Bubly's films last Eid also reached unprecedented heights, as Bangladeshi audiences reacted exceptionally well to “Leader Amie Bangladesh”.

"Mona is an intriguing character, and portraying the character has been a joyous challenge. I am genuinely thrilled to be a part of it," said Mahfuz Ahmed with childlike glee, when talking about his film Prohelika which will hit the theatres this Eid-ul-Azha. 

Mahfuz Ahmed and Shobnom Bubly starrer “Prohelika” will be released this Eid. Before the film’s release, they have been participating in various promotion campaigns. On Friday, the team of “Prohelika” met at a restaurant for a similar reason.

Mahfuz Ahmed's rough look has impressed the netizens. In fact, many people could not even recognise the actor, who used to be one of the most romantic actors on-screen. In "Prohelika", the actor is seen in a tormented and defiant look.

After a long hiatus, Mahfuz Ahmed is now back with a new film, "Prohelika", opposite actress Shabnom Bubly. Directed by Chayanika Chowdhury, the film will soon be released in theatres. In a candid conversation with The Daily Star, Mahfuz Ahmed shared his experience of working on the film and more.
