Nasrin Akter Nipun, known by her stage name as Nipun[2] is a Bangladeshi film actress. She was the former general secretary of Bangladesh Film Artistes Association, the organisation of local film artists. She won the National Film Awards twice - Best Actress for Shajghor (2007) and Best Supporting Actress for Chander Moto Bou (2009).[3] As of 2014, she has acted in a total of 35 films, including Pitar Ason, Rickshawalar Prem, Praner Shami, and Porichoi.[2]

Background

[edit]

Akter earned her bachelor's in computer science from Moscow State University[4] and she then moved to Los Angeles.[4] She learned Kathak dance in Moscow.[2]

Career

[edit]

Akter debuted in her acting career in 2006.[3]

Akter acted in the films of West Bengal, including Porichoi (2013) with Prosenjit Chatterjee.[2]

In 2017, Akter was elected as an active member of Bangladesh Film Development Corporation.[5]

Akter has been declared as the newly elected general secretary of the BFAA on Saturday February 5, 2022, while her competitor Zayed Khan disqualified by its appellate board.[6] Sheikh Selim lobbied to get her elected Bangladesh Film Artistes Association.[7] But on 2 March 2022, High Court declared Zayed Khan as rightfully elected general secretary of BFFA.[8] On 21 November 2022, The Appellate Division suspended the High Court verdict. As a result of this order, Akter remained as the general secretary of BFAA.[9]

Until 2006, Akter lived in Los Angeles with her husband, Muhammad Sajjad Hosen Opu and a daughter, Tanisha.[2][10]

In February 2024, Akter purchased nomination papers from Bangladesh Awami League for the seats reserved for women in Jatiya Sangsad for the Chittagong Division. But she eventually did not get the nomination.[11] Nipun is very close and a personal friend of veteran politician Sheikh Selim, who made 17 calls to get Nipun elected as the BFAA secretary.
