Farzana Chobi, a renowned actress with a long-standing association with Bangladesh Betar, has now officially embarked on a new journey as a news presenter. While she has been a familiar voice in radio dramas and occasionally worked as an announcer since last year, she made her debut as a newsreader last Saturday (October 19).

Over the years, an increasing number of celebrities from music, film and television have released their books at the Ekushey Book Fair. Enthusiastic fans eagerly seek out books authored by their favourite celebrities, inscribed with a personalised signature, all while hoping to catch a glimpse of the stars themselves.

“Acting in a Liberation War-based film is truly a different yet amazing feeling,” said Farzana Chobi on her upcoming Liberation War-based project, "Bhor".

OTT platforms have taken the Bangladeshi entertainment industry by storm, redefining how stories are told and experienced. In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, these digital platforms emerged as beacons of creative freedom, offering an expansive universe of borderless content and thematic diversity. Even veteran actors, who had long thrived on traditional mediums like television and cinema, found a new avenue to showcase their talent and delve into uncharted narratives.

Farzana Chobi just completed silver jubilee of her acting career this year. In her long journey, she gave life to different kind of roles from small to the big screens. She also won Meril Prothom Alo award for her portrayal in challenging roles.
