“My film has already won several awards. The songs of this film, especially Mumtaz’s ‘Raat Jaga Phool Phote’ have become very popular. I am delighted with the success as it’s my first film. It is a matter of great pride and joy that my film was awarded in the two categories at the Bengal Conference in the

United States. When I received awards in front of many Bengalis, it reminded me of the love of many people.

This award is dedicated to all who are involved with this film. I always feel that my filmmaking journey is begging just now. This production process will be continued for the audience as long as I will survive”, said Mir Sabbir.

Mir Sabbir will return to Bangladesh on July 20. Before that, the film will be screened in Dallas, New York, and San Francisco in the United States.
