Marking the 42nd martyrdom anniversary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy (BSA) has come up with an array of programmes scheduled to be held throughout the entire month of August on its premises in the capital.

Then, Loko Natya Dal staged their play ‘Mujib Mane Mukti’ at the Experimental Theatre Hall of BSA. Planned, scripted and directed by Liaquat Ali Lucky, the production portrays the childhood of Bangabandhu with background music. As the story progresses, Bangabandhu is seen growing up through different events. Rooted in history, the story of the play depicts the versatile life of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

The play also brings out a few incidents relating to national importance, including the Language Movement, Agartala Conspiracy Case, Bangabandhu’s historic speech of March 7 and finally the Liberation War. The play also narrates the emergence of Bangladesh as a free nation.
