Cinema halls turn to old films to stay afloat as new releases stall

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. 

New Bengali film hits theatres today after hiatus

On July 12, Shabnam Ferdousi's “Ajob Karkhana” was the last movie to be released in cinemas. Since then, no new films have been released due to the unrest surrounding the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, the fall of the Awami League government, and the formation of an interim government.

Crisis looms over local film industry

The nation faced widespread disruption and violence during the anti-discrimination student movement, which also took a toll on the film industry. Although the situation began to stabilise after the interim government assumed control, filmmakers are hesitant to release their movies. As a result, release dates are being postponed repeatedly, with no clear indication of when new films will hit the screens.
