Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Humayun Ahmed dominated Bangladeshi television in the 90s; this series exemplifies his gift for finding poetry in middle-class Dhaka dysfunction.
The 7-episode structure was deliberate—Ahmed believed sitcoms should end before audiences tired of the characters, a philosophy Bangladeshi television largely ignored afterward.
