Nuhash Humayun has already proven his capabilities as a filmmaker with his television debut 'Hotel Albatross' and award winning short film 'Paper Frogs'. The young director now sets his sight on one of the most ambitious projects in Bangladeshi film history, as he talks about his future plans with The Daily Star. You've been quite busy with direction recently. What projects are you working on at the moment? I just finished shooting a film called Sincerely Yours, Dhaka and it's unbelievably exciting.
It's an anthology film with 11 filmmakers combining individual short stories into one film about a singular character — Dhaka city itself. I believe it's the first of its kind in Bangladesh. We're all pouring our hearts in to make something phenomenal! I just directed my first commercial for a telecom company. Khan and he asked me if I wanted to pursue acting. I had the support of my incredible team at Medium Rare and Little Big Films for the commercial, as well as some of my favourite people on set — the commercial stars my niece and nephew who are absolute sweethearts.
It's a human drama about the struggles of our generation. Nuhash explained why it is his first debut feature, since he had previously worked in "Iti Tomari Dhaka". This is why I consider "Moving Bangladesh" to be my first full length feature.
Although the director previously got many filmmaking offers, he was waiting for the right time and plot to begin with. Bijon and Arif have since signed on as my producers. It's very cool to find producers who help you achieve your vision. Throughout the lockdown, we've been having virtual meetings, conducting research, discovering the soul of the film.
Skip to main content. Nuhash Humayun on his first feature film. Sharmin Joya. No one can change it…. I do not understand why people just generally expect that the son should be like his father. Your feelings were beautifully put together in your write up. You said it in your own style and I really enjoyed that particular aspect as I kept reading. I have never read a book by your father, but reading your peice I can tell how talented you are. I can really see you imitating your dad.
Your peice is very vivid. I want you to know that there are many places in this word where people lose people, and not a single soul would ever remember.
Your father left a legacy of his creativity, and you are also an embodiment of that creativity. He participated in creating his son- his real legacy. It would be a loss if you stopped writing, we need great writers, the fact that you wrote in English, I wished I could enjoy reading your fathers books had they been in English.
Perhaphs I have watched the videos, and the natoks, but literature is deep, the reader is taken where the reader wants to be taken by the author. You on the other hand, can create a bridge for those who are illiterate in the Bengali culture.
Because you are a bridge between the English and the Bengali languages. Your father has inspired me to want to read and learn my Bangla literature, however this may take me many years. However, your piece has really let me cry over my broken peices in my life.
Thank you for writing, I am sure if your Baba were here to read this, he would definitely state how big of a fan he is of yours. U r just magician Nuhash. I am your senior at brac. And I actually remember meeting you in a brac lift once. It was a short casual conversation, I believe. I loved your dad and his works. I would be captivated by his writing in my younger days. The reason why I am sending you this message is because I want to talk to you.
Bro, you need to know that you are not alone, your dad loved you and we love you too. Wonderful combination of pure and genuine love for a father from a beloved son and acute pain of a exiled son.
I would say, keep on writing, not driven by the publisher, but for the call of your heart. We are the listener here. Pls write for us sometimes. He mentioned you so many times in his many books. His eternal love for you will always bring tears at the eyes of his readers. God bless you Nuhash! You have that energy — that talent to share the human feelings in your writing that most of us go through and often take for granted in a way that brings out the commonality in us … share it with us whenever you have time.
Nuhash ,liked your write up. Best of luck young man! Nuhash, not the year when you were born, it was and we assembled at the conference hall of TV station at Rampura. A fun drama was written for Eid ul Fitar day telecast by Mr.
Mustafizur Rahaman was the producer. It was a story of a dedicated, innovative yet strange House Tutor who teaches his kid student using unusually practical and strange method. Your father would join the rehearsal along with your mother and all your three sisters. My wife would come along too with my the children. We the writer, performers, director, technicians and even the side liners loved every word of the play and remained tight knotted till the last day of the recording.
We turned in to a large family. I miss Mr. Humyun Ahmed a fine storyteller, Happy Birthday. And congratulations Nuhash for mirroring your father. Keep on writing and you will be as Great as your Dad! In deep prayer for you and your illustrious Dad. Excellent wrie-up. Precise and in short sentences. Yes, love is indivisible. It is also endless and sometimes invisible, but it can be felt.
Nuhash, you are the Torch of your father. He will emit light through you and you will radiate. He will live through your achievements. Both mother and father get love-whole of it and it never ends. Humayun is evergreen in my memory. He was my batchmate and we both resided in Mohsin Hall while in the Dhaka University.
We met regularly in the Reading Room downstair. Keep up with writing spirit. It takes a very long time to write a short sentence. I foresee enormous potential in you. Very personal, lot of emotional attachments…. Nuhash, If you read all these comments along with the ones in prothom alo, you would feel the love people have for your father, and how they are missing his works. Please try to continue writing, and let sir feel proud. You made me text my daughter that I love her and I miss her in the middle of the night.
I used to do that more often, then somehow lost the habit. Thank you for reminding me. Happy birthday our favourite writer Humayun Ahmed Sir! You are the new storyteller.
