Bidya Sinha Mim is returning to the big screen this Eid-ul-Azha with her much-anticipated film “Malik”. Known for several acclaimed performances throughout her career, the actress made her silver screen debut in Humayun Ahmed’s “Amar Ache Jol”. Among her most talked-about works remains “Poran”, which was also released during an Eid season.

With Eid-ul-Azha drawing near, filmmaker Saif Chandan is still caught in the whirlwind of last-minute work for his upcoming film “Malik”. Speaking candidly from India, where he is currently occupied with post-production responsibilities, the director reflected on the chaos surrounding the release, the challenges of promotion, and why audiences should give the film a chance this Eid.

The film “Pinik”, directed by Zahid Jewel, is among the highly anticipated releases this Eid, starring Ador Azad and Bubly. Joining the festive lineup, Shakib Khan, Siam Ahmed and Afran Nisho will also bring their latest project to the audience.

Industry insiders point to one major cause: The reluctance of production companies. In the current political climate, investors are hesitant to back new films. Producers prefer to wait until the situation in the country stabilises before committing to any major projects.
