The Bangla Academy Literary Award-winning writer took to Facebook on Friday, and wrote that he was astonished to see that popular Bangladeshi actor Mosharraf Karim was given the Best Actor in a Comic Role for his performance in the Komola Rocket. Karim also refused to accept the title after the National Film Awards 2018 winners list was published by the Ministry of Information on November 7. The Noor Imran Mithu directed film already received best film awards in five international film festivals. When I was writing the film’s screenplay, whatever the characteristics of Mosharraf Karim’s character were, it was never a comic one. He said: “I have already made my comment on my Facebook page.”Renowned Bangladeshi actor Mosharraf Karim, currently in Malaysia, also shared his remarks on the matter from his verified Facebook page on Saturday.
