He has been able to create his identity in the industry with his undertone, natural acting.The actor recently spoke to GreenWatch Dhaka
about his career and more.
POPULARITY IN SHOWBIZ: It’s a blessing from God. People admire me, they admire my work—this isn’t something everyone can achieve easily. I could have chosen a different career. Had I done so, I wouldn’t have got so much admiration. And this respect and admiration in turn drives me to do better, and be a more responsible actor.
CHARACTERS LIKE TO PLAY : There is no particular kind of character or role that appeals to me specifically. I am a director’s actor. I have already worked in many different and unique stories, and played a wide variety of characters. All of them have so far been well-received by the audience, and that is all I really want. So, I like to play any and every character which can bring out good work from me, and good response from the audience.
CINEMA: Every actor dreams of working in cinema. I generally do television plays, but I have gotten a number of offers for cinema. If I get a good story, character and remuneration then of course I’ll work in that film.
BEGIN CAREER: I began my career as a model. I began loving what I did and also got much mileage out of it. Eventually this led to acting gigs.
TURNING POINT : Come to think of it, there was no turning point as such. When I was modeling, I used to toy with the idea of being an actor. At one point, I just began getting assignments. Slowly and steadily, directors and viewers started appreciating my work. So there isn’t one particular play that was my turning point, all of them were turning points.
FAVORITE PLAY: Oporazita, Ekdin proggar din,Brishtider bari,Konkabotir chithi, Upokul Express, Nur alomer Cassette, Lal nil holud bati.
