Shamol is currently working on “Suraiya”, a psychological drama directed by one of his favourite filmmakers, Robiul Alam Robi. Previously, they have collaborated in “Sincerely Yours, Dhaka”, and “Café Desire”. “Honestly speaking, Giasuddin Selim, Sumon Anwar and Robi are my most favourite directors I have worked with in my career. Each director has a different approach, and that’s what keeps things interesting. This story of ‘Suraiya’ is quite layered, but for now, I can’t reveal much about it just yet.”

Shooting has officially begun for director Robiul Alam Robi’s first full-length feature film, “Suraiya”. After gaining recognition on OTT platforms, the acclaimed filmmaker is now set to make his big-screen debut with the project.

At the 42nd jury session of the Berlinale World Cinema Fund (WCF), twelve international film projects from Bangladesh, Bolivia, Brazil, Cambodia, Cameroon, Cape Verde, Mexico, Panama, Sudan, Tunisia, Ukraine, and Venezuela have been selected for funding.

The Bangladeshi film “Suraiya”, directed by Robiul Alam Robi and based on the novel of the same name by Shibabrata Barman, has been chosen for the Tasveer Film Festival and Market in Seattle, USA. 

The Asian Project Market (APM), considered the largest film investment and co-production market in Asia, has recently unveiled its 30 selected projects for this year’s edition. Among these prestigious selections is the Bangladeshi film “Suraiya”, directed by Robiul Alam Robi, which has earned its spot among the talented pool of filmmakers.
