What is an actor's ultimate goal? Obviously putting in his or her best foot forward to create a space in people's hearts. But nowadays there has been a slight change in this trend: actors often don the role of a director. Among them is popular small-screen star Azizul Hakim with his mega serialJol Porey Pata Norey. Scripted by his wife Zeenat Hakim, who has already earned credentials in this field, the mahurat of the serial was held at the Tajmahal Restaurant recently.

Drama personalities, Abdullah Al Mamun, Mamunur Rashid, Dilara Zaman, Abdul Kader, Srabonti, Deepa Khondokar, Ratri, Sweetie and many other upcoming artistes were present on the occasion.

'Best wishes to the couple and especially to Azizul Hakim on his maiden venture,' said Mamunur Rashid.
