Director Vicky Zahed, known for his gripping psycho-thrillers like “Redrum” and the “Punorjonmo” series, returns with a new short film—this time blending horror with suspense in “Ekti Khola Janala” (An Open Window).

Vicky’s landmark “Punorjonmo” series reached such heights that to date, wherever he goes, people ask about a spin-off possibility. For the readers, he spilled the beans— “Hajot” is the prequel of the “Punorjonmo” universe. Since Rafsan Haque’s character has reached the mass audience, this time we plan to make it larger than life. Hence, for that, we need time to create something special.”

Vicky Zahed is renowned for creating narratives that explore the complex psychology and darker tendencies of human beings.

The recently released teaser and posters hint at a chilling narrative. One poster features Farin in a nurse's outfit, staring intensely with a stethoscope in hand. Another shows Nadia holding a syringe, her eyes glistening with tears and a smile on her face.
