'Ittadi': Entertainment galore


Hanif Sanket once again came up with a special episode of Ittadi on Eid. As on every Eid, special attraction of the programme were several unique features, directed, written and hosted by Sanket.

The Eid-special Ittadi began with an unusual rendition of the familiar song Ramzaner Oi Rozar Sheshey. The music video featured 14 elephants and over 1,000 artistes. The song was filmed in the scenic locales of Sylhet. A dance number performed by Shibli, Nipa, Tarin and Ishita along with 150 dancers was also enjoyable. A special musical performance by veteran singers Mostafa Zaman Abbasi and his sister Ferdousi Rahman won applause. Among other regular features were skits that featured the Nana-Nati (grandfather-grandson) duo, cutting-edge television reporting and a game show involving the audience.
