Nasir Ali Mamun
Happy birthday to ‘Voice of Asia’ SM Sultan
SM Sultan is an unparalleled name in our world of art and literature. He was literally a son of soil. A bohemian by nature he used to vanish sometimes without telling anyone. He lived in his home in Narail with wild animals and rare species of venomous snakes. It was a dark, abandoned house which once belonged to a zamindar of Narail. Bushes and moss surrounded the house on the banks of the Chitra River.

Celluloid adoration of a poet of camera
If I had been told earlier that a documentary would be made, particularly featuring a photographer from Bangladesh, I would have harbored doubts about whether the work would be done with care. However, after watching "Nasir Ali Mamun in Praise of Shadows" by Makbul Chowdhury, my skepticism has vanished. Makbul has shattered my rigid conception about documentaries. This documentary, a vibrant epitome of the life of Nasir Ali Mamun, a luminary of photography, is the result of love, relentless hard work, profound research, and boundless patience.
