“Being a student after a long time was quite interesting — that too when I am a teacher myself,” shared actor Manoj Pramanik, who recently returned from Busan, South Korea, after seven months. The actor-turned-producer came back with a renewed and deeper understanding of the world of cinema. During his time there, he attended a film production course at the Busan Asian Film School (AFiS). Manoj has been teaching at the Department of Film and Media Studies at Jatiya Kabi Kazi Nazrul Islam University since 2016.
The storyline of “Agantuk” revolves around a 10-year-old boy named Kajol. He lives with his mother and ailing grandmother, struggling to make ends meet. One day, his long-lost father, who had disappeared for years, returns as a stranger to the family. The film explores the tensions, dilemmas, and conflicts that emerge from his unexpected arrival.
