The second instalment of the widely discussed short film series “Immigrant Diaries”, titled “Eid Mubarak”, has officially been released, drawing praise for its portrayal of the struggles and realities of immigrant life.

For Khairul Basar, “Bonolota Sen”, directed by Masud Hasan Ujjal, has been as much a creative gamble as it has been a career-defining artistic journey — one shaped by uncertainty, fragmented direction, and an unusually long process of discovery.

The movie is an adaptation of a Humayun Ahmed book, but two screenwriters gave it life for the screen

Bengali film director Anik Dutta passed away today at a private hospital in South Kolkata, according to reports by Anandabazar. He was 66.

Another major spark this Eid season comes through the literary adaptation of “Masud Rana”, one of Bangladesh’s most iconic fictional characters. Adapted from the beloved spy-thriller series created by Qazi Anwar Hussain, the film arrives carrying decades of nostalgia and towering audience expectations.

A week-long celebrity podcast series bringing together some of Dhallywood’s leading actresses is set to air this Eid-ul-Azha under the title “Nayoker Nayika”, hosted by actor Nirab Hossain.

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.

So far, Star Cineplex has received the DCPs for "Roid", "Malik", "Pinik", and "Bonolota Sen". However, the DCPs for "Rockstar" and "Masud Rana" are yet to arrive.

Titled “Jochhona”, the song will premiere on G-Series’ YouTube channel on the eve of Eid. The track has been written by Samuel Haque, composed by Prince Mahmud, and performed by Tanzir Tuhin, with music arrangement by Shaker Raza.

After the massive cultural impact of “Hawa”, expectations surrounding Mejbaur Rahman Sumon’s upcoming release “Roid” have only continued to grow. Describing the film, he shares that it is not merely a love story, but an attempt to rediscover emotional depth, silence, and fading cultural identities in contemporary life.

As the Eid-ul-Azha box office fills with star-driven spectacles and commercial entertainers, one of the season’s most intriguing releases is arriving from an entirely different space. After winning over audiences at two festivals — DIFF and Amar Bhashar Cholochitro — and earning multiple awards, “The University of Chankharpul”, directed by young filmmaker Akash Haque, has now joined the Eid release race.

K-pop group BTS returned to the American Music Awards stage after four years with a special appearance at the 2026 ceremony held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

As “Rockstar” prepares for its Eid release, one of the biggest talking points, beyond Shakib Khan’s transformation, has been its music. As a full-fledged musical film – still a rarity in mainstream Bangladeshi cinema – “Rockstar” places its soundtrack at the centre of its narrative.

Arifin Shuvoo and Bidya Sinha Mim’s action film “Malik” is set for release this Eid-ul-Azha. The makers recently unveiled the film’s trailer, promising high-octane action and intense drama, which has already generated considerable buzz among audiences.

Bengal Multimedia had initially announced the release of “Nakphuler Kabbo” during Eid-ul-Azha. However, no promotional activities were observed around the film, and the production house has now officially withdrawn it from the Eid release race.

Meghdol is all set to entertain audiences with its much-awaited concert, “Echoes of Eternity”, scheduled for May 30, the third day of Eid.

Television channels are bringing a wide range of celebrity shows, magazine programmes, and festive specials to audiences this Eid-ul-Azha, with line-ups featuring music, comedy, performances, celebrity conversations, and light-hearted debates.

With six films currently eyeing release this Eid-ul-Azha, director Masud Hasan Ujjal is stepping into the festive release race with quiet confidence and a deeply personal cinematic philosophy. His upcoming film, “Bonolota Sen”, arrives years after his acclaimed feature “Unoponchash Batash”.

This Eid-ul-Azha, Bangladesh’s music industry is gearing up with a wave of new releases spanning folk fusion, romantic ballads and contemporary pop tracks. Alongside major production houses, many artists are also releasing songs through their personal YouTube channels.

Acclaimed director Chayanika Chowdhury is set to present a new Eid special telefilm titled “Abar Hobe Dekha”, based on a foreign story and written by Faria Hossain.
