Dhaka, 14 February 2025: The dance drama ‘Dilnawaz’ will be staged at the main auditorium of the National Theatre of Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy in Dhaka this evening.

The dance drama is being performed by Sadhana, which will start at 5:30 pm.
Mubashshira Kamal will dance as the main character of the story, Dilnawaz. Regarding this, she said, “It is a big responsibility. I am mainly a Bharatanatyam artist, but in ‘Dilnawaz’ I have to do Kathak and Sufi dance.”
Abu Naeem danced as Prince Shamsher, and Umme Habiba played the role of the bride. A group of talented dancers from Dhaka also participated in this dance drama. Abu Naeem said, "It is a pleasure for us to present this heart-warming story to the younger generation."
