After the assassination of Sheikh Mujib on August 15, 1975, people from all walks of life in the country erupted in joy and jubilation. The issues were caught by a glance at the pages of the newspapers of that time. And the latest version of it was unveiled on August 5, 2024. Because on that day, the students and the public of this country uprooted the Mujibism that was prevalent at all levels of the country. However, the surprising thing is that on the death anniversary of the person by whose hand the first dictatorship was born in independent Bangladesh, and on whose shadow the one-party rule system was established in this country for the last 16 years, some showbiz stars of this country are busy crying crocodile tears for show.
Let's start with the country's megastar Shakib Khan. Today, August 15th, Shakib shared a picture of Mujib on his verified Facebook profile and wrote in the caption - 'Humble tribute on a sad day'. Going to the comment section of the post, it can be seen that netizens have given mixed reactions to Shakib Khan's post. Many have criticized Shakib for such a post.
Recently, the popular actress Jaya Ahsan is walking the same path as Shakib Khan. She also shared a picture of Sheikh Mujib on her profile and wrote in the caption - 'Humble tribute'.
On the other hand, small screen actor Arsh Khan wrote on his profile, "O mother of seven crores, you have left Bengalis, you have not made them human. Poet Guru, your words have been proven false today, my Bengalis have become human today." However, most of the comments in the comment section of his post were offensive. Many people criticized Arsh Khan in harsh language for such an emotional post about a dictator. However, he later deleted his post.
Another small screen actress Mumtahina Chowdhury Toya posted a post on Facebook on the occasion of August 15. In the caption of the post in English, Toya described Mujib as the father of the nation and the architect of Bangladesh. Netizens were outraged by Toya's post.
Sohana Saba shared a post from last year where she wrote about Mujib by quoting a line from a song. On the other hand, Kusum Sikder posted an oil painting of Mujib on social media. In the caption, she wrote about the 50th anniversary of Sheikh Mujib's assassination. The story of August 15 has been brought up in a slightly different way in actress Meher Afroz Shaon's Facebook post. Sharing a picture of Dhanmondi 32 burning in flames, she wrote, "The house that has to be guarded even after being burned and demolished is called number 32." However, since the comment section is closed, it was not possible to know the opinions of netizens about it.
Like every other time, Hasina's son Sajeeb Wazed Joy has posted about August 15. However, as always, his post this time also contained strong hatred towards the government. Netizens have shown mixed reactions in the comments on his post.
On the other hand, Khairul Bashar has identified Mujib as the polar star of Bengal in his post. At the same time, some verses of poetry about him have also been highlighted in that post. Netizens have erupted in anger over this. Some have also abused Khairul in very harsh language. Saju Khadem, Irfan have also posted about Mujib Several stars, including Sajjad, have protested against such posts by showbiz stars. Some say that the artists who have shared the halwa and roti of tyranny in the last 16 years are the ones who are now posting such posts on social media.
