Popular Bangladeshi actress, playwright, presenter and businessman Chanda Mahjabeen’s motivational content page ‘Hal Chherona Bondhu’ is recently gaining popularity among its followers. The Facebook page based motivational platform has released more than 1200 videos in the last ten years to motivate or inspire people who feel helpless with their lives.
The main philosophy of the platform is “Don’t be afraid to face the problem, trust in the Creator. He is more than enough to save anyone from any danger.”
The platform has recently been very active and launched a dedicated hotline. People can call their hotline number (+8801922477742) every Saturday and Thursday from 11 am to 5 pm to talk directly to Chanda or one of their representatives about the on-going issues with their lives.
When asked why Chanda started such a platform, she replied, “I married a footballer when I was very young. He had a very limited income at that time and our love marriage went through a lot of hardships. Because of that, I realised that I would not be able to support my family with the money that I used to get from acting. So, after a while I got involved in the garment business. Slowly we bought our house and a car. Again, I faced losses of crores of taka. That was the first major shock in my life. That was the first time I got the chance to know people around me.”
“Then I turned my life around again in 2005 and stood up. After 2012, I again came into discussion after I started TV drama direction. I realised that like me, a sudden storm can come in anyone’s life. Keeping that in mind, I started ‘Hal Chherona Bondhu’ in 2013. We cannot turn our sadness into a signboard. We can’t stay disappointed. You can find numerous motivational sayings on this page of mine. Out of a sense of responsibility towards people, I want to do this work forever and I want to always be by the people’s side.”
Chanda Mahzabeen made her acting debut with the television drama ‘Shiri Ghar’ on BTV. After that, she acted in several other dramas including the popular drama series ‘Ami Tumi Shey’, ‘Purboratri Purbodin.’ As a presenter, her BTV show ‘Mukhomukhi’ received great popularity for three consecutive years. Inspired by ATN TV Chairman Mahfuzur Rahman, she also directed three popular TV serials called ‘Bangshal to Baridhara’, ‘Ghar Jamai’, and ‘Ainaghar’. She is currently enjoying her time with her three granddaughters Amira, Arisha and Ajina.
