Bangladeshi actresses surpassed the boundaries of Dhallywood to made their presence felt in Bollywood movies. Among them, most of the actresses found their way directly into Bollywood, while others starred in co-produced movies.

Veteran artiste Shabana acted in a Bollywood film named "Shatru" which was released in 1986. The movie can be found in Bangla as "Birodh". The Indo-Bangladesh co-produced movie was directed by Pramod Chakravorty and showcased Shabana alongside Rajesh Khanna in the film.

Famous actress Babita also made her way into Bollywood with the movie "Gehri Chot". Another Indo-Bangladesh movie was directed by two ace directors from both India and Bangladesh. The movie was by Indian director Ambrish Sangal and Bangladeshi film-maker Ehtesham. The movie was released in Bangladesh with the title "Durdesh". The movie stars Shashi Kapoor, Sharmila Tagore, Raj Babbar, and Parveen Babi among others.

Actress Rozina starred alongside Mithun Chakraborty in a co-produced Bollywood movie named "Aar Paar". Directed by Shakti Samanta, the movie was released in 1985 and was released in both Kolkata and Bangladesh with two different titles. In Bangladesh, it was called "Obichar" while in Kolkata it was named "Onnay Obichar".

Bangladeshi model Tangia Zaman Methila also found her way into Bollywood with the movie "Rohingya". Directed by Haider Khan, the movie is yet to release in theatre halls.

The latest actress to join the Bollywood bandwagon is none other than "Rehana Maryam Noor" actress Azmeri Haque Badhon. The actress has already started shooting for Vishal Bhardwaj's "Khufiya" and has recently taken the internet by storm with her debut news in Bollywood.

 

The movie "Khufiya" also stars Tabu, Ali Fazal, Ashish Vidyarthi, and Wamiqa Gabbi in pivotal roles. Based on Amar Bhushan's book "Escape To Nowhere," the film is loosely inspired by a real-life incident that took place in 2004.
