Zero Degree has been quite a discussed film.

We all know the beauty that is Kusum Shikder. Ever since she emerged as the winner from the Lux-Anandadhara Beatuy Pageant, she has acted in numourus TV dramas and gained a massive fan following.

BEGINNINGS How did it all happen? I dreamt of seeing myself on television and in films since I was very little. That dream is what pushed me to give show business a shot. The Veet Channel i Top Model competition gave me the platform to enter the field. I watched the first season of this program and after seeing Hasin apu win, I decided that I would try out for this as well. When I found out about the second season of Veet Channel i Top Model, I applied. I submitted my picture on the last day of the submission, and got a call for an audition only two days later. The day long audition involved over three hundred other girls. They managed to whittle that massive number down to 20 contestants and they took us to the camp two days later. I must say I felt blessed that I made it through that challenging screening process.

The New Year has started on a melancholy note with the passing of Chashi Nazrul Islam. Amongst the few good directors we had, he was one. We lost many such talents in the last few years as well, creating a gaping vacuum in the field of creative arts.
