Fatema Binte Rhaman: Those who were LUX superstars before, most of them had a particular trend or style to carry off themselves. But nowadays we are amazed to see one or two of the superstars.

One advertisement particularly grabs the attention. I am talking about a recent advertisement of Badhon.

In my view, after being a LUX superstar, you need to be within a particular fashion trend acceptable to all. Initially I was in favor of Badhon so that she becomes LUX superstar, but why she did not become superstar was apparent later on. She was caught in theft in Bangkok, as well as she had an illicit relationship with one of the Channel staff- all these news being published about her made me wonder about her integrity. How can aperson lose her image so well in such a small time? The same proof I got from one of her advertisements. Director Farooki probably wanted a total commercial advertisement. But because of this, should a LUX star work for a debilitating advertisement in exchange for money?

At the same time, I will say that only for the sales of your newspaper, do not let go of your paper’s integrity. Do not try to say a debilitating advert as good. All these time, Mostafa Sarwar Farooki produced many such dramas like ‘Baba bole gelo’ and ‘First Date’. All these have put his other good work’s reputation in jeopardy. It is difficult to accept a star’s reputation on the line in everyday life.

I have a question for Badhon. Where will you develop your career at? Do you want to get down while hosting a show? Or do you want to come in the newspapers for all the wrong reasons like getting cut off from a Cinema.

We used to be insired by the works of LUX superstars. They have an image to hold up. But you? And because of people like you now I myself have to think twice before enrolling for such a competition. Just for your behavior, not everyone should be put to shame. You do not have that right. I have to ask you – Ask yourself why you did this and whether you want to be a controversial model and do controversial works. Why don’t you try for good scripts, then we will be inspired too. You will also promote LUX itself.
