THE SUN THAT SHONE THE BRIGHTEST

As the scrawny 9-year-old told me all about how he played in the hay in his beloved village, he clutched on to my finger like he had known me forever. Brishti, his little sister, tepidly scampered closely behind us as the three of us marched on towards the hospital.

Build your own dream team

Football is arguably the biggest sport in the world. It can unite people who are on the same bandwagon with a sense of shared identity, or it can destroy friendships based on apparent club rivalry that in all honesty does not make much sense from thousands of miles away yet it certainly spices things up.

Take the Plaantik

Football is the author of Cinderella stories; whether it is Iceland reaching the quarter finals in the Euros and qualifying for the World Cup or Gabriel Jesus going from painting streets only four years ago to spearheading the Brazilian national team's attack on the biggest stage, football has its own unique way of amusing people with tales of joy. We have our very own version of such a success story today, the story of “Plaantik”.

The art of taking class notes

Taking hand-written notes is a lost art in the current digital era. Thankfully, owing to our “digital” country's reluctance in converting our classroom into a digital ecosystem, the art is not yet obsolete in this part of the world.

An abundance of local business competitions

Back to lazy superhero shows

The Devil of Hell's Kitchen, the unyielding girl, the man with unbreakable skin and the sworn protector of K'un-Lun — an ensemble of heroes you did not know or care about until MCU's bold ventures into the TV screen.

Video Essay channels on YouTube

Ludo STAR

If there is one board game that every Bangladeshi kid grows up with, it has to be the legendary “Ludo”. It is super cheap, easily available in even the smallest grocery stores and immense fun for all ages.
