Now Bunty apologises for remark on Shaon

Just a day after Meher Afroz Shaon filed a general diary (GD) against Bunty Mir, the vlogger (video blogger) apologised for his remarks regarding the actress over Facebook.

On his Facebook wall, Bunty, who is now in New York, today posted: “All of you please forgive me, I was highly rebuked, please do not rebuke me more. May Allah forgive me.”

In an earlier post, Bunty said: “I did a mistake by telling the secret of a person, don’t know Allah would forgive me or not. May Allah forgive me with his mercy -Ameen.”

Bunty’s remarks in the video following Shaon’s concern about ‘Doob’, directed by Mostafa Sarwar Farooki, which according to her is made based on some incidents on Humayun Ahmed's life, drew huge criticism.

Though Bunty apologies, in his very latest post, he defends himself blaming Shaon once again.

Last afternoon, Shaon lodged the GD with Dhanmondi Police Station against Bunty Mir.

In the GD, she alleged that Bunty tarnished her reputation by saying ugly, false and baseless words and rumours about her through social media sites including Facebook and YouTube, said Abdul Latif, officer-in-charge (OC) of Dhanmondi Police Station.

Shaon, wife of late Humayun Ahmed alleged that the film could portray Humayun Ahmed in bad light and requested the censor board to review it for such instances and take action.

She issued an official letter to the Bangladesh Film Censor Board (BFCB) explaining her concerns about the film on February 13.

Mostafa Sarwar Farooki’s Irrfan Khan-starrer movie ‘Doob’ has come under fiery debate recently centering complaints of its being modelled upon the life of celebrated Bengali writer Humayun Ahmed.

Taking her complaints under consideration, BFDC suspended its no-objection certificate (NOC) to the film on February 16, just a day after issuing it, upon request from Information Ministry to halt the release of the movie temporarily. As a result, the uncertainty has surfaced regarding the release of the movie.

Scheduled to be released this April, ‘Doob’ was screened by BFDC committee for reviewing scripts of joint venture films on February 12, 2017 and was given a no-objection certificate (NOC) on February 15.
