Not everything always goes according to plan

Nusraat Faria is set to return to the big screen after a year and a half. The actress is preparing to end her hiatus with Thikana Bangladesh, which is scheduled for release in December.

Directed by Anam Biswas, the film stars Arifin Shuvoo opposite Faria. Irfan Sajjad and Khairul Basar also feature in the cast.

After filming was completed, the movie’s title was changed from Football 71 to Thikana Bangladesh.

Although its release date was announced several times, various complications prevented the film from reaching cinemas. Finally, on Wednesday, the director confirmed its release.

The film, which received a government grant for the 2019-20 fiscal year, tells the story of the historic Independent Bengal Football Team during the Liberation War.

Faria believes returning to work after going through difficult times in life is particularly meaningful.

Reflecting on her experiences, she said, “Not everything always goes according to plan.

Some circumstances force you to stop, while certain events teach you to think differently. I can be more patient now than I was before.

The love I have received from people has given me strength. I want to move forward with that strength.”
