Late actress Sarah Begum Kabari’s first film ‘Aina’ (2006) was acclaimed by critics with several private awards. This film is also produced by Anjan Chowdhury Pintu. He also produced Biswasundari, a film directed by Chayanika Chowdhury, with a pledge to patronize healthy genre films. Because, the story of Biswasundari written by Rumman Rashid Khan is about a heroine mother. Those who have given their respect for the country, our ‘Bir Matarai’ is the real beauty. The most beautiful in the world. They are the ‘beauties of the world’. Heroic freedom fighter Anjan Chowdhury Pintu felt the need to patronize the story of the film based on this idea.
When the movie industry came to a standstill after the first wave of the global epidemic Corona subsided somewhat; Producer Anjan Chowdhury Pintu dared to take the risk of releasing the film on December 11, 2020, keeping in mind the cinema owners and distributors. Film analysts applauded this. Biswasundari has been shown in theaters for 116 consecutive days. In particular, the film has been screened for two consecutive weeks at two multiplex theaters in Dhaka (Star Cineplex, Bashundhara City and Blockbuster Cinemas, Jamuna Future Park).
