Azad Kalam has done dramas with twin characters before. The twins he made with Musharraf Karim have become cults. So far, 14 episode of the series have been made. However, the highest number of twin characters in these plays was two or three. But this time Azad Kalam has entered the field with 16 actors in twin roles. The name of the play is Twin Village. Understandably, what is called a gram twins.
Where did you get such a strange idea? In response to this question, the director said, "the Idea came to my mind after seeing a report on BBC. Later I came to know the news of multiple twin families in a village in Brazil. Everyone in a family there is twins. Even in a village almost everyone is a twin. I found out online that there are villages in Argentina, Chile, Kerala of India. After that, I plan to make a serial drama about the twin villages.”
The play uses 50 real twins to bring a touch of reality. They have acted as extras. Azad Kalam said, "Maybe a scene on the road or outside, the twins will walk side by side. Maybe a few more twins are sitting in the tea shop chatting. For these reasons, 25 pairs of twins had to be found from different districts. Going to shoot with so many twins together, I also got embarrassed. Wherever I go, people crowd. The people of Pubail, however, are accustomed to watching the shooting. Even though Musharraf Karim and Zahid Hasan were shooting, the local people are no longer crowded. But seeing so many twins, many people came and crowded, they had to struggle to cope.”
Anisur Rahman Milon is playing an important twin character in Twin Village. He said, “I did the play with a lot of joy. Since everyone is twins. Every time you go to the scene, you have to find out which twin character the co-actor is doing. Apart from that, I like playing two funny characters together. 'The play also stars Rahmat Ali, Chitralekha Guha, Pran Roy, Sharmin Zoha Shashi, Nadia Khanam, Shyamal Mawla and others.
