Mehjabeen got paid in the first drama?

Mehjabeen wrote in it, '13 years ago today, my first play was aired. I got Mahfuz Ahmed Bhaiya as my first co-artist. The director was Iftekhar Ahmed Fahmi.

Mehzabeen never wanted to act in the drama. Mehjabeen, who grew up outside the country, could not speak Bengali properly even though he understood it.

So how to come to the play? On January 22, 2010, Mehzabeen became the winner of Lux Channel I Superstar. After that, he moved to Chittagong, his country home. After a few days, a call to action in a drama came from Channel I. But Mehzabeen does not agree. Because Bengali speaking is a problem. How will he play? But after winning the beauty pageant, you can't just sit back, you have to work.

In the first light, Mehzabeen said, "They made me understand very quickly that the story is about me. A girl comes from outside the country and gets involved with the culture of Bangladesh. The story is about how to adapt. I was made to understand that not being able to speak Bengali properly is not a problem. Help will be provided from all sides during the performance. I finally came to Dhaka. But before the work, more problems were concentrated.

When asked how it is, Mehjabeen said, 'I used to think that before the shooting of the drama, the actors are given the script, they have to practice, then the shooting. Practice is far from it, the script was not given before the shooting. I was worried. I was afraid of what to do in front of the camera.

The actress also said, "The shooting took place at the end of January." Two days before the shooting, I was told that I should take a few salwar-kameez and sarees to the shooting. But I didn't get the script, I couldn't understand what kind of salwar-kameez, what kind of saree to go with the character. I didn't know that I would have to buy a costume with my own money. Because money was also a matter. All in all, I became very nervous.

Talking about the shooting experience of Ratham day, the actress said, "All in all, I went to the shooting location along with my mother with fear and a bit of nervousness. The first day was work at Dhanmondi, TSC, Charukal location. However, while working, the fear was somewhat removed. I came to know that the Fahmi brothers do not give any script to artists, this is how they work. At first, I had to take multiple takes for each scene. But the director was not bothered at all; Rather, the director was so skilled that he was working on my every scene. Then I realized how talented director Fahmi bhai is.

Mehzabeen's co-star in the first play was Mahfuz Ahmed. Mehjaveen did not get a chance to watch the play he acted in before the shooting. But heard from their parents, he is a very popular actor.
Referring to the fun experience of acting opposite Mahfuz Ahmed, Mehzabeen said, "I said earlier, I had a problem speaking Bengali properly. So I had to take many shots in the shooting. Mahfuz Bhai was a little annoyed. Mahfuz's brother said about me in his heart, the future of this girl is dark.

In 2018, I interviewed Mahfuz Bhai for my YouTube channel. He then admitted it in an interview. In a part of the interview, he said, "Mehzabeen changed my opinion that day. Now we are proud of your career, your acting. Mahfuz Bhai says these words jokingly when we meet sometimes.

For the audience, the distance between that Mehjabeen and this Mehjabeen is sky-high. Present Mehjabeen said about his success, 'I have no achievement alone to come here from that first play 13 years ago. At the beginning of acting in the first drama, many directors, and many co-actors took me by the hand and taught me how to give dialogues, how to act, and how to express myself during work. Gave me a forward. So today's Mehzabeen is not his alone, many people have contributed to him.
Mehjabeen said that he got 15 thousand takas for acting in the first play.
