About

[edit]

Humayun Ahmed made his debut as a filmmaker by releasing this film. It was released at a time when the middle-class people of the country had long turned their backs on Bangla films. Unconventional plot, humorous dialogues, lively characters and unique style of story line were the landmarks of the film. This is regarded as one of the finest movies in Bangladeshi cinema history on the 1971 liberation war.[4]
