Television screens across the country come alive with fresh waves of entertainment on the second day of Eid-ul-Azha.

For newlyweds Raba Khan and Arafat Mohsin Nidhi, music truly became the medium of magic. She, the vivacious internet personality, became a household name among the youth, catapulted into fame through her witty, satirical videos that offered a humorous take on daily life and social norms. As one of Bangladesh’s most prominent digital influencers, Raba has carved out her own space — vibrant, fearless, and refreshingly honest.

For shopping and dining out, Tawsif prefers the convenience of paying by card. “It’s really hard carrying cash. With a card, you can buy anything, anywhere—it’s just more convenient,” he says.

However, with time comes change, and for Basar, that change has brought a more grounded, purposeful experience. “Nowadays, we go on our own, with a sense of duty. My father, my brother, and I—all of us take this responsibility seriously,” shared the Networker Baire actor. “Choosing the sacrificial animal is no longer just an adventure; it’s a significant task. The entire day becomes a mix of tradition, responsibility, and spiritual fulfilment. I personally see to everything—from selecting the animal to ensuring the process is carried out properly.”

A film enthusiast, Aisha’s Eid celebrations often include a trip to the theaters. “I’ve always been a big fan of Marvel and DC movies,” she beams. “But recently, my love for Bangla cinema has grown stronger. The quality and storytelling have improved so much—I now prioritise watching Bangla films during Eid.”

While his grandfather always encouraged him to tag along, Partho admits he was never too keen. "I wasn't fond of crowds or the chaos of the haat (cattle market). I used to find excuses to skip it," he says, laughing. "But my grandfather knew how to win me over. He would bring back sweets and charred flatbreads from the market, because he knew how much I loved them. That was something I looked forward to every single year."

In an industry where schedules are packed and free moments are fleeting, Eid becomes a special window for reconnecting. “Usually, we don’t really get to see our relatives often because everyone’s so busy. But during Eid, everyone is free, and that gives us the chance to meet, talk, and share time together. I’m really looking forward to those chats and moments.”
