The special drama 'Amader Bishwakap', inspired by the excitement surrounding the FIFA World Cup, has achieved a major milestone on digital platforms by surpassing five million views on the Jago Entertainment YouTube channel within just a few days of its release.

Audience comments on YouTube praise its realistic storyline, lively performances and authentic portrayal of family life, with many describing it as a reflection of the country's World Cup traditions.

Directed by Mahidul Mahim, the drama follows an ordinary family where the rivalry between Brazil and Argentina supporters extends beyond football into everyday family interactions.

Expressing his delight over the achievement, director Mahidul Mahim said, "While shooting under the scorching sun at different locations in Dhaka, our only goal was to make the story feel like the audience's own story. Seeing more than five million people watch the drama and shower it with love makes all our hard work worthwhile. This appreciation inspires us to create even better works. On behalf of the entire team, I sincerely thank everyone."
