This Shihab Shaheen directorial received its censor certificate last Monday.
Providing an insight into the film, he shared, “’Daagi’ is the story of Nishan and Jarin’s love and separation. At the same time, it is also a tale of regret and repentance for these two characters. From the teaser and romantic songs that have been released, I believe the audience has already sensed this.”
Meanwhile, on Thursday, the first song from “Daagi”, titled “Ektukhani Mon”, was released. The song has been performed by Tahsan Khan and Masha Islam, with lyrics by Sadat Hossain. The music composition and arrangement were done by Sajid Sarkar. The visuals of the song feature a romantic sequence between Nisho and Tama.

The Chorki original web-film “Amalnama”, directed by Raihan Rafi, explores familiar yet unseen harsh realities. Its official poster, released on March 3, hints at a narrative involving “crossfire”, “gunfights”, and “extrajudicial killings” subtly woven into the background.
In the web-film, Tama takes on the role of Parveen, a character that she found deeply immersive. "It took me quite some time to detach myself from Parveen, even after filming ended. For days, I struggled to move on. This character is one of my personal favorites," she revealed.
