A lighter scene from Tak Jhaal Mishti
Director and scriptwriter Debashish Bishwas once again presents a social comedy film,Tak Jhaal Mishti, produced under Global Media banner. The film will be premiered on Eid-Ul-Fitr at 02:40pm on ATN Bangla. The film has an impressive star cast with Riaz, Purnima, ATM Shamsuzzaman and Shahidul Alam Shachchu heading the list. Other artistes are Dr Ejazul Islam, Shaju Khadem, Ratan Khan, Shawon Ashraf, Rasheda Chowdhury and Shajan, among others.

Tak Jhaal Mishti is the story of two hotel owners. One of them owns a three-star hotel and other an ordinary roadside hotel, which is akin to a slum. The ambitious owner of the three-star hotel, Feroz Chowdhury (ATM Shamsuzzaman), is apprehensive about the smaller hotel. To further complicate matters, the owner of the low-grade hotel, Raja (Riaz) loves Priya (Purnima), Chowdhury's only daughter. Priya is a vivacious and confident city girl. While Chowdhury gets anxious about these developments, Raja is in no mood to compromise. What happens to the rivals at the end is the ultimate attraction of the movie. Suffice it to say that the movie has a happy ending.

"The film Tak Jhaal Mishti film is designed to elicit laughter from the audience. It has very good acting and a compelling story. The glamorous and vivacious Purnima adds spunk and glitter to the film. Emon Shaha's music is quite appealing. The producers are making all out efforts to ensure that the film lives up to its hype. I wanted to make a film that will reach out to people, not something that's profound and not understood by anyone. Let's hope that this movie lives up to people's expectations," says Debashish.
