As Eid approaches, actor Tawsif Mahbub is pitching up for one of his busiest festive seasons yet. This time, the popular television star returns with the new season of the widely loved series “Bachelor Point”, while also venturing into darker territory with his web debut in “Chokro 2”. Alongside these major releases, he will also appear in several Eid dramas on the small screen. The lineup, he says, reflects a conscious decision to prioritise the audience’s taste this year rather than his own.

He first gained prominence through television dramas before expanding his career across stage and cinema. Known for his restrained, naturalistic performances, Suman belonged to a generation of actors who moved fluidly between mediums, helping shape Bangladesh’s screen culture in the late 1990s and 2000s.

Only four days remain until Eid. Ahead of the festive occasion, the Bangladesh Film Certification Board has granted screening approval to five films slated for release. The board’s Deputy Director, Md Moinuddin, confirmed the development on Monday (March 16).

The story centres on Rana and Neela, two childhood friends who grew up together in the same village and were known for their playful quarrels. As life unfolds, Neela leaves the country to pursue her studies abroad. Years later, she returns to Bangladesh and visits her village with her parents. There, she unexpectedly meets Rana, her childhood companion, setting off a series of events that shape the narrative of the drama.

Bangladesh Television is set to air its traditional Eid magazine programme “Anandamela”, featuring a lively mix of dance, music and comedy for viewers during the festival.
