Shajal's hectic Eid shoots

Shajal, one of the most recognisable faces of the small screen, is very busy ahead of Eid-ul-Azha. Like previous years, a number of his plays will be aired on TV channels. As he usually does not appear in drama serials, this is Shajal's best time to shine.

He has been spending hectic days on shoots. He has already completed filming for the play “Anubhutir Oikkotan” with Suborna Mustafa, under the direction of Mehedi Hasan Tinku, and another play with seasoned model-actress Mou. The play is the story of two unfortunate people, Shajal told The Daily Star.

Meanwhile, for the first time, the actor is going to shoot a six-episode play with film star Purnima this week. SA Alik is directing the project. He will also be seen acting in two one-hour Eid plays with Tarin and Tisha. Shan and Shoukhin will direct the TV plays.

After hectic Eid shoots, many actors prefer to fly abroad to spend some time off, but Shajal will spend the festival with his family and stay at home.

Despite his star status, he still goes to buy a sacrificial animal during Eid, something he has always enjoyed doing. Because of his busy schedule, Shajal can't manage time during the day, and plans to go to the cattle market with friends and his father at night.

Shajal also loves to shop for his parents, more so than for himself. His mother usually buys a panjabi for him every Eid, the actor informed.   

Shajal usually does not go out on the day a lot, because he is busy with the rituals and responsibilities. The day after Eid, he visits his relatives' house. On the third day, he usually hangs out  with his friends.
