Crafting narratives
that sell.

Currently Head of Marketing at Ulanzi BD — trained behind the camera, working in front of the market.

I approach every campaign the way I approach a scene: find the story worth watching, then build everything around it.
Where the two crafts meet

Film taught me how an audience pays attention. Marketing taught me how to earn it.

01 / DIRECTION

Story first

Every brief starts as a question of narrative — what’s the story, who’s it for, and why should they care — before it becomes a media plan.

02 / PRODUCTION

Hands-on execution

Digital campaigns, influencer partnerships, and content programs run and measured end to end, not handed off after the pitch.

03 / AUDIENCE

Reading a room

Years spent organizing student associations and film events built an instinct for what actually moves an audience to act.

About

A film education, applied to marketing.

I’m a Film and Media Studies graduate from Jatiya Kabi Kazi Nazrul Islam University who moved into marketing without leaving storytelling behind. As a filmmaker I was drawn to work that challenges assumptions, sparks real conversation, and helps people understand a world beyond their own — and that same instinct now shapes how I build a campaign. Cinema taught me how an audience’s attention actually works — pacing, tension, payoff — and I’ve spent the years since translating that into campaigns, content, and brand strategy for real companies and real audiences in Bangladesh.
