“Aka” sees Vicky Zahed at his finest, blending his signature storytelling style with intense psychological tension and powerful character arcs. Speaking about the project, the director said, “AKA was a very emotional journey for me. While I’ve done several thrillers before, this was my first attempt at a social thriller. Through ‘AKA’, I wanted to experiment with audience expectations something I’ll only truly understand once the series is released.”
“Though I’ve worked with Nisho bhai on many projects, this is our first series together. It’s always a special experience working with him. Nabila apu was also extremely cooperative throughout the shoot. Altogether, AKA is a very important project for all of us”, he added.
