Himu

[Zeeshan]

This thread is for the die hard Himu fans. Discuss what you like, dislike about him or the tv natok renditions, or what you'd like to see in future Himu novels. =)

I think Mosharraf Karim and the producers did a fantastic job in Ami Himu Hote Chai.

Old Himu novels were much better than the newer ones. Humayun Ahmed is burnt out IMO. And not a fan of Himu dramas.

That mini Himu character in Aaj Robibar and Nokkhotrer Raat was cool & mysterious

Couldn't agree more. He should have never gone into directing. He is a story teller on pen and paper; not on screen. His direction sucks big time.

[Zeeshan]

^True that. His dramas suck so bad. Btw....the one i posted, some really funny moments, I nearly cried at the end for Tiklu, Deepu that douchebag's gf was kinda hot....Himu's gf's rant was funny. AND I HATE BANGLA SERIALS!

@mb....will check out ur video soon.

[_Rafi_]

I want Humayun Ahmed to stop writing more about Himu!

[Blah]

Last time I read a himu was ~11 years ago. I thought the author killed off the character (metaphorically). Surprised to see its still around. He should have ended it while it was good, instead of milking it thin.

[Nocturnal]

himu was super in his first few years. he su*ks big time now!
btw Misir Ali is my fav character!

[auntu]

হিমুর উপন্যাস নিয়ে নাটক সৃষ্টির যে বালখিল্যতা দেখিয়েছে তা সত্যিই চুরান্ত নিম্নমানের।

I didn't really follow Bangla natoks for a long time, and then started watching some here and there in the last couple of years. So I sort of jumped from the old 90's natoks (shot in BTV studio and all) to the modern "package" ones.

I don't really mind the plot or direction of the modern natoks which I've seen. To me, the main problem these days is all the terrible actors. Back in the 80's and 90's, you had some very good actors doing even minor roles. Now you have some seriously terrible actors doing major roles. যাকে তাকে নাটকে ঢুকায় দেয়...

Are drama theaters still popular in BD? A lot of good actors used to come out of them in the 90's...

^The most disturbing thing about today's Bangladeshi dramas is their language. It's abosolutely disgusting. Mustafa Sarwar Faruki is the main culprit behind this.

[Ashfaq]

Himu was good once, with meaning behind his every move. Now a days, he's just a cash-cow. Though I never was a fan of Himu, even I miss the old Himu.

[bujhee kom]

Himu ke? Rabz bhai Robiul Rabz bhai is Himu bhai!

[Ajfar]

^nah Rabz bhai is a Pimp.

[Alchemist]

Humayun Ahmed has lost his touch completely. It seems the new novels (including the Himu and Misir Ali one's) are written by somebody else and not him!

Back in my Uni. days, I was influenced by Himu so much that I did a lot of challenging stuff. A friend of mine and myself walked from Tetulia to Teknaf (a nearly 1200 KM walk) in 28 days back in May-June 2002 (one of the events that was largely inspired by the fictional character Himu).

I didn't like the character Himu in the Bangladeshi natoks though (including the recent ones). Mosharrof Karim tried his best, but if I'm the producer/director, I'd never select him as Himu.

[hoax]

Himu's life=all dream about it and none can get it!

ya,right,at the begining I was kinda ok but now a days it seems annoying & exaggerating,and more than the language I hate their casting.
eventhgh there r some talented ones like Fahmi,Faruki himself,Rony but yet they hv lost the quality so badly.

[bujhee kom]

Achcha bhais, Himu-ta ke? Humuyun Ahmed's daak naam naki?

BTW Our Rabz bhai's name is Himu as well. He is the real slim shady Himu Mastaan of Gulistaan!

[Rabz]

^^ hehe Javed bhai.
Not a slim shady gangsta, but certainly Himu indeed.
