‘Bapjaner Bioscope’ returns

Bapjaner Bioscope, presented by Karukaj Films, has been reported to go for alternative screening at a yet-to-be-specified area within the country. Sanjida Tanmoy, Shahiduzzaman Selim and Shatabdi Wadud shall be starring in the film, which was previously released in theaters on December 18 last year, but for unknown circumstances, it was taken out again a day later.

The campaign for the film commenced in Chittagong and is currently screening in Kushtia from February 21 to 23. The film’s cast and crew were present on the occasion.

A directorial debut for Reazul Rezu, the film is written by Masum Reza, who expressed: “We tried to make a real Bangladeshi film, ones we used to watch with our parents and family when we were kids. Simultaneously, we made an effort to make it intriguing to contemporary viewers as well.”

The director complained that when his film was first released across 42 theaters, it was taken out just a day after. This resulted from a catalyst being stirred by a group of conspirators who were against the film. Ultimately, audiences from all over the country missed an opportunity to watch it.

The director said that he had no other option but to go for an alternative screening for Bapjaner Bioscope, which shall take place in Dhaka after the campaigns in Khulna and Tangail.
