Basar and Niha pair up for the first time

Actors Khairul Basar and Naznin Niha have teamed up for the first time. Their on screen chemistry will be seen in a YouTube film titled Instagram. They spent five days shooting for the film in Pubail, near Dhaka.

The title may remind anyone of the Instagram app. However, the film tells the story of people living in a village. People from different social and professional backgrounds live together there. Whenever a crisis arises, they sincerely stand by one another.

Speaking about her experience working with Khairul Basar, Naznin Niha said, “I really enjoyed it. He is a polite and quiet person. He is also very helpful. I bothered him a lot during the five days of shooting!”

Commenting on Niha, Khairul Basar said, “We had been planning for a long time to act together. When the time and opportunity came, we finally got to work together. It was a wonderful experience. Niha is cheerful, intelligent and very focused on acting. She also keeps an eye on whether everything is all right with her co actors. I really liked it and felt inspired by the thought that someone is so conscious of her work.”

Sharing her thoughts on the story of Instagram, Niha said, “The film will show how simple and straightforward village people are. It also carries a message about what to keep in mind when using social media. I hope viewers will find something educational in it.”

The YouTube film Instagram was directed by Muhammad Mostafa Kamal Raj. Niha previously worked with him in the YouTube films Anurag and Sohjatri.

Speaking about the project, she said, “I thank Raj Bhai for considering me for such a story. I am someone who likes comfort a lot, so I do fewer projects. Raj Bhai also likes comfort just like me, so I feel comfortable working under his direction.”

The YouTube film was written by Siddiq Ahmed. It also features Rozi Siddiqui, Faruk Ahmed, Dr. Ejazul Islam, Mahmudul Islam Mithu and Israt Oithi.

Instagram will be released soon on the Cinemawala YouTube channel.
