Udhao (Bengali: উধাও; English: Runaway) is a 2013 Bangladeshi film directed and written by Amit Ashraf. It is an award-winning film which was released on September 28 on Star Cineplex and in October 4 commercially in around five cinemas. The film has brought home seven international awards and grants. The casts of the film includes Shahed Ali and Shakil Ahmed in the role of two protagonists – Babu and Akbar respectively – along with Animesh Aich, Ritu Sattar, Nawshaba Ahmed, Shaheen Akhtar Swarna, Saiful Islam and Ithila Islam.
Background
Cinematography of the film is quite brilliantly done with distant and close shots of rural areas and greenery. Moreover, in the story a subtle distinction of village and city are drawn which is validated by cinematography too.
No song is added to the film as a separate item. There are only two folk numbers by Fakir Laal Mia that the actors sometimes hum keeping natural flow of the plot. Visitors at the Cineplex welcomed the director and spoke highly of the production.
‘It was wonderful. Good story and good execution of the story,’ said popular singer Anusheh Anadil. ‘Among the actors Shahed Ali in the role of Babu and Shakil Ahmed in the role of Akbar were brilliant,’ said Kollol Kumar, a visitor. The film is the debutant production of Kazi House Productions.
