A fighter rooster will be the central character of an undergoing film Lal Moroger Jhuti, aptly translated as “The Red comb of a Rooster.” The director of the film and his assistants were spotted trying out several roosters for screen-tests. Celebrated filmmaker, Nurul Alam Atique, will be seen directing a film after a long break since his Dubshatar release in 2010.
As the film is now in the pre-production stage, the screenwriter-filmmaker is seen trying out different types of fighter rooster to find the suitable one for the film’s central character. Literally, the crew of the film exhausted all their physical and mental resources to find out the suitable one. The film is set torelease next January and be screened at selected locations in the country’s northern districts and in some places in the capital.
Apart from the rooster as the lead, the other major roles are not confirmed yet but the source revealed that the casting directors spent hectic days to make the cast list.
The film’s story, based on the liberation war of Bangladesh, has been written by Nasiruddin Yousuff, which already garnered the National Film Grant, a subsidiary fund awarded by the government of Bangladesh.
