After the change in the country’s political landscape, many pro-Awami artists became victims of sarcasm. Dhakai movie heroine Nusrat Faria is in this list. He was staying abroad before the change of government. He recently returned to the country and opened up about it.
Throwing the question, Nusrat Faria said, ‘It has fallen on the eyes, it also feels bad. But what to say to whom! My career is 12 years. I have seen the Awami League government in power since the beginning of my career. I responded to the type of work they called for. Actually I am not here to pass the time. It is a bread-and-butter. I will do it if I get a job offer, that’s the rule. Now if someone pushes me away as an Awami supporter, what can I do?’
Nusrat Faria thinks that the work of artists is not divisive. In his words, ‘We are artists, our job is to entertain people. I have done that. I was never a blind supporter of anyone. If I had done that, I would not have come to the country if I had the slightest narrow mind. Now if the new government calls me for their work, I will definitely respond. The work of artists is not to divide, but to make a place in the hearts of the audience with their acting style.
