Aahoto Phuler Golpo - a story of three daughters

Anto Azad's new film Aahoto Phuler Golpo (A Flower in Flame) tells the story of a patriarchal Muslim society, and how information technology and cultural contacts affect and change the characters' lives. Gazi Rakayeta, Ananya Haq, Shelly Ahsan, Jaya, Sujan Mahbub, Ali Ahsan, Ovi Chowdhury, Shantto Kundu, Kamrul Hasan, Tauhidul Alam, Sajib, Rifat, Piara Begum, Shahidul Islam, Omarachand, Iqtarula Islam, Minhaj, Taji, Rabbi and Shirin all come together to star in this film, where Tahiya Khan plays the role of the protagonist. The film's story and screenplay have been written by Anto Azad, who is also the director and art director of the entire production. According to Azad, “this is not a fantasy film. I wanted to try to not only analyse but also realise the deep crisis of our common life. Although the contents of the story are serious, the story flows through our daily life's fun, songs and love stories. I hope the simple style of storytelling will touch the viewers.” Almost 95 per cent of the film has been shot in Panchagarh, in the Matiyara village of thana Debiganj. Two types of language - standard and regional – have been used in the dialogues, and the production also features a wide range of local music, including Bhawaiya, Lalon Geeti, Rabindra Shongeet and regional traditional wedding verse. In addition, Sholayman Akond and Shaheen Ahmed have written the lyrics to two original songs. The film is set to be released in January, 2017. Aahoto Phuler Golpo is a production of Green Pitch Entertainment.
