After her eight month long stay in Canada, actress Moushumi Biswas returned to the country on July 4. Since she’s been back, Moushumi hasn’t wasted any time. She stood before the camera on July 7 for a single-episode TV play, titled “Balika Bou”. Directed by Imran Hossen, the play is being shot at TSC (Dhaka University) and Uttara. “Balika Bou” will be aired on BTV.
Moushumi is currently in a village, not far from Savar, where shooting of another single-episode TV play “Bishal Rupali Porda” (directed by Gautam Kerry) is on. Moushumi will be seen as a fan of film actress Bobita in the play. Shatabdi Wadud is also acting in the play.
“I felt a thrill when I stood before the camera after eight long months,” said Moushumi. When asked whether she will stay in the country or move to Canada, Moushumi said, “I intend to stay in the country and continue acting. I’ll start working on a TV serial, titled ‘Fourth Class Society’ soon. At this moment I’m also pretty busy with several Eid-special plays.”
Among the Eid-special plays Moushumi is doing are: “Mora Josna” (directed by Tauquir Ahmed); “Haat-e Shomoy Matro Panch Din” (directed by Zobayer) and adaptations of two Tagore stories “Daan Protidan”, “Khudhito Pashan” (both directed by Nurul Alam Atik). She will act in another Nurul Alam Atik play “Kachchhap Buri” marking the upcoming Eid-ul-Fitr.
Prior to her return from Canada, Moushumi also acted in a 104-episode serial “Chhayabritto” directed by Tauquir Ahmed. In the serial, she played the role of an ultra-liberal young woman raised in North America. The serial will go on air soon. Moushumi also acted in a single-episode TV play there. Tony Dias was her co-artiste in that play.
While she was in Canada, several ongoing TV serials like “Choita Pagol”, “Nandini” and “Madhobi Villa” which featured her, were on air. Since she left abruptly, her roles needed to be recast. “I’m really sorry for the incident. I would like to concentrate on work as before. And I hope, I can do so with sincerity,” said Moushumi.
