Bidya Sinha Mim’s quarantine times
National Award-winning actor Bidya Sinha Mim started her career with Lux Channel i Superstar. Amar Ache Jol, directed by Humayun Ahmed was her debut film. The actor was busy with modeling and films. In a candid chat with The Daily Star, she speaks about her works and current situation in the country.
What were the last projects you
worked on?
I worked on an advertisement for Lux recently. I last worked on the movie, Ittefaq. Currently, all the projects are postponed due to the Coronavirus spread.
How are you spending your time now?
As all the shootings are closed for now, I am staying home. I work out in the morning, and then I read the newspaper for some time. I read books, watch movies and listen to music most of the time. I took up gardening, and enjoy taking care of my own garden a lot. I am also spending time with my parents.
What are the books you are reading?
I bought the Himu collection from the Boi Mela this year. Humayun Ahmed is my favourite author, and I have read several of his books. Though I read a few Himu books before, I never got a chance to read the whole collection. As I am staying home and quarantining myself, I am spending time with my books as well.
Do you have anything to say to readers in these troubling times?
The most important thing is to be careful. I would request everyone to not go out unless it's an emergency. Stay away from crowded places, stop going for gatherings, hangouts. Maintaining proper hygiene when you're staying home is also very important. Everyone should be careful and aware other people of the situation as well.
