To honour and reminise Humayun Ahmed’s works, Impress Telefilms Ltd, has hand picked one of his many legendary works, Krishnopokkho, which is to be in theatres from February 26.
Krishnopokkho is about the love between two siblings, Aro and Muhib. Muhib has to face the strict rules of his brother-in-law when he stays with his only sister Zeba. Struggling through all the dos and don’ts, the two siblings continue to live by the grace of love that they have for each other. At one point, Oru arrives in Muhib’s life as his love interest. He starts to dream of rebuilding a life with Oru.
The movie, directed by Meher Afroz Shaon, is based on the late author’s novel “Krishnopokkho.” Riaz, Mahia Mahi, Ferdous Ahmed, Azad Abul Kalam, Tania Ahmed, Jayanto Chattopadhyay, Tarik Swapan, Arfan Ahmed, Masud Akhond, Jhuna Chowdhury, and Joyita Moholanobish have starred in the movie among others.
