The Bangladesh Film Development Corporation (BFDC) is organizing a special film festival to commemorate the birth month of legendary lyricist, director, and producer Gazi Mazharul Anwar in February 2027. The initiative aims to introduce his timeless cinematic and musical works to the younger generation.
BFDC Managing Director Masuma Rahman Tani confirmed the initiative, noting that following the immense public enthusiasm for the open-air film festival held last September for the 30th death anniversary of film icon Salman Shah, BFDC is eager to honor Gazi Mazharul Anwar, who treated the film industry as his second home.
