The Dhaka Times Desk A festival really brings the tide of new drama production. A lot of dramas are produced every year in view of Pahela Baishakh, Eid festival. This time there is an exception. Boishakh is organized in old plays.
Today is Bengali New Year. But this time everything stopped due to the corona virus infection. Everyone has to welcome the New Year quietly at home without any festivities.
Amidst the Corona crisis, people are spending their days under house arrest. All kinds of shooting are also stopped. Therefore, no new drama is being produced on the occasion of Boishakh. The crisis of new plays has already started to emerge. Many serial dramas on television have already been closed due to not being able to shoot. TV channels are trying to organize new Baishakh at home to entertain the already confined viewers.
But all those arrangements are with old content. This time on the occasion of Pahela Boishakh, 14th April, Boishakhi Television will broadcast 3 dramas. Baisakher special drama 'Baishakher Balabosha' will be aired at 8 pm. Written and directed by Siddique, the drama stars Siddique, Ahsanul Haque Minu, Saleha Ahmed and Japanese actress Mai Atanabi.
'Jei Lau Sei Kadu-2' will be aired tonight at 9 PM. Written by Benu Sharma and directed by Al Hazen, this drama stars Rashed Shimant, Ahana, Shafiq Khan Dilu, Haider Ali, Oliul Haque Rumi and others.
'Neel Phul' will be aired at 11 pm. Directed by Chayanika Chowdhury, Mahfuz Ahmed, Bindu, Arefin Shubo acted in this drama.
It has been found that the drama 'Boishakher Balhobasa' was first aired in 2018. The drama 'Jei Lau Sei Kadu-2' was also a drama of Eid 2018. On the other hand, the drama Neel Phul is the drama of 2017. If there was no outbreak of Corona, maybe new dramas of Boishakh would have been aired instead.
Baisakhi TV Deputy Managing Director and Editor-in-Chief Tipu Alam Milan said, 'Baishakhi TV was born by cherishing the spirit of liberation war and Bengali culture. However, due to the corona virus epidemic, we do not have any arrangements for Baisakh. However, what I managed to organize was only to entertain the audience. We believe that the audience will like this arrangement of Baisakhi TV. Finally, I just want to say this, be careful, stay at home, stay well.'
In this way, old dramas will be aired on different TV channels in this year's Baisakh special event. The drama industry is worried about the upcoming Eid. Being confined at home due to Corona, everyone is waiting only for good day.
