Portraying the picturesque rural and urban beauty of Bangladesh, popular actor Mir Sabbir’s film titled ‘Raat Jaga Phool’ released on New Year’s Eve this Friday across the country, making it the very last release in 2021.

A storyteller by passion, the popular actor has been directing television plays and drama serials for a long time in his two-decades-long career in television. He left no stone unturned for his debut film as its director, actor lyricist and producer.

Talking to the journos at a press conference arranged at the Dhaka Club on Wednesday evening, Mir Sabbir alongside his cast and crew members described the journey behind the film, which has already created a buzz in the cinema sphere for its subtle, beautiful and promising presentation through its trailer, songs and unique promotional campaigns.

“This was certainly a great challenge for me and my team. As it is already known to all that we got Tk 60 lakh from the government as a grant, however, we had to add a lot more to our budget because I wholeheartedly wanted to make this film as enthralling as possible, for our beloved moviegoers,” Sabbir said at the press conference.

With an ensemble cast featuring Mir Sabbir as ‘Roiss,’ the main protagonist of the film, alongside new generation actors Rashed Mamun Apu, Miss World Bangladesh 2018 Jannatul Ferdous Oishee, Abu Hurayra Tanvir, Tanin Tanha, Shahid Shahriar with seasoned actors Fazlur Rahman Babu, Dilara Zaman, Sharmilee Ahmed, Joyraj, Dr Ezaz, Naresh Bhuiyan, Ahsanul Haq Minu and more - the film has already created high expectations among the audiences before its release.

When UNB asked Sabbir about the idea behind the selection of this ensemble cast, Sabbir said: “I have been moving with the story of ‘Raat Jaga Phool’ with myself for a very long time, and when it came to select the casting, my imagination matched with these popular and versatile actors. We all have truly worked not just as co-workers but a family for the entire period of this beautiful journey.”

Oishee’s latest release was the spy-thriller ‘Mission Extreme’ which is still running successfully at the theatres, and speaking of her continuing momentum which was put on a halt due to the ongoing pandemic last year, the young actress said ‘Raat Jaga Phool’ was a refreshing experience for her.

“I feel really fortunate to be a part of this film, sharing the silver screen with our amazing actors under the brilliant direction of Mir Sabbir. Through this film, I have also explored the mesmerizing traditional beauty of our country, which I am glad that our audiences will get to explore this 31st December,” Oishee said at the press conference.
