A case has been filed against actress Apu Biswas for cheating. Hero Alam and Jahidul Islam Apon have been accused in the same case. Producer Simi Islam Koli filed the case in the Dhaka Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Court on October 24. However, Apu Biswas says “she does not know anything about this”.
The producer claims that her own YouTube channel was hacked by Apu Biswas and Jahidul Islam Apon. Efforts have already been made to address the issue through a General Diary (GD) and producers’ associations. After that, Apu Biswas “did not keep her word” even with the assurance of returning the channel.
Earlier, on January 28 this year, Simi filed a GD at the Lalbagh police station. When the matter came to light, Hero Alam came forward as a “mediator”. They assured to solve the matter by talking to both sides.
Simi alleged that she was asked for Tk 10 lakh to return the channel. It is reported that this has been requested by Apu Biswas. After bargaining, Simi gave Tk 5 lakh to Hero Alam hoping to get the channel back. After receiving the money, they returned the channel. However, Simi found that the previous videos on her channel were missing.
Due to this, Producer Simi approached the court against Apu Biswas, Hero Alam, and Jahidul Islam Apon after finding no solution.
Apu Biswas has opened up about this in the media. In her private statement, “This is a long time ago. I don’t understand why she (Koli) did this again. I heard the news through journalists. I am not aware of this. I don’t see these. My admin takes care of things.”
Regarding whether to take legal action in the context of Simi Islam Koli’s case, Apu Biswas said, “Now the condition of the cinema industry is already ‘deplorable’. I do not understand why these issues are creating controversy at this time. I will decide on this after talking with her.”
