Reception and box office
editMonsoon Films, a leading distributor in Dhaka, confirmed that the film opened across 44 cinemas all over Bangladesh.[citation needed] The movie was acclaimed for its overall picture quality and the use of elaborate visual effects in the action scenes.[2][3] Before the release, the movie drew a huge amount of public attention by a massive promotional campaign in the national and international media. The trailer and pre-released item numbers went viral via Facebook and YouTube, and became the first internet meme in Bangladesh. The producer and lead actor, M A Jalil has announced that the film will be followed up with a sequel.[4] Shahidul Islam Khokon, a commercially successful Dhallywood filmmaker, has been contracted for the next installment of the film [5][6] The film became a hit due to the flaws in the film, which gave it an unintentional humor appeal, to the mostly young viewers.[citation needed]
