While it is a big achievement for himself, Gazi Rakayet feels privileged to the initiator of such a historic step in the entertainment industry. “I believe, it is indeed a matter of pride for every actor, director, producer, and crew member who works day and night but is deprived of international recognition despite being an absolute delight on or behind the screen. I had always dreamt of taking this project to the international audience and it has finally come true,” he adds.

Besides directing the film, Gazi Rakayet has also written the story, screenplay, and dialogues of “The Grave”. He has also played an important part in the film.
