Video Production in Rajshahi
Libanza Films produces silk and agro-industry films, heritage documentaries, institutional videos, TVCs and OVCs in Rajshahi, Bangladesh's "Silk City" on the northern bank of the Padma. Our Dhaka crew handles workshop access, heritage-site permissions and border-area logistics across the north-west.
Recent Work in Rajshahi
A silk institutional documentary]
A video documentary on tracing Rajshahi silk from silkworm to finished sari, filmed in rearing houses, reeling units and weaving workshops.
What the location demanded: lighting small, dark workshops without disturbing the weavers, and timing the shoot to the rearing cycle.
Rajshahi Locations We Film
Padma Riverfront
Wide river views, embankment promenades and sandbar chars — Rajshahi's signature backdrop for lifestyle, brand and documentary work. The far bank is the India border.
Sopura Silk Area
Rearing houses, reeling units and weaving workshops that show Rajshahi silk from cocoon to sari — for fashion, craft and industry films.
Puthia Temple Complex
Terracotta temples and the old Rajbari around a lake, about 30 km from the city — one of the richest heritage locations in northern Bangladesh.
We also film at the Varendra Research Museum (Bangladesh's oldest museum, founded in 1910), the 16th-century Bagha Mosque, the University of Rajshahi campus and, in season, the mango orchards.

Who Commissions Video in Rajshahi
Rajshahi is the centre of Bangladesh's silk industry and home to the Bangladesh Sericulture Development Board. With neighbouring Chapainawabganj and Naogaon, it forms the country's main mango belt, and its universities have earned it the name "Education City". That shapes who needs video here:
- Silk weavers, fashion houses and craft brands — product films, brand stories and process documentaries from a centuries-old silk tradition.
- Mango growers, agro-processors and exporters — orchard-to-market films, food-safety and export presentations.
- Universities, colleges and research institutes — admissions, institutional and research communication videos.
- NGOs and development programmes — Barind Tract drought, irrigation, agriculture and livelihood documentation.
- Tourism and heritage bodies — destination films for Puthia, the Padma and the region's archaeological sites.

Corporate AV and documentary production in Rajshahi starts from BDT 2,50,000, OVCs from BDT 3,50,000 and TVCs from BDT 5,50,000. Because the core crew and equipment travel from Dhaka, quotes also include travel and accommodation, itemised separately.
Rajshahi is roughly 250 kilometres from Dhaka. By road, which is how equipment travels, the journey usually takes 5 to 6 hours via the Jamuna Bridge, and the intercity train takes a similar time. Key crew can fly to Shah Makhdum Airport in about 45 minutes. Most shoots budget a travel day each way.
Yes. Rajshahi is the centre of Bangladesh's silk industry, and we film the full process from silkworm rearing and reeling to handloom and power-loom weaving in the Sopura silk area. Access is arranged with each workshop or factory, and weavers are filmed with their consent.
The harvest season runs roughly from May to July, when orchards and mango markets in Rajshahi and neighbouring Chapainawabganj are at their busiest. Blossom in February and March also films well. Orchard owners' permission is arranged in advance, as harvest days are short and busy.
Yes, but the Padma forms the India border along Rajshahi city, so river and char filming needs border-area awareness and local coordination. Drone flights need Civil Aviation Authority of Bangladesh (CAAB) approval, typically 3 to 4 weeks in yellow zones, plus border-area clearance, and are heavily restricted near the border.
Yes, with permission. The Puthia temple complex and other protected sites need approval from the heritage authorities, the Varendra Research Museum from its management, and the University of Rajshahi from the university administration. We arrange these as part of pre-production, usually allowing one to two weeks.
