My next guest on the Nabanoor podcast is Mashaekh Hassan. He is a Graduate Teaching Assistant and MA student in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Florida Atlantic University. He is also the Founder and Director of Kendrobimukhi, a vibrant community of young Bangladeshi social science students dedicated to enriching social discourses and driving societal change through impactful research. Very excited about my upcoming chat with him.

According to my next guest on the Nabanoor podcast, he is "a jack of all trades but master of none, who loves cinema for sure!" But this popular Bangladeshi film critic, teacher, actor, and former RJ is much more than your average film lover. He is also the co-founder of সিনেগল্প - Cinegolpo, host of the Remnant Glimpse podcast and former host of Star Movie Review produced by The Daily Star. Can't wait to know more about the one and only Syed Nazmus Sakib.

My next guest on the Nabanoor podcast is the one and only Raiyan Sarwar a.k.a "Dio". He began his musical journey in 2009, starting as a bassist. Around 2010 Dio started singing for some local bands and quickly established himself as a talented musician, winning Battle of the Bands in 2012 with his former band Friday the 13th. Over the years, he has been the singer and songwriter for numerous bands and genres, showcasing his versatility as a singer, while also playing various instruments including the guitar, drums, bass, and keyboard. Currently, he serves as the lead singer and songwriter for two dynamic bands: A.K. Rahul and Roman Sacrifice, and is working on full length albums with both lineups. Also, I consider himself as one of the most talented cooks I have ever met. Super excited to bring him over on my show.

My next guest on the Nabanoor podcast is the multi-talented Sheikh Saif Ahmed Afridi. He is an artist and content creator with exceptional skill set in singing, acting and even his wonderful cooking videos. Super excited for our upcoming chat.

Today the first guest of my second season is the brilliant and talented content creator Bt Param, who considers himself as a food enthusiast. However, I think this man with the most beautiful voice EVER, is upholding and spreading the serene natural beauty, culture, delicious cuisine, and culinary heritage of our beloved Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) and its different tribes and communities. Very excited about our upcoming chat. #Nabanoor #podcast #S02E01

We talk about what we learnt from our first season

My next guest on the Nabanoor podcast is student and activist Farzana Sithi (ফারজানা সিথি). She was one of the most iconic figures during Bangladesh's 2024 quota reform movement. However, the iconic poster girl of the July Revolution has another ironic identity now. Sithi just might be one of the biggest victims of cyberbullying, harassment, and deepfake AI content in the world let alone Bangladesh. What I want to know is how she and her loved ones have been mentally dealing with all of this and her own life story.

Very excited to talk to my next guest on the Nabanoor podcast. Pinky Chiran is the lead vocalist of F Minor, Bangladesh's first all-female Indigenous community band. They came to the spotlight by representing the music and culture of ethnic communities living in Bangladesh and also covered other genres of Bangladeshi music. Launched in October 2016, the band quickly became extremely popular with local music enthusiasts.
