“I am often amazed by how far theatre has progressed. We used to do it just for the love of it; today, artistes do it as a profession; like it's their job to do. There have definitely been positives; many artistes have emerged and there are more plays, but since life has become so difficult now, it would be foolish to expect of anyone to be dedicated deeply and solely to theatre.”

Ferdausi Majumdar, in an interview with The Daily Star about theatre artistes' of yesteryears and now.
