The 96th birth anniversary of eminent Bengali, playwright, linguist, educationist, political activist and literary critic Munier Chowdhury was observed on November 27 and marking the
occasion, Theatre, one of the prominent theatre groups in the country, commemorated it by organising an event at Experimental Theatre Hall of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy conferring the annual ‘Munier Chowdhury Memorial Award’ and ‘Mohammad Zakaria Memorial Award’
for the classes of 2021 and 2020.
Noted actor Tariq Anam Khan received the Munier Chowdhury Memorial Award 2021, while Jyoti Sinha received the ‘Mohammad Zakaria Memorial Award 2021.’ Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2020 awards were not handed over to the recipients Sara Zaker and Sambit Saha, respectively, last year; thus they were also conferred on this year’s event.
