Our laws against cyberbullying are catching up: Dola Rahman

Cyberbullying is a growing global concern, intensified by rapid technological advances. Women, whether public figures or ordinary individuals, increasingly face online harassment, abusive comments, and AI-generated content, affecting their mental health and social life—often worsened by victim-blaming. Many of these acts are criminal offences, yet questions remain about accountability and legal protection. To explore these issues, we spoke with singer Dola Rahman, a Barrister-at-Law and Advocate of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh.

16 Days of Activism / Enough is enough: Showbiz women clap back at virtual harassment

Whether an actor, athlete, singer, journalist, a corporate, or as a woman, they have to carry the burden of such acts regularly. Every form of abuse must be addressed. And in this era of technology, where it takes seconds to post a derogatory comment, the response should be just as swift. Clear rules are needed to ensure that accounts can be properly identified, regulated, and held accountable. Without this, we only empower abusers to continue.

I would never disrespect a woman: Irfan Sajjad

The goal is to push Asian cinema forward: Manoj Pramanik

“Being a student after a long time was quite interesting — that too when I am a teacher myself,” shared actor Manoj Pramanik, who recently returned from Busan, South Korea, after seven months.

‘It’s awkward and bewildering’: Runa Khan on online misuse of her videos

“I’ve noticed for a long time that many fake pages are using my photos and video interviews, claiming I lost weight by using their products,” said Runa. “But what can I even say to them? I’ve shared my real journey so many times—it’s been more than four years now. And when I see my own colleagues involved in such activities, using these products, or even going through surgeries, I honestly have nothing more to say.”
