After months of silence and a change in government, Raihan Rafi's 'controversial' web film "Omimangshito" has finally been cleared for release by the newly formed Bangladesh Film Certification Board. Though the board did not name the Sagar–Runi case, a senior member later confirmed to reporters that the resemblance was a primary concern. Following the political transition and the establishment of a reformed Certification Board in August 2024, the film was re-evaluated. Despite this green light, director Raihan Rafi told bdnews24.com that no final release decision has been made. "Omimangshito" is among 94 films certified by the board in the past 10 months—including 38 full-length Bangla films, 29 English-language films, 12 shorts, and 15 documentaries.
