Popular model-turned-host Sharmin Lucky has recently acted in a new TV commercial (TVC) of RAK Ceramics. This new TVC was first telecast on Eid

day. The script revolves around a man who surprises his parents with a new apartment especially bought for them. In this commercial, Lucky enacts the role of an old woman. Draped in a white saree, the bespectacled and grey haired Lucky had a whole new persona.

Lucky said, “It was an enthralling experience, since I have always wanted to act in different roles. I was completely fascinated by the script. However, some of my well wishers didn't view my role in a positive light. As one of them questioned, 'What got you into acting as an elderly lady?’ However, I really

like the commercial.” Lucky added that the entire commercial had not been telecast which would have attracted more viewers.

Another new TV programme, Barighar Thikthak, hosted by Lucky was inaugurated on the occasion of Eid on ntv. A lifestyle-based programme, it was aired from the third day of Eid. In another piece of news, Lucky asserted that the shooting of the popular cookery show Siddiqua Kabir's Recipe would begin soon. “This show has a sizeable viewership and it is for this reason that we hope to revive the programme,” she said.
