Viewers’ choice popular TV actress and model Kushum Shikder got Anisur Rahman Milon as her co-actor most of the plays and serials where she worked. But Kushum did not get the scope to work with Riaz either in TV play or film.
On the occasion of coming Eid-ul-Fitr, Sokal Ahmed has made a special play titled Easter Mofiz to telecast on Banglavision. Riaz played the title role in a guest appearance in the play.
Kushum Shikder worked against him. Besides them, Milon also worked in the central role in the play.
During her childhood Kushum liked Riaz. They were living same village. When Mofiz became Easter she went to town. But Kushum still love him. Milon tried to give reception to Easter Mofiz in village to contest in the election. Milon tried to bring him back to village to dominate over the villagers. Story continues with dramatisation. Brindaban Das wrote story of the play.
While talking about the play Riaz told this correspondent, “Though my role was guest appearance but I really enjoyed a lot working in the play. It was my first work with Kushum.”
Kushum shared her feelings by this way, “In 2007, I first performed with Riaz Bhai in a stage show outside the country. Therefore, I had experience to work with him as a judge in a reality show for six months. From that time I have developed a good relationship with him. I have enjoyed working with him in the small screen. Milon is like as my friend. He is the co-actor of my acted most of the plays and serials.”
Milon said, “I have enjoyed working with Riaz Bhai. He is gentle person. My chemistry with Kushum on the screen is perfect, I think so.”
On the occasion of coming Eid, under Sokal Ahmed’s direction Riaz also acted in Remote Control Kar and Sisters. On the other hand, Milon worked under Sokal’s direction in Sonar Kathi Rupar Kathi, Upojukto Chor Patro Chai, Shanko and Opekkha Toamr Jonnyo.
Meanwhile, besides Easter Mofiz, Kushum also worked in Ezaz Munna’s seven-episode serial titled Ami Tumi Tumi Ami, which will be aired on NTV in Eid-ul-Fitr, she said.
