Reception and box office
Monsoon Films, a leading distributor in Dhaka, confirmed that the film opened across 44 cinemas all over Bangladesh. The movie was acclaimed for its overall picture quality and the use of elaborate visual effects in the action scenes.[2][3] Before the release, the movie drew a huge amount of public attention by a massive promotional campaign in the national and international media. The trailer and pre-released item numbers went viral via Facebook and YouTube, and became the first internet meme in Bangladesh. The producer and lead actor, M A Jalil has announced that the film will be followed up with a sequel.[4] Shahidul Islam Khokon, a commercially successful Dhallywood filmmaker, has been contracted for the next installment of the film [5][6] The film became a hit due to the flaws in the film, which gave it an unintentional humor appeal, to the mostly young viewers.
