Daughters of Naim, Shabnaz in modelling

Mahdiyah Naim and Nameera Naim, daughters of popular duo Shabnaz and Naim are making their debut in the entertainment industry through a television commercial for Bata.

The shooting for the commercial has been completed on June 14 and will be released on satellite channels on the occasion of Eid-Ul-Azha.

Naim and Shabnaz are famous artists in the Bangladeshi cinema industry in the 90s. Naim debuted as a film actor in 1991 with the film ‘Chandni’ directed by Ehtesham. In that film his co-artiste was Sabreena Taniya Shabnaz. In almost all of his films, Naim was paired with Shabnaz, and later in 1994, they got married.

Nameera said, “We have not any interest to work in the media. Though we two sisters get the opportunity to do a job together, so we did it.”

Shabnaz said, “Though their father became a model for the advertisement of Bata, so, from that affection, I and Naim give them permission to become models for the Bata.”

Naim said, “Mahdiyah and Nameera are my two most beloved daughters. They are expressing interest to do the work, and I was also involved with this work 35 years ago, so it can be said that I have allowed the work to be done with a lot of emotion. Everyone will pray for my family, for my daughters.”

From time to time, Naim uploaded videos of his two daughters singing. Generally in those videos, Naim can be sighted playing a musical instrument while his elder daughter Mahdiyah sings the song. Mahdiyah has already been appreciated because of her singing through social media, while Nameera Naim seems to have an interest in sports.

Both Nameera Naim and Mahdiyah Naim went to York University in Canada and finished their early studies at The Aga Khan School in Dhaka.
