During the dinner, the premier exchanged pleasantries with the invited guests and inquired about their wellbeing, said Prime Minister’s Deputy Press Secretary KM Shakhawat Moon.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina urged those concerned to produce such films in the future so that the new generation can know the history properly.

She directed concerned authorities to renovate and reopen the cinema halls, which were shut down in different districts of the country.

Later, the prime minister handed over mementos to the artists and crew of the film.

Famous Indian filmmaker Shyam Benegal has directed the film “Mujib: The Making of a Nation,” depicting the life and political works of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

On Thursday, Sheikh Hasina, also the eldest daughter of Bangabandhu, watched the premiere show of the biopic at the Bangladesh Film Archive at Agargaon in the city.
