A high alert has been issued—this time not from meteorologists, but from the world of cinema. A storm is on the horizon, and its name is Taandob. With the launch of its official forecast, the stage is set for a bold and blazing cinematic disruption.
In a riveting 1-minute-41-second preview, superstar Shakib Khan reunites with visionary director Raihan Rafi, reigniting their powerful collaboration. The forecast, released on Sunday (18 May), has already begun dominating digital conversations, sending fans and followers into a frenzy of speculation and excitement. From the moment the project was announced, anticipation had been building. That anticipation exploded with the first-look poster—Shakib Khan striding through flames, embodying

ferocity and intrigue. Now, with the forecast unveiled, the buzz has intensified, heralding what netizens are already calling the Taandob season.
Director Raihan Rafi comments,
“We’re calling it a forecast because something seismic is about to hit. Taandob is not just a film—it’s a force of nature. That’s why ‘forecast’ fits better than any other word. The chaos, the intensity—it’s all building up to a cinematic stor. to the enigma is an arresting appearance by Jaya Ahsan, seen in a mysterious new avatar—weapon in hand, expression sharp, her presence both commanding and cryptic. A recurring element—the monkey mask—features prominently across characters, including Shakib Khan. Its significance, however, remains under wraps until the film’s release.

Having delivered consecutive Eid blockbusters, Raihan Rafi is once again pushing creative boundaries. Taandob marks his most ambitious and stylistically daring project yet—promising audiences a cinematic experience that challenges norms and expectations.
Produced by SVF Alpha-i Entertainment Ltd., Taandob is poised to be a marquee Qurbani Eid release. The film’s rollout will continue in phases, with additional cast reveals and campaign content designed to deepen the narrative and build intrigue with each drop.
As the storm gathers momentum, one thing is certain: Taandob is not just a film—it’s an event.
