Noted actor Shahiduzzaman Selim and Lux star Alvi Ahmed has paired up for a drama serial titled ‘Tout Plus’ directed by M Dulal. The duo joined shooting of the new drama serial at a shooting house in Uttara last Wednesday, said sources. When asked about his role in the drama serial, Shahiduzzaman Selim said, “The name of the drama ‘Tout Plus’ shows that it is a comedy-based drama. The drama script is interesting. I know my co-actor Alvi from her childhood, which makes it easier to act. I can remember, I went Kusthia once for the shooting of a drama directed by Saidul Anam Tutul. At that time, Alvi was a student of class seven. She is the daughter of theatre personality Amirul-who is in the local troupe ‘Bodhon’. That’s how I know her from her childhood.” “Earlier, Alvi and I had acted in several tele-dramas and drama serials. This production appears to be a good one and I am optimistic about the drama serial”, he added.
Alvi said, “Selim bhai is such a strong and powerful actor that I learn many things from him all the time. He also adores me a lot. In the new drama serial, our roles are very interesting and we are enjoying a lot during the shooting. We will not play the traditional characters here, rather the audience will find something new through our characters.”
The duo earlier acted together in several tele-dramas and drama serials. They first performed as a pair in Rulin Rahman directed drama serial ‘Sontoron’.
Drama serial, ‘Rupali Prantor’, where the pair is acting, is now being telecast on ATN Bangla regularly.
