Apurbo debuts in silver screen as action hero

Popular TV actor Apurbo emerges as an action hero of silver screen through Ashikur Rahman's upcoming film "Gangstar."   Fans of Apurbo are in for a pleasant surprise, as they will get to see their "romantic hero" in actions of gun fighting and some daring stunts.     Apurbo, who had no specific plan for working in films, is overwhelmed by having the opportunity. "I wanted everything“ from script to co-artists to be perfect to debut in the world of cinema. Hence, 'Gangster' is really a promising one to start the journey with.    Few years back Apurbo started shooting for the film “Brishti Din” by Morshedul Hasan, but the film was stopped abruptly for some unavoidable reason.    Ashikur Rahman is also debuting as a film director with the same venture. Earlier, Ashikur started shooting for "Gangstar" to make it a drama series for the channel Asian TV. However, the channel officials, after watching some footages of the drama, became very excited and shifted their plans to make it even bigger. The second phase shooting, eventually the first phase as a film, of “Gangster” will begin from tomorrow.   "I believe I can adopt to any kind of character as I am an actor by profession and also by passion. However, the audience has never seen me in this kind of role and breaking my set notion as a romantic hero is the most challenging and exciting part for me. But I am very hopeful that my new avatar would be well accepted."   Pia and Arabi will be seen opposite to Apurbo in this film.
