Graceful actress Sumaiya Shimu will appear in a new TV series titled “Lake Drive Lane” which will be aired on television channel Ntv from tomorrow. In the drama, she shared screen with Ziaul Faruq Apurba.
The television series will be aired on every Monday and Tuesday at 8:20pm.
Talking to the Dhaka Tribune, Sumaiya said: “In the TV series I am playing the role of a simple girl who has come to Dhaka from a small town. She is struggling to earn livelihood. She needs to earn money to maintain her family as her father was disappeared.”
“Due to desperate need of money, I got involved in such tasks which is questionable in term of morality,” she explained her character.
The plot of the story revolves around a house where Sumaiya works as a ghost-writer and she writes the biography of a person named Lutfar Rahman. But Lutfar’s son lured her to work for him in exchange of huge amount of money. At one stage, she agreed to do so. Then the son hired Sumaiya to steal a will paper from the house as his father wants to give his assets to one of his nephew.
“The story talks about moral values of doing such thing, on the other hand it also gives an insight story of a girl who is struggling to earn money and doing such tasks she expresses her pain and guilt. In a way the character is negative but looking the other side there is a meaning to commit a crime,” Sumaiya said.
“We have finished shooting eleven episodes and there will be hundred and four episodes.”
