Babita is a renowned actress of Bangladesh. Her beauty and performence still feels appealing. She has given many hit movies in her career. However, this actress who once flourished in the film industry is no longer seen on the silver screen. Babita revealed the reason. Recently, Babita talked about various issues of film in a media of the country. At that time, the actress said, my fans will be able to see me again on the screen if there is a chance. She also said that, "If a  story is made based on me, I will definitely act. I can never say goodbye to acting." She said, "Currently I am not used to doing the roles that I am asked for. Meanwhile I got an offer to do a movie with Shakib Khan. That movie was supposed to be shot in America, Canada. But I did not agree. Because I don't want to play the role of a mother only." "In our neighbouring countries, Amitabh Bachchan is playing central roles even at this age. Sridevi played the lead role even before her death. But this scenario is very rare in our country. Everyone thinks that, when we get old, we do not get any role except the character of parents. That's why I am away from the movie. If the story is good and heart-touching, the audience will definitely see me again in the cinema." The actress added. Incidentally, Babita was last seen in Nargis Akhter's 'Putro Ekhon Poishawala' movie.  However, she assured that if she gets chance to play any central role in a movie in future, she will surely act in it.

Despite being based on a grim true-crime yarn, “Under the Bridge” makes several poor choices in translating the book to the screen, beginning with inserting the author, Rebecca Godfrey, into the story. This bridge into the familiar waters of troubled teens thus proves most notable as Lily Gladstone’s follow-up to “Killers of the Flower Moon,” albeit in a rather drab role as the local cop investigating the case. The heart of this eight-episode Hulu series deals with 14-year-old Reena Virk ((Vritika Gupta), whose palpable longing to fit in with her peers unfolds against the backdrop of knowing some of them took part in beating and killing her. Those events shocked the Canadian town of Victoria in 1997, providing the foundation for Godfrey’s book. Like “13 Reasons Why,” the controversial Netflix series, and before that fare like the 1986 movie “River’s Edge,” the story traffics in the unsettling callousness of teens even before the modern era of social media. Reena’s disappearance, and eventual discovery, also serves as every parent’s nightmare, with Archie Panjabi (“The Good Wife”) and Ezra Faroque Khan as her understandably frantic and then devastated mom and dad. Told through flashbacks, “Under the Bridge” errs by creating a separate thread around Rebecca (Riley Keough, fresh off another streaming show in “Daisy Jones & the Six”), a writer returning to her hometown who experienced her own tragedy there years before. Almost immediately, she reconnects with the sheriff, Cam (Gladstone), with whom she shares history, while conducting what amounts to a parallel real-time investigation into what transpired. It’s an awkward, not-very-convincing construct, as are most of the details surrounding Rebecca and Cam, which feel strained or simply tired. The former almost immediately feels sympathy for those who might have been responsible, while the latter grapples with working for her dad (Matt Craven). Those elements represent distractions from the fundamental issues of what happened to Reena, what motivated her attackers and the collective silence from her peers that followed the tragedy. Indeed, the series fares considerably better when its focus shifts to the teens, including Chloe Guidry as the cruel ringleader of the girl gang – known dismissively in police circles as “Bic girls,” a reference to the disposability of Victoria’s troubled youths – and Javon “Wanna” Walton (“Euphoria”) as one of the boys involved. Adapted by writer-producer Quinn Shephard (“Not Okay”), “Under the Bridge” builds modest suspense around the specific details regarding who killed Reena, but that can’t entirely offset its questionable structural decisions. The flaws don’t diminish the heartbreaking nature of the story at its core, but they do make wading through eight episodes of this limited series at times feel like a bridge too far. Source: CNN

Netflix trots out a drama/documentary hybrid this week titled “Testament: The Story of Moses,” mixing a Turkish production with religion experts discussing the biblical story. The three parts total more than four hours. If you’ve a mind to invest that kind of screen time in Moses, though, accept no substitutes, especially with the granddaddy of all biblical epics, Cecil B. DeMille’s 1956 version of “The Ten Commandments,” just around the corner, keeping its annual date with viewers on ABC. Indeed, watching Netflix’s modern knockoff only heightens a sense of appreciation for DeMille’s efforts at a different time in the evolution of the movie industry, when TV was still relatively new and special effects hadn’t reached their digital heights. There are plenty of reasons to savor the original movie, most of them having to do with the casting, some of it campy and awful in a truly wonderful way, some just plain spectacular. As Moses, Charlton Heston brought a sense of conviction to this epic role (see also “Ben-Hur”) that anchored the movie in a way few actors could, before or since. Yet at the top of the heap look no further than Yul Brynner as Moses’ rival and eventual foe Rameses, who tells his reluctant bride-to-be with princely swagger and sexuality, “You will come to me whenever I call you, and I will enjoy that very much. Whether you enjoy it or not is your own affair… but I think you will.” On the other end of the spectrum there’s Anne Baxter as Nefretiri, Moses’ first love and Rameses’ reluctant bride when he ascends to pharaoh. Famous for her role in “All About Eve,” Baxter chews through much of Egypt, repeating “Moses” so often (as in “Oh Moses, Moses”) that one might be forgiven for concluding that’s both his first and last name. The supporting cast is equally delicious, including Edward G. Robinson sounding like he’s in a gangster movie and still stealing every scene he’s in as the traitorous Dathan, Vincent Price as pharaoh’s master builder and Sir Cedric Hardwicke as Rameses’ father, Sethi, who loves Moses more than he does his own son. ABC has aired the film more than 40 times since 1973, making it a solid Easter and Passover staple. Already 220 minutes long, the broadcast window with commercials has ballooned to four hours and 44 minutes, spilling out of primetime before Moses can descend from Mount Sinai with the you-know-what. Although broadcast TV doesn’t possess the only-game-in-town clout that existed when ABC first showed the movie, “The Ten Commandments” has remained a potent draw, perhaps because it’s the kind of film that can be watched – certainly in bits and pieces, if not all the way through – over and over. Last year’s telecast averaged more than 3 million viewers opposite NCAA tournament coverage, which it will face again this year. DeMille, of course, became practically synonymous with lavish, star-studded costume productions, starting with a silent version of “The Ten Commandments” in the 1920s and including “Samson and Delilah” in the ‘50s. Even by those standards, “The Ten Commandments” stands apart, both for its visual effects (the parting of the Red Sea is still a landmark sequence) and the soap-opera qualities wrapped up in the Moses-Nefretiri-Rameses triangle. Given that, even with broadcast television having become a shadow of what it was, there’s something reassuring about seeing the movie return year after year, marking the calendar in a way only a few Christmas specials and movies can rival. As TV traditions go, perhaps that’s why this one has proven so enduring. Or as Brynner’s Rameses might say, “So let it be written. So let it be done.” Source: CNN

Actress Prarthana Fardin Dighi stepped on the big screen as a child artist. She has received praises for acting in several films.

Love, marriage, children, then separation, this news is not unknown to Shakib-Bubly fans. The two celebrities have not lived under the same roof for a long time. Mentioning that there is no place for any other man in her life except Bubly Shakib, the heroine said, "Shakib is the prince of my life. He is  the only man i love." Marrying Shakib is a wrong decision of life, did it ever feel like that? In response to such a question, Bubly said, yes it seems. Because, in many difficult times of my life, when I needed him by my side, I did not have him by my side. At that time, it seemed that the decision to marry him was wrong. "My son is everything now. No love, no relationship can get close to me. In the future, I will spend time with films, children, family," she added.
