![]() ![]() The viewers got to know more about me through their pens. Many entertainment journalists also helped me in my ascension as a star. Whose inspiration did you receive most at the beginning of your career?Īmin Khan: I will never forget the support I received from Mohammad Hannan, the director of my first film. Those involved with films for a long time had been calling for an industrial policy for a while. ![]() How do you feel about the government declaring movies as an industry?Īmin Khan: I thank the government for the initiative. If their movies only have a limited audience, then their talents will not be properly evaluated, nor will the film industry expand. But I have only one observation to make about their works I felt that they do not make films for the masses, but focus on a specific audience. They can do better if they get the necessary support. What is your opinion of newcomer directors?Īmin Khan: Several talented newcomer directors are currently active in the film arena. My 20 years of active career is my achievement. Only a few managed to keep their careers alive. I've seen many artistes become great stars and then gradually fade away. There are many professions in the world that allow millions in earning but the love I gathered as an artiste is priceless. Another thing I consider as a great achievement is the love I received from the people. My success lies in the fact that I managed to sustain my career for two straight years. Is fame and fortune all that I had earned? I believe these are not my true achievements. What are your achievements in 20 years of acting?Īmin Khan: I've also asked myself this question many times. It healed all the pains I suffered in the two years of struggle. Anywhere I went, I heard positive reviews. ![]() I remember that after returning to Khulna following the release of the film, I couldn't sleep, as crowds gathered at my home to see me.
