Production

The Last Thakur is Sadik Ahmed's debut feature film and the first co-production between British distributor Artificial Eye and the UK's National Film and Television School. This new cooperative venture lets NFTS current students and recent graduates create fully funded feature films. It was executive produced by Philip Knatchbull, Nik Powell and Daniel Chamier. The producer was Tamsin Lyons. The crew was made up primarily of NFTS students.

The film is set in present-day Daulatpur, an isolated corner of Bangladesh. The Thakur's home in the film was a semi-derelict mansion of a Maharajah, which had around 400 people squatting in it as the filmed. Some became extras, while the film crew were able to help. They installed toilets and bathrooms to be left behind in return for allowing them to film inside.

The film was shot over 24 days in December 2007, on high definition cameras, a first for Bangladesh. The original set, purpose built, is the largest open air set ever built in Bangladesh.

The cast features some of Bangladesh's best known actors, among them Tariq Anam, Rubel Amin and Tanveer Hussan.
