As part of its commercial promotion initiatives, the state-owned Bangladesh Parjatan Corporation (BPC) and Directors Guild Bangladesh, an organisation of registered drama, film and audio-visual content producers in Bangladesh, signed a two-year bilateral memorandum of understanding (MoU) on 8 February, 2026.
The MoU signing ceremony was held at the Parjatan Bhaban in Agargaon, attended by BPC Chairman Saema Shaheen Sultana and Directors Guild Bangladesh President Shahiduzzaman Selim, alongside senior officials from both organisations.
Under the MoU, Directors Guild Bangladesh’s registered members and BPC will work together to promote tourism in Bangladesh and publicise BPC’s commercial units. With Bangladeshi dramas, documentaries and audio-visual content gaining domestic and international audiences through digital platforms such as YouTube, OTT platforms and social media, BPC’s hotels, motels and resort compounds will be made available to Directors Guild Bangladesh as shooting locations free of charge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During production, guild members will also be able to use accommodation at BPC’s commercial units at special discounted rates.
In turn, dramas, films and audio-visual content produced by guild members will create opportunities to promote BPC’s hotels, motels and tourism facilities. Directors Guild Bangladesh will also support positive and engaging presentation of BPC’s properties in Bangladesh and abroad through visual storytelling. The names of relevant BPC commercial units will be used as shooting-spot identifiers in productions.
BPC Chairman Saema Shaheen Sultana expressed optimism that the two signatory organisations would extend maximum cooperation to each other in promoting BPC’s commercial properties. She said the MoU would further accelerate the promotion of BPC’s commercial units at home and overseas and encourage both organisations to work together to expand tourism in the future.
Directors Guild Bangladesh President Shahiduzzaman Selim thanked BPC for the opportunity to collaborate with a reputed state-owned organisation, saying the agreement would help showcase Bangladesh’s heritage, culture and tourism to global audiences through drama and audio-visual content.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
