Chorki’s latest 2026 drama series, Aatka, premiered on January 14, quickly catching viewers’ attention with its unique blend of family conflicts, budding romance, and supernatural mystery. The show stands out in the Bangladeshi streaming landscape by combining heartfelt storytelling with unexpected twists that keep audiences hooked.
Core Plot: Dreams, Duty, and Ghostly Intrigue
The story follows Fayaz, a finance graduate returning to Bangladesh after his grandmother’s death. He grapples with family expectations while pursuing his dream of opening a salon. Along the way, childhood friend Chumki, cousin Muniya, and a ghostly presence guide and challenge him, adding layers of suspense and intrigue.
This mix of realistic dilemmas—balancing dreams with familial duty—paired with eerie supernatural elements, gives Aatka a distinctive narrative edge.
Why Aatka Feels Different
Unlike conventional Bangla dramas, Aatka seamlessly blends emotional family moments—reunions, generational clashes, and land disputes—with horror-comedy and romance. The title, meaning “something sudden or abrupt,” reflects the show’s rapid tonal shifts from lighthearted “adda” (chat) scenes to chilling ghostly encounters, creating a rhythm that surprises and engages viewers.
Star-Studded Cast and Talented Crew
Directed by Arafat Mohsin Nidhi and written by Raba Khan, the series features a talented ensemble including Abul Hayat, Saberi Alam, Rosey Siddiqui, Arosh Khan as Fayaz, and Sunerah Binte Kamal. The combination of seasoned actors and promising newcomers enhances the authenticity and emotional resonance of family dynamics on screen.
Viewer Appeal: Humour, Emotion, and Mystery
Early reviews highlight Aatka’s balance of humour, drama, and suspense. With 25-minute episodes, the series is designed for compact binge sessions, appealing to viewers who enjoy fast-paced storytelling that intertwines real-life dilemmas with supernatural thrills.
Streaming on Chorki, Aatka is proving to be more than just a ghost story—it’s a narrative about family, ambition, and unexpected twists that keep audiences coming back for more.
