Is Mahiya Mahi the next 'Big Brother' of the industry?

After her colossal success as an action girl in Agnee, Dhallywood’s new sensation Mahiya Mahi is once again up for another action flick with a brand new look. Mahi has signed for the title role of Big Brother directed by Shafi Uddin Shafi and the shoot of the production has begun recently in Dhaka.

While the male actors’ regular action stunts have been loosing appeal to the audience, Mahiya Mahi with her versatile potentials as a female actor is paving the path for female stars to experiment with their images and surprise the viewers.

Mahi will be seen as a underworld don in the film. About her new venture, she said: “As the name indicates a masculine role, the look will also reflect the same essence.  I have done a lot of physical work to don the character and I believe my effort will receive positive response as always.”

Director Shafi Uddin Shafi said: “I chose Mahi for the character due to her agile ability to adapt in different roles. Here, she grows up like a boy, talks like a man and  is careful about her female instincts.”

Mahi further described her role: “The character fights against crime, injustice and risks her life to help the poor.

“The action movie will feature challenging stunts in fantastic locations. I hope the audience will really love the action-packed flick which has much surprises in store for them,” she said. 

Mahi has created much hype amongst film lovers as a newcomer. According to Mahi and her fans, Dhallywood got a

new action heroine in terms of box office hit after the release of Agnee.
