In a musical crossover, popular rapper Jalali Shafayat and renowned singer-composer Balam have teamed up for a song for the upcoming Arifin Shuvoo-starrer “Neelchokro”, releasing this Eid-ul-Azha. The duo collaborated on “Ei Ondhokarer Shohore”, which not only features Shafayat’s vocals but also marks his acting debut in cinema.
Actor Arifin Shuvoo has returned to the spotlight by surprising fans with a 19-second teaser posted on his official Facebook page yesterday evening. Since announcing signing on “Neelchakra” last year, he had not posted anything about it. However, he captioned the teaser, declaring, “It’s coming,” and sparked widespread speculation and excitement.
The Bangladeshi film “Neelchokro” has been officially selected for the Foreign Language category at the 8th Golden State Film Festival 2025. The festival will take place in Los Angeles, USA, from February 14 to February 21.
The month of December typically witnesses a surge in films based on the Liberation War, but this year has been an exception. However, as the year draws to a close, a Liberation War-themed film is making its mark. “Nakshi Kathar Zamin” hits cinemas across the country today.

Filmmaker Asif Islam has officially unveiled some details regarding the upcoming big screen project “Jatri”. Actress Jannatul Ferdous Oishee, known more famously as Miss World Bangladesh 2020, is taking on the lead role.
The film industry continues to face significant challenges as most cinemas remain closed, and the few that have reopened are struggling due to a lack of new releases. Filmmakers are hesitant to debut their projects in this climate, forcing theatre owners to rely on screening older films.
In an exclusive interview with The Daily Star, Mondera shared, "I have signed two new films. The shooting has been delayed due to the current political situation, but I hope to start soon. One of the films is a Bangladeshi production, and the other is a Bengali film from Kolkata."

The nation faced widespread disruption and violence during the anti-discrimination student movement, which also took a toll on the film industry. Although the situation began to stabilise after the interim government assumed control, filmmakers are hesitant to release their movies. As a result, release dates are being postponed repeatedly, with no clear indication of when new films will hit the screens.
