* Model Moushumi Hamid

Bangladeshi Model Moushumi Hamid
Satkhira's Moushumi Hamid was judged the first runner up in the 2010 Lux Channel i Superstar pageant. Since that early taste of success, she has become a familiar face as an actor too. In fact, her fame now also extends to Kolkata, West Bengal.
Mega serial “Roshni”, where Moushumi plays the eponymous role, is being aired jointly by Channel i and Kolkata's ETV Bangla. Both the series and the actor have acquired a huge fan following.
Although the serial was initially shot in Bangladesh, shooting is now on in Kolkata. Moushumi, naturally, has to fly to Kolkata frequently.
“I didn't expect the serial to be such a huge hit. But after it went on air, I was thrilled at the audience response,” says the actor.
Playing the lead role in the serial has given her a high profile and she is often addressed as “Roshni” -- both in Bangladesh and Kolkata.
Moushumi views this as a plus, “This is definitely positive for my career. Whenever I go out, I am recognised. I'm trying my best to get fully into the character of Roshni.”
Among other serials and TV plays featuring her are: “Capsule 500mg” on Rtv; “Metro Life” on ntv; “Nurjahan” on Channel i, “Boiri Batash” on ATN Bangla; and “Generation Next Dot” on Banglavision.
The audiences are getting to see different facets of Moushumi in the ongoing serials. “Nurjahan” features the actress as a rural girl who is married off and becomes a widow at an early age. In “Generation Next Dot”, Moushumi plays a university student. In “Metro Life”, she portrays a mischievous young girl.

Moushumi says, “Acting is fun because I am never stereotyped. I've fallen in love with acting over the years. Now I really enjoy my work and am always on the look out for fresh roles.”
Although her career dates back just two years, Moushumi has worked with many big stars and performed in notable TV plays. Serials like “Jol Chhobi”, “Dead End”, “Terminal”, “Varsity”, “Den Mohor” and “Juwa Rashi” made her a popular name.
It was her friends who persuaded her to sign up for the Lux Channel i Superstar competition though her family was kept in the dark about her ambitions. When she made it to the rank of the top 200 contestants, she was able to convince her somewhat traditional family to allow her to travel to Dhaka for the next round of the competition.
Moushumi is full of plans for the future. She aspires to reach the pinnacle of success like Subarna Mustafa or Joya Ahsan. “I firmly believe that I will reach my goal one day if I keep pushing on with the good work,” she says.
Although she is busy with TV dramas, Moushumi also has her sights on the silver screen. “I would like to work in movies, if I get good scripts. However, I don't want to do more than one film a year.”
Moushumi Hamid is currently engaged in preliminary discussions to make her debut in a Kolkata film. However, for now, everything is under the wraps.
