Sheikh Arif Bulbon :
In acting, Kobori is senior to Sohel Rana for one decade. In 1964, Kobori debuted her acting career in big screen by late Subhash Dutta in his directed movie Sutorang.
On the other hand, after Liberation War in 1972, Sohel Rana attached himself with film by producing Ora Egorajon in the name of Masud Rana.
But he started his acting career in the name of Sohel Rana in his directed first movie titled Masud Rana.
Though Kobori is senior to Sohel Rana in acting but she is junior to him in case of film direction. Under Sohel Rana’s direction Kobori first worked as a heroine in movie Masud Rana.
This time Sohel Rana worked under Kobori’s direction for first time. He acted in role of Kobori’s husband in Kobori directed drama serial titled Abar Ashibo Firey. Its shooting is going on now. Story of the serial was also written by Kobori herself. Shooting of the serial began in the city’s Uttara area on Saturday, Kobori said.
While talking about to work with actor, director and producer Masud Parvez (Sohel Rana) Kobori told this correspondent, “Though I am senior to Mr Parvez in acting but I am junior to him in case of direction. Before shooting I only one time described his role. He made a portray of his role before taking part in shooting and also acted nicely and properly. He has done his job nicely what I wanted from him while giving direction in the serial. I am really impressed with his cooperation and acting. I really felt honoured from him what he has showed while acting in my serial.”
Masud Parvez (Sohel Rana) shared his feelings by this way, “I never felt that I was working in a drama serial because everybody in the shooting was from the film unit. For this reason, I couldn’t understand I was acting in a serial. I was seriously observed the heroine’s (Kobori) direction and her controlling power during the shooting, which has really impressed me. I was really enjoyed during that time.”
The serial Abar Ashibo Firey will be aired on Channel i soon.
Besides Kobori and Sohel Rana, Riaz and Ahona also acted in two important roles in the serial, Kobori said.
