Since morning, fans had been eagerly waiting just to catch a glimpse of their favourite star, fondly known in the industry as the "megastar of Dhallywood."

Shakib Khan, who appeared in Banani earlier today for an inaugural event, had already sparked excitement among fans through social media posts announcing his arrival. As a result, a massive crowd gathered to see him.

The "Toofan" actor was seen sporting a completely new look for his upcoming film "Soldier".

Fans were ecstatic when the superstar arrived at the venue and greeted them with his signature charming smile.

"Just to see him once, I was waiting since 8am. When he arrived, looked at us, and waved his hands—it was truly a magical moment," said one of his fans. "To me, Shakib Khan is synonymous with entertainment. Since childhood, when I first began understanding films, I have watched only him."

Another fan shared, "I was awed by his aura. The madness people have for him cannot be explained in words. He has been ruling the industry for 26 years straight, and the way he constantly experiments with different roles and looks adds even more excitement for his audience."

His dedicated Shakibian fans did not miss the event either. One of them said, "Wherever Shakib bhai goes, we never miss the chance to be there for him. Whether it's an event or an award show, he always remembers us and keeps us in his thoughts. We, the Shakibians, will always love and stand by him!"

"Soldier", directed by Shakeeb Fahad, also stars Tanjin Tisha, Jannatul Ferdous Oishee, Tariq Anam Khan, and Tauquir Ahmed, among others. The film is expected to be released next year during the Eid festivals.
