Apurba, Runa khan pair up for ‘Outsider’

Actor Ziaul Faruq Apurba and Runa Khan paired up once again after several years for a new play titled ‘Outsider’.

Written by Mejbah Uddin Suman, the drama is directed by Rubel Hasan, who has previously directed the Eid drama ‘Priya Paribar’.

The story of the play revolves around the issues faced by a child after the separation of his parents.

Muntaha portrays the role of Apurba and Runa’s daughter, while Tanjim Saiyara Totini plays another pivotal character in the play.

“Before this, I acted in the plays titled ‘Sandhya’, and ‘Pathe Prante’ with Runa. Runa is undoubtedly a good actress. She was also nominated for the National Film Award. I enjoyed working with Runa again on a true-to-life story. I hope the audience will like the play,” said Apurba.

When asked about the experience of acting in the play, Runa Khan said, “This is my first project under the direction of Rubel Hasan. His experience in direction is quite good. He was trying to direct every scene with much care.”

“The experience of working with Apurba is always really great because Apurba is so cooperative. Apurba always tries to work accordingly concerning fellow artists. That is why Apurba is such an adored actor in the industry. I enjoyed working with him after a long time,” she added.

The shooting of the play has been completed at a shooting house in Uttara and some other different locations. The play is set to be broadcast on Channel i.
