Actress Jyotika Jyoti, who also served as the Director of the Research Department at Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy, left the office on Tuesday (September 17) following protests from her colleagues. Tension escalated when Jyoti arrived at the office that morning, eventually leading to her departure from the premises.

Actress Jyotika Jyoti has questioned why the artistes who protested under the banner of the Visual Media Artistes’ Society against police and Chhatra League attacks on the Anti-Discrimination Student Movements remained silent when Rahul Ananda's home was set ablaze and vandalised.

Having started her career with tele-fictions, Jyotika Jyoti has gone on to star in a number of notable films. For the first time in her career, the veteran actor will star in a film from the other side of the border.
