Arifin Shuvoo and Bidya Sinha Mim’s action film “Malik” is set for release this Eid-ul-Azha. The makers recently unveiled the film’s trailer, promising high-octane action and intense drama, which has already generated considerable buzz among audiences.

Bengal Multimedia had initially announced the release of “Nakphuler Kabbo” during Eid-ul-Azha. However, no promotional activities were observed around the film, and the production house has now officially withdrawn it from the Eid release race.

Television channels are bringing a wide range of celebrity shows, magazine programmes, and festive specials to audiences this Eid-ul-Azha, with line-ups featuring music, comedy, performances, celebrity conversations, and light-hearted debates.

With six films currently eyeing release this Eid-ul-Azha, director Masud Hasan Ujjal is stepping into the festive release race with quiet confidence and a deeply personal cinematic philosophy. His upcoming film, “Bonolota Sen”, arrives years after his acclaimed feature “Unoponchash Batash”.

Since the rise of OTT platforms in Bangladesh, Eid seasons have typically brought an array of original web content. This year, however, the line-up appears noticeably thinner. Across local streaming platforms, original productions are limited, with only two new web films, one dubbed foreign microdrama, and several theatrical releases from Eid-ul-Fitr making their digital debut. Notably, no new web series have been announced for the season.

Since its release during Eid, director Abu Hayat Mahmud’s film “Prince: Once Upon a Time in Dhaka” has remained at the centre of controversy.

Nazrul’s “Rebel Poet” identity is too constrained to limit him within a single frame. Nazrul’s poetry moves, shifts beyond even its historical significance. They take rebirth, vertebrate, enter speech, then public conscience, and Nazrul returns as chant—becoming the primary language of people’s struggle for rights, carrying an unyielding spirit in every movement when people most need him.

However, only a handful of the films have visible promotional campaigns so far. Whether all of them will ultimately make it to cinemas remains to be seen. Several teasers, songs and trailers have already been unveiled, building anticipation around the Eid line-up.

The artiste also thanked fans for their support and described the experience as “overwhelmingly emotional”, while expressing gratitude to his former bandmates for standing by him over the years.
