Hossain described “Delupi” as “an astonishingly fine picture,” adding that he was delighted to see word-of-mouth gradually drawing more viewers. He urged audiences not to wait. With so few screens, he warned, anyone who delays may miss their chance altogether.

The premiere screening of the film “Delupi” was held on Wednesday at the Darun Mallik Primary School field in Deluti Union, Paikgacha upazila of Khulna.
