The endearing character 'Habu' from the popular series 'Bachelor Point' has officially bid farewell to bachelorhood, stepping into the realm of wedded bliss. The chapter of Alam, the affable farmer who brings Habu to life, has taken a new turn as he ties the knot with Tultul Islam, hailing from Badda in Dhaka. This heartwarming development follows closely after another beloved character from the series, 'Kabila', embarked on his marital journey and welcomed parenthood. The sentiment was lightheartedly captured at farmer Alam's wedding ceremony when one wit quipped, "The bachelors are gradually disappearing," hinting at a future devoid of bachelors. Could this pave the way for a possible drama titled "Marriage Life," featuring the united cast of 'Bachelor Point' in their wedded avatars?
A few years back, the television series 'Bachelor Point' burst onto the scene, brilliantly crafted by director Kajal Arefin Ami. This show intricately wove together the lives of bachelors in the bustling city of Dhaka. The show swiftly gained traction both on television and YouTube, with each character carving a niche in viewers' hearts. Notable names like 'Kabila' (Ziaul Haque Palash), 'Habu' (Chashi Alam), 'Pasha' (Marjuk Russell), 'Borhan' (Sharaf Ahmed Jiban), 'Shimul' (Shimul Sharma), 'Antara' (Faria Shahreen), 'Nabila' (Sabila Noor), 'Nehal' (Tausif Mahbub), and 'Iva' (Parasa Ivana) resonated deeply with the audience. A special highlight within the 'Bachelor Point' narrative lies in the recent nuptials of Kabila, Habu, and Antara over the past year.
Palash, fondly known as Kabila, initially chose to keep his marriage under wraps but eventually unveiled the happy news. Wedding photos featuring Palash and his distant cousin Nafisa Rumman Mehnaz were shared by his wife. In December of the previous year, Palash disclosed that he had tied the knot with Nafisa four months earlier, in a close-knit ceremony at her residence in Mirpur, attended by their nearest and dearest. The joyous journey took another stride as Palash proudly announced the birth of his son in June this year.
In 2007, Faria Shahreen secured the title of first runner-up in the 'Lux-Channel Eye Superstar' competition, igniting her journey in the entertainment world. While she ventured into dramas, commercials, and even film, it was her role as Antara in 'Bachelor Point' that catapulted her to unparalleled popularity. Faria reflected on this in a recent interview with Prothom Alo, stating, "The overwhelming response feels like I'm freshly introduced to the industry. Since the show aired, wherever I go, I'm recognized as Antara. Despite participating in numerous productions post-Lux Channel I Superstar, none have garnered such a reaction. The show's simple yet relatable narrative struck a chord." Faria's Facebook post unveiled her wedding date as July 7, yet intriguingly omitted details about her groom. Nonetheless, reports from 2021 linked her to Mahfuz Rayan, a resident of Dhanmondi, with their engagement garnering family consent after a four-year courtship. Although they did not appear publicly together post-engagement, Faria's July 7 announcement hinted at her wedding without sharing accompanying images.
Meanwhile, farmer Alam, the embodiment of Habu, exchanged vows at a Dhaka community center in the presence of close family members. A pre-wedding ceremony the night before marked the onset of this beautiful journey. While the wedding unfolded within familial circles, Alam's path to love intersected around six months ago when he encountered his now-wife in Uttara. The serendipitous meeting occurred when the young woman, a fervent admirer of his acting, reached out. Their interactions burgeoned, leading to a blossoming romance. Alam's family, after meeting the girl and forming a connection, offered their blessings to the couple.
Sabila Noor, the face behind Nabila in 'Bachelor Point', found her happily ever after with Nehal Sunand Taher in 2019. Sabila's connection with Nehal was fostered through fellow 'Bachelor Point' cast member Tausif Mahbub, who portrays Nehal.Approached for a comment on the ensemble's string of weddings, Kajal Arefin Ami, the director of 'Bachelor Point', cheekily responded, "Certainly, the bachelors are tying the knot one by one. As for the remaining unmarried cast, well, aside from Marjuk Bhai (Marjuk Russell of the Pasha character), the national bachelor, I don't see anyone else. Shimul and Eva are still young, requiring time. However, uniting a national bachelor with a national woman is a formidable task, and the announcement of such a match would undoubtedly make headlines. It's quite the challenge."
