Misir Ali, Impartially!

National Film Award winning actor Chanchal Chowdhury, known for his versatile acting and bold roles in theatre, television and cinema in Bangladesh, tells about his portrayal of the role of Misir Ali in the film 'Debi' on this week's Uncensored With Rafi Hossain.

“At first, I rehearsed with wigs and fake facial hair. But I could never be satisfied with fake props, and so I ultimately decided to grow my beard and bleached my hair white. Hence I could not do any other shooting for the next seven or eight months. The hair and beard that you see in the movie is one hundred percent real. I had to shave off my entire head once the shooting was over, because due to the bleaching, it was not possible to dye my hair black anymore.”
