Adviser to the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting Mahfuj Alam has expressed his intention to turn the Bangladesh Film Development Corporation (BFDC) into a fully-fledged composite film city. Highlighting its central location and existing infrastructure, he said BFDC holds immense potential to house all aspects of filmmaking—ranging from shooting and editing to dubbing and post-production—under one roof.

To bring “Noya Manush” closer to the masses, the filmmakers have launched an alternative screening initiative. The journey officially began on December 25 at Dhaka University’s TSC auditorium, followed by screenings at various universities and cultural centres across the country.
