Stumbling across Shakib Khan and Nusraat Faria in Banasree

White kaash (catkin) flowers cover miles of lands while fluffy clouds hover in the blue sky above — such scenery announces the arrival of Autumn in Bangladesh. On one such beautiful afternoon, I was at a shooting spot at the Meradia area of Dhaka's Banasree, where I came across popular stars Shakib Khan and Nusraat Faria. They were shooting for a television commercial under the scorching heat. The production is directed by Samiur Rahman. 

Previously, Shakib Khan and Nusraat Faria worked together on a film, and two other commercials. 

I could see that Shakib Khan was trying to pacify Nusraat Faria during a scene. The atmosphere was quite romantic. Afterwards, Shakib Khan came out to sit in his air-conditioned make-up room. "It is unbearably hot today!" he told me, in the few minutes that I have with him. His costume designer comes to him right after, to prepare him for the next scene. The choreographer shows him some dance moves, which he rehearses carefully.
