Shimarekha, a film produced by the directors of two Bengals to reinforce cultural ties, gets uncut censor certificate. Many artistes from Bangladesh and Kolkata have acted in the big budget film produced by Dewan Nazmul and renowned Kolkata filmmaker Swapan Saha. Another interesting aspect of this uncensored film is that, it is about to introduce new big-screen couple Fahim and Fariha.
After the completion of the shooting, the film was submitted to the censor board where it received appreciation and approval of the members of the board after they watched the film. After receiving the certificate for uncut censor, Dewan Nazmul enthusiastically shares: “It is quite an achievement, it feels like my child finally got to see the light of the day. The appreciation and approval of the film by the censor board members have given a boost to my work. I don’t want to make romantic films only, as a responsible member of the society, I want to make films that focus on social issues. For this reason, none of my films are similar in nature. In the meantime, I have also completed hooting another film titled Nakphul.”
About the story of Shimarekha, Nazmul said: “It is a unique love story between a girl from the other Bengal Shreya and a boy from this side of the fence Babai. Through rose tinted glasses, the lovelorn couple strives to overcome all odds against societal
and religious barrier that chases them. To see the result of their struggle, the audience will have to wait till Valentine’s day.”
