Kaiser on Hoichoi: Bengali OTT platform Hoichoi is bringing another show from across the border. This time, it’s a detective thriller, Kaiser. With Afran Nisho in the title role and directed by Tanim Noor, Kaiser is the story of a homicide detective from Dhaka, who is addicted to video games, and solves cases by playing video games. The show will be released on Hoichoi on July 8.
Hoichoi shared the Kaisar trailer on social media, and the caption read: "He is a gamer, and gamers never give up."
As the trailer suggests, the story revolves around Kaiser, who appears to be a flawed human being in nature but also a genius detective.
In an interview, Tanim Noor has said Kaiser is his dream project. “We have grown up reading famous novels of Indian detectives such as 'Feluda', 'Tin Goyenda', 'Byomkesh', and 'Sherlock Holmes'. However, we don't have many Bangladeshi or famous detectives from Dhaka,” Noor was quoted as saying in his interview to The Daily Star.
The trailer shows Kaiser is on a mission to solve a double murder mystery.
Popular Bangladeshi actor Afran Nisho’s arrival on Hoichoi seems to have created a buzz among the audience. The actor has said he is very happy and excited to be a part of the series.
“I wanted to work with a platform that creates innovative content and delivers it to Bengalis all over the world. My character Kaiser is a genius detective, who has various problems within him. I was really drawn towards the character as it had a lot of scopes to experiment with,” he told The Daily Star.
Nisho said he was overwhelmed by the response he got from viewers after the launch of the Kaiser trailer. This is his first project for Hoichoi.
The web series cast also includes Mostafizur Noor Imran, Ahmed Reza Rubel, Nader Chowdhury, Reekita Nondine Shimu, Shahed Ali, Shatabdi Wadud, Sumon Anowar, Deepanwita Martin, Imtiaz Barshon, and Naziba Basher, among others.
