Friday brings a dense Eid television schedule across Bangladeshi channels, with blockbuster films, telefilms, dramas, music shows and magazine programmes filling the day. From Shakib Khan-led films to ensemble drama-heavy evenings, broadcasters continue their multi-day festive programming.

Known for her calm screen presence and thoughtful role choices, Nabila has maintained a steady position in the industry while balancing her personal life and career.

This year, while some stars are celebrating Eid abroad, others have travelled back to their hometowns to reunite with loved ones and enjoy a rare moment of peace away from work.

This Eid, Niloy Alamgir will be seen in several dramas spanning multiple genres, including romance, family stories, and romcoms.

Some of the films are showing in both single-screen and multiplex halls. Others are multiplex-only.

From romantic dramas and family entertainers to telefilms, celebrity talk shows and festive magazine programmes, viewers will have plenty of options to choose from this Eid-ul-Azha.

Recently, Nazifa Tushi made headlines for her first-ever playback singing performance of “Paglir Prem Jala” at the Roider Gaan concert held at Rabindra Sarobar.

Bidya Sinha Mim is returning to the big screen this Eid-ul-Azha with her much-anticipated film “Malik”. Known for several acclaimed performances throughout her career, the actress made her silver screen debut in Humayun Ahmed’s “Amar Ache Jol”. Among her most talked-about works remains “Poran”, which was also released during an Eid season.

The second instalment of the widely discussed short film series “Immigrant Diaries”, titled “Eid Mubarak”, has officially been released, drawing praise for its portrayal of the struggles and realities of immigrant life.

For Khairul Basar, “Bonolota Sen”, directed by Masud Hasan Ujjal, has been as much a creative gamble as it has been a career-defining artistic journey — one shaped by uncertainty, fragmented direction, and an unusually long process of discovery.

Bengali film director Anik Dutta passed away today at a private hospital in South Kolkata, according to reports by Anandabazar. He was 66.

Another major spark this Eid season comes through the literary adaptation of “Masud Rana”, one of Bangladesh’s most iconic fictional characters. Adapted from the beloved spy-thriller series created by Qazi Anwar Hussain, the film arrives carrying decades of nostalgia and towering audience expectations.

A week-long celebrity podcast series bringing together some of Dhallywood’s leading actresses is set to air this Eid-ul-Azha under the title “Nayoker Nayika”, hosted by actor Nirab Hossain.

With Eid-ul-Azha drawing near, filmmaker Saif Chandan is still caught in the whirlwind of last-minute work for his upcoming film “Malik”. Speaking candidly from India, where he is currently occupied with post-production responsibilities, the director reflected on the chaos surrounding the release, the challenges of promotion, and why audiences should give the film a chance this Eid.

So far, Star Cineplex has received the DCPs for "Roid", "Malik", "Pinik", and "Bonolota Sen". However, the DCPs for "Rockstar" and "Masud Rana" are yet to arrive.

Titled “Jochhona”, the song will premiere on G-Series’ YouTube channel on the eve of Eid. The track has been written by Samuel Haque, composed by Prince Mahmud, and performed by Tanzir Tuhin, with music arrangement by Shaker Raza.

After the massive cultural impact of “Hawa”, expectations surrounding Mejbaur Rahman Sumon’s upcoming release “Roid” have only continued to grow. Describing the film, he shares that it is not merely a love story, but an attempt to rediscover emotional depth, silence, and fading cultural identities in contemporary life.

As the Eid-ul-Azha box office fills with star-driven spectacles and commercial entertainers, one of the season’s most intriguing releases is arriving from an entirely different space. After winning over audiences at two festivals — DIFF and Amar Bhashar Cholochitro — and earning multiple awards, “The University of Chankharpul”, directed by young filmmaker Akash Haque, has now joined the Eid release race.

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.
