Beauty Boarding, the writer-publisher rendezvous, has changed drastically in Bangla Bazaar over the years. This old motel-cum-restaurant situated at the end of the Bangla Bazaar street, on the verge of Paridas road, once was the hub for creative and progressive chit-chatting.
It has been said that, Once Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman came to Beauty Boarding for its famous adda (chitchat). Currently the place is managed by Tarok Saha and Somor Saha, sons of Prohallad Saha who was killed in 1971 along with 17 other staffs and boarders of this place.
Before the liberation war movement, this place was frequented by creative people from various fields – writers, artists, film directors, politicians, singers and composers. Now-a-days, a group of writers arranges a get-together once a year in memory of that time. The menacing traffic of Old Dhaka as the sole reason for losing the culture of gossiping at Bangla Bazaar that had developed centering Beauty Boarding years ago.
Poet Nazrul used to come to 14 Bangla Bazaar, where was the office of Begum magazine, and the writer Nasir Ali used to sit at Nawroze, which was the reason to turn this place a hub for writers. However, Now a days there is no longer need for such a gathering, as writers do not need to come to the publishers for submitting their works or proof reading. With the advent of technology they can do those things from their home. Rather, he finds coming to Bangla Bazaar just for chitchat, a waste of time.
