Shanta interested working on the big screen

Shanta Jahan is easily recognizable as a model or an actress but mostly popular as an anchor now. She has spent a few years in the country's showbiz arena with multiple identities on the small screen. In fact, Shanta received numerous proposals for working in movies from many directors in different times. After learning about the stories and her roles in those projects, she gave her primary consent to work in several projects.

Yet, finally, she walked away when she found her co-artistes in the films were not up to her expectations. Shanta, however, still looks forward to working in the big screen, if the movie features an off-track story with a female character at the centre.

 Shanta said, "I must have interest in working in films. But the films in which I want to work should come up with unique stories. I want them to revolve around a female character that tells the tale of a fighting woman. More precisely, I want to work in a film that would provide me enough space for acting rather than merely showcase my glamour on the big screen."

Shanta on Saturday participated as an anchor in the recording of a TV show titled 'Kirtimoti Sommanona'  2018. This show will be aired on Maasranga TV on March 8 to mark the International Women's Day. Beginning her journey with Mabrur Rashid Bannah's telefilm titled 'Nine and a Half', Shanta acted in a few telefilms. The last drama serial she worked in was 'Bou Bibi Begum', directed by Ezaz Munna. She has also worked as a model in more than 30 television commercials.
