Audiences embrace my negative role too

Deepa Khandakar has experienced a turning point in her acting career following her performance as Fupu in director Muhammad Mostafa Kamal Raz’s television serial Eta Amaderi Golpo.

The role earned her widespread appreciation and opened up new opportunities, keeping her busy with various projects.

Her portrayal of the much-loved character showed how strongly a positive role can connect with audiences. Viewers have become so fond of her as Fupu that they are now also responding positively to her negative character in Raz’s recently aired serial Fire Ashar Golpo.

Speaking about the response, Deepa said she had some concerns about how viewers would receive her character, Rukaiya, given its negative nature.

“Since Rukaiya is a negative character, I was a little worried about how audiences would react when the drama started airing. Several episodes have already been broadcast, but viewers have not really raised any concerns about the negative aspects of the character.

To be honest, I received so much love from drama audiences across Bangladesh for playing Fupu. I believe that love is why they are also accepting this negative character so warmly. As an actor, that is what makes me feel fulfilled. I am truly grateful to the audience,” she said.

She also expressed her special gratitude to director Raz. Deepa added that she is set to work on another single-episode drama directed by Raz in about a week.
