The Dhaka Times Desk Like every year, the stars of the Merrill-Prothom-alo Awards have been surveyed. This time again Shakib Khan became the best. With this, he was awarded the same award seven times.
People have forgotten about native films. Once Razzak-Shabana and Sohail Rana-Babita, Sucharita-Alamgir were one of the stars of this country's films. But due to various obstacles, that film is no more. More than half of the cinema halls in Bangladesh are now closed. Thanks to satellite, people are now sitting at home watching Hindi, Bengali or English movies.
And the condition of Bengali films is also pathetic. There are two or four good films a year. But it is difficult to get viewers to see that film. The mentality of going to the cinema and watching movies is no longer there. Even in such a situation, the manufacturers do not stop. Still, thanks to some famous writers like Humayun Ahmed, the audience in this country is watching some good Bengali films.
Shakib Khan, the popular actor of Dhaka films, has bagged the award as the best film actor in the Merrill-Prothom Alo award star survey. This time Shakib has been awarded the Merrill-Prothom-alo Award seven times. This time Shakib received this award for his performance in the film 'Purnadirghya Prem Kahini' directed by Safiuddin Safi.
