Dil Bhranto Nabeek - Telefilm on Illegal Traffickers

Everyday millions around the world are falling prey to illegal traffickers. Out of desperation, seeking a better life, people often adopt irregular and unsafe routes of migration. Dik Bhranto Nabeek, a tele-film features the tragic end these people often meet when they put their lives through immense danger, according to a press release. Based on a true story the film tries to discourage human trafficking and encourage regular and safe migration.

The central character Salam is an easygoing youth who dreams big. He is educated but unemployed. He worries about his family. Salam considers going abroad. He thinks by doing that he can somehow make his dreams come true. Eventually he becomes desperate. An organised group of dishonest manpower agents take advantage of his desperation. He loses a great deal of money in the process and the family loses its assets and savings. During an attempt to migrate illegally, Salam loses his life. On the other hand, Salam's friend Sharif is more prudent and pragmatic. He takes courses on Hotel management at NHTTI (National Hotel and Tourism Training Institute) and gets himself a legal job and visa to UK.

Dik Bhranto Nabeek narrates the unfortunate end of a youth full of potentials. It also provides a glimpse at the benefits of adopting legal means of migration to the audience. Written and directed by Al Mansur, the film was produced by Refugee & Migratory Movements Research Unit (RMMRU) with technical assistance from Media-mix Enterprise Ltd. and supported by The British High Commission, Dhaka. The film will be aired tonight at 9:35pm on Channel i .

As part of the Pahela Baishakh celebration Channel i will premier the movie Shajghar. The movie will be aired at 2:30pm on April 14 and will be released at Star Cineplex at Basundhara City on the same day.

Based on a story by popular author Humayun Ahmed, the movie revolves around Asif, a theatre buff who had to alienate himself from his passion in his school days. His ultra-conservative father's restrictions did not allow him to pursue theatre. However, years later Asif makes a return to the stage. He falls for Leena, daughter of a district judge and the young couple marry despite her father's disapproval.

Asif's undying love for theatre is somehow transmitted to Leena, who begins acting in stage plays. Eventually a new actress becomes the point of contention between Leena and Asif. Asif is again asked to quit theatre; this time his unborn child is the excuse. The film follows the couple and consequences of their decisions. Manna, Moushumi and Dighi play the lead roles of the movie. The movie is scripted and directed by Shah Alam Kiron.

Tarana Halim, a busy actor and lawyer, is currently hosting a fortnightly show on Channel i, titled Jibon Jekhaney Jamon. The focus in Jibon, is on a gamut of social issues ranging from children's rights, women's rights, domestic violence, prostitution and more. The programme often features live footage.

Earlier episode featured the plight of underprivileged children, often driven in the wrong direction by terrorists, drug dealers and pickpockets. In her programme she does not cast the blame on the children, but on the people who are using them for nefarious activities."The aim of the programme is to let such criminals know that they will be exposed," says Tarana. Tarana has bagged acclaim for Jibon... both within the country and overseas. Two national awards that have come her way are from BACHSAS and Tenashinas. In the international arena, she has won an award from the London Documentary Forum.

Next on the horizon is an episode on child abuse. Being a hush hush subject which needs to be taken out of the closet, the episode will be challenging. "The need of the hour is to sensitise children and guardians on this issue. We must be more progressive and frank on this subject otherwise children will continue to be abused while the offenders will try to conceal such heinous acts," asserts Tarana.

'Jibon Jekhaney Ja mon' is conceptualised and directed by Tarana Halim.

The programme will be aired at 9.20 pm on two Sundays a month.
