'Mujib' Trailer Not 'Official': Arifin Shuvoo

Actor Arifin Shuvoo, who plays Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in the biopic, said that the "official" trailer for acclaimed Indian director Shyam Benegal's "Mujib: The Making of A Nation" would be released soon.

On May 19, the film's first trailer was unveiled in the Marché du Film Commercial Branch of the Indian pavilion at the Cannes Film Festival.

When asked about the trailer's negative response on social media, Shuvoo responded, "Just to be clear, this is not the official trailer. It was made just for the Cannes Film Festival. The film's post-production is still in progress. That means the dish is still being prepared. So, until the video is released, you won't know what kind of cuisine was prepared."

"Cannes' trailer was created in under 13 days. Visual effects work is still ongoing, among other things "he explained to Voice of America (Bangla). The official trailer will be released in a few days, according to Shuvoo. He also stated that the flaws that the audience pointed out will be addressed once the film is complete.

Many criticized Shuvoo's voice and make-up for the character of Bangabandhu, as well as the usage of visual effects, particularly in a sequence with warplanes, after the preliminary teaser was released at the Cannes Film Festival.
