Mim envisions another ‘sold
out’ experience with ‘Damal’
Bidya Sinha Mim has, of late, established
herself as one of the most successful and
busiest actresses in the Bangladeshi film
industry, reports UNB.
Although Mim has multiple commercially
successful films to her name, she has earned
special accolades from moviegoers for her
brilliant performance in the film 'Poran'.
On Friday, the popular actress is
appearing on the big screen yet again with
her new film 'Damal', another Raihan Rafi
directorial, based on the story of the
Swadhin Bangla Football Team.
Written by eminent cultural
personality Faridur Reza Sagar,
'Damal' is showcasing an ensemble cast
of acclaimed artistes, including Siam
Ahmed, Shariful Razz, Intekhab
Dinar and Shahnaz Sumi, alongside
the female lead Mim.
While speaking, Mim, visibly
excited about her new film, shared
her journey with 'Damal' and said
that each new movie adds a
different experience to her
portfolio.
"My newest film 'Damal'
portrays the story of a football
team during the Liberation War
of Bangladesh, and I appeared as
a simple yet flamboyant village
girl named Hasna. The
experience was challenging like
my every other film, and the
audience will be the one to
demonstrate whether my
efforts were praiseworthy or
not," Mim said.
Speaking on 'Poran's
overwhelming response,
Mim said that she thinks
the movie has brought
her closer to the
audience.
"The unbelievable amount of praise I
received for 'Poran' from our beloved
audience, has inspired me and
increased my courage. The experience
of houseful shows and 'sold-out'
responses were totally new
experiences.
"People even called me for the
tickets of both 'Poran' and now
'Damal,' and these are really
noteworthy for me as an actress,
and I would request the
audience to buy tickets in
advance as tickets may run
out this time as well," Mim
said.
About Damal, Mim said
that the film will continue
proving the fact that the
current filmmakers are
thinking differently and
bringing a refreshingly new
era to the country's cinema
industry.
Advance ticket sale of
Damal has begun at many
places in the country,
including Dhaka. The
number of regular shows
has also increased in
multiplexes.
Produced by Impress
Telefilms, 'Damal' will be
showcased on single
screens and multiplexes
across the country. All
five branches of Star
Cineplex in the capital
are scheduled to run
16 shows on the first
day, while a total of
17 shows are slated
from second day
onwards.
Rihanna likely to sing in Black
Panther Wakanda Forever film
Marvel's next offering, Black Panther:
Wakanda Forever, is set to be released
later this year. On Wednesday, in the
run up to the release, Marvel
Entertainment released a very brief and
mysterious announcement regarding
the film, teasing with an 'R' logo from
the film's title, adding that the mystery
will be revealed in two days' time.
However, fans are convinced this refers
to a possible Rihanna song in the film's
soundtrack. On Wednesday morning,
Marvel Entertainment's official
Instagram page shared a small video
where the film's title forms on a black
background, following which the R from
the Forever comes to the centre in large
font. Beneath is the date 10.28.22
(October 28, 2022). The post was
simply captioned, "Wakanda Forever,"
preceded by an eyes emoji.
While the post itself did not reveal
much, fans took this as a confirmation
of the rumours that Rihanna was to
perform a song for the film's
soundtrack. There had been rumours of
the pop star doing a song for the first
Black Panther film when that had
released back in 2018. The rumours
returned last week after a few outlets
reported that Rihanna had recorded a
song for the sequel.
In response to the teaser
announcement, many fans seemed to be
convinced that it was indeed about
Rihanna. "It's about time RiRi does this
film," commented one fan. Another
wrote, "Academy Award-winner
Rihanna is in the house!" Many others,
however, were confused if the
announcement was a reference to the
film being rated-R. It is highly unlikely
that Wakanda Forever would be R-rated
given that the Marvel Cinematic
Universe has an aversion to such films
that don't reach out to wider audiences.
Wakanda Forever sees a new Black
Panther take over the mantle from
T'Challa. Chadwick Boseman, the actor
who played the role in the first film, died
in 2020 after a long battle with cancer.
The film also brings a new threat to
the Marvel universe - Namor the
submariner played by Mexican actor
Tenoch Huerta.
