Bangabandhu’s younger son, Sheikh Russell, was only 10 years old when he was mercilessly killed. He was a fourth grade student of The University Laboratory School.

Meanwhile, the second project, ‘Ekjon Kafiluddin’ is directed by Suman Dhar with Biddut Roy writing the screenplay for it.
The story focuses on the 70-year-old Kafiluddin, who spends 26 years of his life barefoot, wearing black clothes and abstaining from eating any animal meat-thereby showcasing his genuine love for the Father of the Nation.
Inspired by Bangabandhu’s historic speech on March 7, 1971, Kafiluddin took part in the Liberation War.
