Award-winning film “Fatima” is all set to grace the silver screen in theatres across the country on May 24. The trailer for the film which dropped on Saturday features Tasnia Farin in the titular role. The trailer suggests the struggle of a young artiste Fatima, who tries to establish a name for herself in the film industry.
“Fatima” takes viewers on a captivating journey through the lives of two young girls, Fatima and Subarna. Tasnia Farin, in her acting debut, portrays the character of Fatima.
Speaking about her role, Farin shared, “This marks my first venture into the world of cinema. The initial shooting went smoothly, but it was abruptly halted midway. During the hiatus, I also delved into regular drama work. To my surprise, after nearly eight years, director Dhrubo Hasan called me and expressed his determination to revive the film. I trusted his vision, and in the end, ‘Fatima’ not only fared well but also made its mark at several international film festivals. I was honoured to receive the Best Actress award at the Fajr International Film Festival in Iran. Now, like everyone else, I eagerly await the film’s theatrical release.”
The production of “Fatima” began a staggering eight years ago under the working title “Dahokal.” Director Dhrubo Hasan faced numerous challenges along the way, but his unwavering commitment ensured the completion of this cinematic gem. The film’s title evolved to “Fatima,” aligning with the story’s development and depth.
The ensemble cast features talented actors, including Yash Rohan, Tariq Anam Khan, Pantho Kanai, Manas Bandyopadhyay, Sumit Sengupta, and Ayesha Monika.
The distribution rights for “Fatima” have been secured OTT platform, Bongo.
“Fatima” recently received accolades at the 42nd Fajr International Film Festival in Iran, solidifying its status as a must-watch cinematic experience.
As the release date approaches, cinephiles eagerly anticipate stepping into the world of “Fatima” and immersing themselves in its poignant narrative.
