Now, a new project has entered the fray in this race, starring Puja Chery. The film "Agantuk", directed by Suman Dhar, which also features Shamol Mawla, has already received censor clearance.

Zahid Hasan Ovi, the film distributor, told the media that "Agantuk" was earlier slated to be released on Valentine's Day, however, due to the announcement of the release of Shakib Khan starrer film "Dorod", it was postponed.

He also mentioned that another film under their distribution, "Jongli", could not complete their production, hence the release was halted. 

Adding to this he further stated that "Agantuk" will be released in all the multiplexes and it might be available on the single screens as well.

Shooting of "Agantuk" was completed two years ago, however, due to the completion of its post-production work, the film took a long time to get to the screens.
