Following a successful theatrical run during Eid-ul-Azha, two blockbuster Bangladeshi films—“Taandob” and “Utshob”—are now set to stream online, offering an opportunity for those who missed the cinema screenings.
I will be honest, when I received such an overwhelming response for “Utshob”, it made me feel that my responsibilities as a performer have grown to a great extent. Also, people have developed great expectations of me. So, I would never want to let them down. I want to educate myself more as a performer and take acting lessons. I’m also nearing the end of my undergraduate degree in English Literature at NSU. So, I am striving to maybe go abroad for my higher studies.
The film will start streaming from August 7. Notably, Chorki has also announced that, alongside “Utshob”, the Shakib Khan-starrer film “Taandob” will be released on the same date.
