To help you unwind this Eid, we have put together a list of three new Bangladeshi films you should not miss.
Antarjal
Antarjal, directed by Dipankar Dipon, will be released just before Eid al-Adha. Media sites report that final touches are being put on the cyber-thriller, and it will soon be submitted for censorship approval. The filmmaker said that, with its use of robotics, cyberwarfare, drones, and holographs, this movie was one of the most challenging projects he has ever undertaken. He promised that the movie will be out in time for Eid. The two producers are Sadekur Arifin and Shah Amir Khosru.
Antarjal is the first cybercrime thriller film in Bangladesh. In the trailer, a masked hacker can be seen trying to create unrest in the country and cyber security officers struggling to get to the end of the chaos.
Cast: Siam Ahmed, Bidya Sinha Mim, ABM Sumon and Sunerah Binte Kamal
Priyotoma
Priyotoma, directed by Himel Ashraf, stars Shakib Khan, and Idhika Paul from Kolkata. With the release of a new poster on social media, the first look at the film was shown, showing Shakib Khan in a new rough avatar, complete with long hair, a lengthy beard, and a harsh expression adorning his face.
Arshad Adnan, owner of Versatile Media, is the producer of the romantic action drama. Meanwhile, Faruk Hossain wrote the film’s screenplay.
Cast: Shakib Khan, Idhika Paul, Arifin Shuvoo and Shahiduzzaman Selim
Prohelika
Audiences are getting excited to see Prohelika, directed by Chayanika Chowdhury and starring Mahfuz Ahmed and Shobnom Bubly. People were taken aback by Nasir Uddin Khan’s appearance as Jamshed in the poster of the movie Prohelika, after he had previously played a series of eccentrically villain roles in other productions. The buzz around the first song from the film, Megher Nouka has only increased since its release. The film was produced by Jamal Hossain, and narrative, dialogue, and screenplay was written by Pantha Shahriar.
Cast: Mahfuz Ahmed, Shobnom Bubly, Nasir Uddin Khan, Rashed Mamun Apu, A K Azad Shetu, Rahmat Ali and Sabiha Zaman.
