Eid memories

However, with time comes change, and for Basar, that change has brought a more grounded, purposeful experience. “Nowadays, we go on our own, with a sense of duty. My father, my brother, and I—all of us take this responsibility seriously,” shared the Networker Baire actor. “Choosing the sacrificial animal is no longer just an adventure; it’s a significant task. The entire day becomes a mix of tradition, responsibility, and spiritual fulfilment. I personally see to everything—from selecting the animal to ensuring the process is carried out properly.”

A film enthusiast, Aisha’s Eid celebrations often include a trip to the theaters. “I’ve always been a big fan of Marvel and DC movies,” she beams. “But recently, my love for Bangla cinema has grown stronger.
