Siam and Tushi's 'Abar Dekha Hole' to release on Eid-ul-Fitr, with Chanchal Chowdhury
Siam Ahmed and Nazifa Tushi have paired up in Shankha Dasgupta's film 'Abar Dekha Hole'. The film will release on the coming Eid-ul-Fitr, in the first week of March. The film was formally announced recently.
Siam and Tushi had earlier paired up in Raihan Rafi's film 'Andhar'. It was their first film together. Andhar was scheduled to release last October, but it was postponed at the last moment. Under the new announcement, the film will release on 26 March next year.
As a result, the Siam-Tushi pair will make their screen debut with 'Abar Dekha Hole', the second film they acted in, because it is releasing first.
Reports of Siam and Tushi acting in Shankha Dasgupta's film had been heard since the start of this month. But the makers and the actors had stayed silent. The formal announcement finally came yesterday.
Chanchal Chowdhury will also star alongside Siam and Tushi in Abar Dekha Hole. Chanchal acted in Andhar, the pair's first film, as well.
The film's other cast members include Dipa Khondokar, Azizul Hakim, Bijori Barkatullah and Rezwan Parvez.
The film is produced by Filmi Features. OTT platform Chorki has joined as co-producer and official digital partner.
Shankha Dasgupta said the story of Abar Dekha Hole revolves around society's middle class. It has emotion, family values and a family atmosphere, along with real-life conflict and drama. There is also humour built around the central emotion.
The director added: 'It is essentially a story of finding oneself again. There is so much within that finding that it is hard to describe piece by piece. It will be easier if viewers think of themselves. The feelings and situations one must pass through to get back one's lost time, to look for it, to question it or to seek its reasons — the film's story has been arranged in that way. I feel every viewer will be able to relate it to themselves.'
Abar Dekha Hole is Shankha Dasgupta's second film. He earlier made 'Priyo Maloti'. His OTT work 'Cha Gorom' was also praised.
The director said Abar Dekha Hole is a drama that can be enjoyed in theatres with family members of all ages. The film's screenplay was written by Md. Saifullah Riyad.
