Veteran director Chayanika Chowdhury’s second book, “Onumoti Prarthona”, has been released at this year’s Amar Ekushey Book Fair and is available at Pavilion 20. Her first book, “Mayaghor”, was published in 2014.
A series of unsettling incidents over recent years has cast a long shadow over the fair’s foundational principles.
Mamo also expressed her deep admiration for Humayun Ahmed. Having made her acting debut in “Daruchini Dwip”, a film based on one of his stories, she won the National Film Award for her performance. "He is one of my all-time favourites. He built a vast readership, and even today, countless people still read his books. The new generation continues to buy his works. To be honest, he instilled the habit of reading in so many people. His writings are very special to me."
