US Ambassador to Bangladesh Marcia Bernicat is set to appear before her Bangladeshi friends with a different role as the Embassy will release a music video ‘Nache Ey Mon’ featuring Bernicat, singers Pritom Hasan and Tahsan, cricketer Mehedi Hasan Miraz and others on Saturday. The video filmed in and around Dhaka celebrates the embassy’s Facebook page gaining four million fans. A preview of the video will be launched on the popular Bangladeshi TV show Ittyadi on Friday, to be aired on state-run Bangladesh Television (BTV) following the Bangla news at 8pm. The Ambassador will share her thoughts on this great achievement for the Ittyadi audience.
The whole video will be shared on the U.S. Embassy Dhaka Facebook page on December 31. “We wanted to say thank you to all our Facebook friends with a video that conveys the vitality of the U.S.-Bangladeshi friendship,” Ambassador Bernicat was quoted as saying in a statement on Thursday. “We hope Bangladeshis enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed filming it,” she added. U.S. Embassy Dhaka’s Facebook page is the first U.S. Embassy Facebook page in the world to reach this milestone. U.S. Embassy Dhaka’s Facebook page features information about opportunities to study in the United States, U.S.-Bangladesh cooperation, and live chats with U.S. government officials and subject matter experts on topics from visas to the U.S. elections.
