The highly anticipated film “Dorod”, featuring Dhallywood’s leading star Shakib Khan, is scheduled to hit theatres this Friday (November 15).
Nabila concluded with an invitation to viewers, stating, “Tune in to our show to discover, learn, and appreciate Bangladesh’s traditional dishes in a fresh way. The programme will be available on Maasranga Television and the YouTube channels of Maasranga TV and Radhuni.”
The filming of Dhallywood superstar Shakib Khan’s latest movie “Borbaad” is currently underway. Under the direction of Mehdi Hasan Hridoy, the project is being shot in Mumbai, India.
Recently, the actor has been busy working across three different mediums—drama, film, and music. He is currently stationed in Shailkupa, Jhenaidah, where he is shooting a new short film titled “Nodai”, which centres around the lives of fishermen.
Now, Shakib Khan's “Toofan” is also set to be released there. However, as confirmed by the production company Alpha i, instead of Bengali, the film will be dubbed in Urdu for its Pakistani audience.
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 staying out of the public eye for nearly two months, Shakib Khan re-emerged in Dhaka, flaunting a bold new look that could easily be interpreted as being synonymous wih that of a South Indian film hero.
The film industry continues to face significant challenges as most cinemas remain closed, and the few that have reopened are struggling due to a lack of new releases. Filmmakers are hesitant to debut their projects in this climate, forcing theatre owners to rely on screening older films.
Star Cineplex, the country's first-ever multiplex, makes it a point to roll out freshly minted promotions for its audience. Their new offer allows audiences to grab a free ticket with every purchase, making the movie experience even more compelling.
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.
She earned immense popularity after portraying Hridi in the much-acclaimed film “Aynabaji”, in 2016. Masuma Rahman Nabila is now set to grace the screens after a long time, with Raihan Rafi’s film “Toofan” where the actress has paired up with Shakib Khan, for the first time. She also shared the screen with Chanchal Chowdhury in this project, who was her debut film co-actor.
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.
Over the past two years, no film featuring Shakib Khan has premiered outside the Eid season. This pattern has sparked criticism, with many speculating that Shakib avoids non-Eid releases out of fear of box office failure. True to form, Shakib Khan's latest movie, "Toofan”, is set to release this Eid-ul-Azha.
As Eid-ul-Azha approaches on June 17, 2024, film enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating the seasonal cinematic offerings. For cinema halls, this period is a vital one, as it brings a surge in audience numbers.
To promote the film, Kolkata star Mimi Chakraborty arrived in Dhaka early yesterday, having flown in from Kolkata the same afternoon. She attended a press conference held at a five-star hotel in the capital on Wednesday evening.
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.
Born and brought up in a family that practices and appreciates the art of music, Debosrie Antara officially debuted in Dhallywood with “Laage Ura Dhura” from the upcoming Shakib Khan starrer film “Toofan”. The song, composed by Pritom Hasan, has now become the party anthem of the season.
This Eid-ul-Azha, it is almost certain that three films will hit the silver screens—“Toofan”, “Moyurakkhi” and “Revenge”. These films feature three ace actresses -- Shobnom Bubly, Eamin Haque Bobby and Indian actress Mimi Chakraborty.
Herlan Bangladesh was the title sponsor, and all of its brand ambassadors, including Shakib Khan, performed and walked the ramp with some of the gorgeous ladies in showbiz.
