Baker Bhai

Bakeer is portrayed as a local gangster who patrols the streets with his two companions, Bodi (played by Abdul Kader) and Mojnu (Lutfur Rahman George). As the leader of this small motorcycle gang, Bakeer Bhai skirts the edges of society, living just outside the law and outside of mainstream society. Although a rogue, gangster and rebellious spirit, he is known as a fair and just individual who won't hesitate to step in and correct an injustice or to come to the aid of the defenseless.

During the course of the drama, Bakeer Bhai endears himself to a woman named Muna, who initially disrespects him as a common thug, but eventually succumbs to his roguish charms and his sense of justice and develops feelings for him. As the head of a gang, Bakeer Bhai has to juggle the many competing claims to his turf. This and his readiness to come to the defense of the victimized get him in a series of serious conflicts and dangerous situations. In the end, he is betrayed by one of his own friends and is hanged on a charge of murder despite being innocent. Bakeer Bhai forgave his betrayer before his execution.

The series was so popular in Bangladesh, and the character of Bakeer Bhai so beloved, that mass street protests took place when it was learned that the character would be sentenced to be hanged. Protesters gathered in the thousands and threatened to retaliate if the television station, Bangladesh Television, didn't reverse this decision. The station, however, didn't change their plans and the series ended with beloved Bakeer Bhai's death.
