhance the romance at the heart of the narrative. Raz shared that the film's location was carefully selected to emphasise the story’s emotional and visual richness, capturing the raw beauty of nature as the tale of love unfolds around it.
Breaking away from his conventional comedic roles, the popular small-screen actor is eager to challenge himself as an actor. From playing a serial killer to a professor and now a rockstar, he is ready to mould himself to fit each performance.
This project also marked Tawsif Mahbub’s OTT debut, which received an enthusiastic response from viewers. “My very first OTT project is getting a spin-off, which means the audience loved it. I’m thankful to them. My TV drama debut was with ‘All Time Dourer Upor’, and now ‘Chokro’ on OTT. These first projects will always be special to me.”
Even though the floodwaters in the flood-affected regions of Bangladesh have begun to recede, many areas in Lakshmipur and Feni are far from returning to normal. The flood victims continue to face numerous challenges. More recently, actors Tawsif Mahbub and Tanjin Tisha came forward to help the villagers who have been affected by the flood.
On the evening of July 4, CMV's YouTube channel premiered one of the Eid specials “Love Sab” featuring Tawsif Mahbub and Tanjim Saiara Totini. The ensemble cast further includes Kingkor Ahsan, Jibon Roy, Ira,, Pauline, Masum Rezwan, Munna, Muhit, Sneha, and others.
The Eid-ul-Azha drama “Chander Haat” has soared to the number one trending spot on YouTube in Bangladesh. This humorous and heartfelt fiction, set in a cattle market, unfolds themes of love and humanity. The final scene, which reveals the tragedy faced by a poor family, has deeply moved many viewers.
Meanwhile, two trailers from the three dramas have already been revealed, while one is yet to be released. Further updates will be announced alongside the release date of each drama on CMV’s Facebook page.
Speaking about his new Eid production, the director stated that every person is suffering from depression in one way or another, and this production gives a glimpse into their condition while in depression.
After “Rehnuma”, famed director Vicky Zahed will once again be pairing up with Mehazabien Chowdhury and Tawsif Mahbub, for his new OTT production, “Kajoler Dinratri”. The OTT film greeted the audience on the first day of the new year on Deepto Play.
This year went very well for me. I spent a lot of time with my family this year, that's why I didn't do many projects this year. My wife noticed that and told me to pay more attention to my work, as I had not been giving enough attention to my projects for the previous two or three months.
Tawsif Mahbub is a young actor, who has successfully captured the hearts of many in Bangladesh.
Before he became a successful model and a heartthrob actor, Tawsif Mahbub dreamt of being a musician.
