“I played the role of a Birangona in “Ora 11 Jon”, the first full-length film based on Bangladesh’s Liberation War. I did not receive a National Film Award for that performance either, although others did. That has been very painful for me. I hope those responsible for these matters will look into it.”

The unity and vigour with which our people fought back indeed are needed to combat the challenges of tomorrow.

Chorki celebrates Independence Day with 6 special films and a web-series themed around the Liberation War of Bangladesh.
