The media personality has been working hard constantly to purify the society by highlighting various inconsistencies of the society through his work. He also plays a significant role in promoting the ideals of civic awareness, culture and heritage through his wonderful acts.

Hanif Sanket, creator, director and host of popular TV reality show Ittadi, said he started his journey in media through writing in 1970s. "I have to remain busy for the making of Ittadi. For the last 33 years, I have to maintain a certain schedule, which is in the hand of Bangladesh Television. But, no matter how busy I am, I try to publish at least one book a year."

About "Songoto Prosongoto Osongoto", he said, "We witness an array of events in our social life. Some of which are relevant, some contextual, and others are irrelevant. These incidents make people cry-laugh and even sometimes increases our anxiety and frustration."

"People want to get rid of these thoughts. Therefore, it is appropriate to pay attention to these issues for a reasonable reason. Various issues occur in our life as we move forward. In contemplating its importance, it is necessary to give importance to the contemporary context. But due to various complications, crookedness, lack of speed, inconsistency, we do not work on time," Hanif added.

Some seasonal characters appear in society and try to disrupt our life. Their incessant speed of corruption and the misfortune of the policy can have a huge impact on the entire society. Inconsistency grows and the whole thing becomes inconsistent.
