Popular Bangladeshi actress Tanjin Tisha is set to make her big-screen debut with the romantic film Bhalobashar Morshum, a Kolkata-based production. The film was originally set to star Tisha alongside Bollywood actor Sharman Joshi and Bangladeshi actor Khairul Bashar. However, just before the shooting was scheduled to begin, Bashar abruptly withdrew from the project, leaving the filmmakers surprised.

On Friday (July 25), Khairul Bashar posted on his official Facebook page:
"Discussions were ongoing regarding my involvement in the film Bhalobashar Morshum. Had there been no scheduling conflicts, I would have signed the contract soon. However, for some reasonable causes, I’ve decided not to be part of the project. Thank you."

Director M.N. Raj, however, disagrees with Bashar's version of events. Speaking to the media, he said, "Bashar had already signed a contract for the film and had received one-fourth of his remuneration. It’s unclear how he’s now saying he wasn’t officially involved."

According to the director, just a day before withdrawing, Bashar had confirmed his participation via email. But the next day, he unexpectedly sent a message saying he would no longer be part of the film.

Raj added, "This afternoon Bashar informed us he wouldn't be able to do the film. Since then, we’ve been trying to reach him repeatedly, but he’s not responding. We’re still unsure about what’s going to happen next."

Alongside Tanjin Tisha and Sharman Joshi, the film will also feature Kolkata-based actress Sushmita Chatterjee. The first phase of shooting is scheduled to begin in the first week of September in Darjeeling and will continue for 23 consecutive days. The second phase will take place in October in Murshidabad. If all goes according to plan, Bhalobashar Morshum is expected to release on Valentine’s Day next year.
