Farzana Munny, chairperson of Gaan Bangla TV, has disclosed that she believes Apu Biswas exploited her in an interview, shedding light on the controversy involving her husband, Gaan Bangla’s CEO Kaushik Hossain Taposh, and renowned actress Shobnom Bubly. Munny initially revealed the affair on her Facebook wall in November, but later deleted the post, attributing it to hacking. A call recording between Munny and Apu Biswas recently went viral, blaming Bubly for the affair.

In an online interview hosted by Shahriar Nazim Joy, Munny clarified the situation, asserting that her Facebook ID wasn't hacked, and she willingly posted the status. Regarding the call record, she claimed Apu edited it, removing Biswas’s part and retaining only her own.

Munny described the call as occurring when she was mentally disturbed, with Apu sharing grievances against Bubly. Munny emphasized that she never anticipated the call being recorded and felt betrayed by the edited audio clip.

According to Munny, Apu Biswas used her to mend the relationship with Shakib Khan. Munny expressed the sadness of being used unethically, emphasizing that relationships cannot be fixed by exploiting someone.

Regarding the Facebook status of Bubly and Taposh, Munny attributed it to human fallibility, acknowledging that mistakes can happen over a 15-year relationship. She highlighted her and Taposh's efforts to elevate Bangladeshi music globally.

Munny also mentioned that Shobnom Bubly will star in TM Films’ production "Khela Hobe," alongside Pori Moni, under Tanim Rahman Anshu's direction, but the film's commencement date remains unknown.
