Maznun Mizan is a very popular face among television viewers. Beginning his career 15 years ago on stage, his dedication has made him a regular on TV. The actor recently spoke to The Daily Star, about his profession and beyond.

You're most treasured possession?

Manzun Mizan: There is no doubt that my most treasured possession is my work. And through my work, I am recognised as an actor. I personally feel that any character I play, entertains or inspires the audience in some way, and teaches them to be someone.

After all this time in the profession, what keeps you motivated?

Manzun Mizan: I love my work. I truly value it because I have worked hard to get where I am now. Being an actor is not something that I decided overnight. I wanted to be an actor since I was in grade four. It has been a struggle but in the end it was worth it. I believed in myself, and made others believe in me, too.

Something you have always wanted to achieve, but you are yet to?

Manzun Mizan: I have always wanted to do something good for my nation. In the near future, I will be portraying the role of a freedom fighter on screen. Let see where that takes me.
