Hi, I'm Towfiqur Rahman Turzo, the creator of KHELA.
I will be completely honest with you: I am not a hardcore football fanatic. But I live in Bangladesh, and when the World Cup arrives, you can't escape the magic. The whole country transforms. The rooftops fill with flags, the streets light up, and every conversation turns into a debate over Brazil vs. Argentina.
I wanted to join in on the fun with my friends, but I quickly realized that if you aren't a football expert, surviving the World Cup in Dhaka is incredibly confusing.
I was constantly asking: Wait, what time is the match in our time zone? Where is a good place to actually sit and watch it? Why is every cafe completely booked by the time we arrive?
I realized that enjoying the biggest sporting event in the world shouldn't be this stressful. You shouldn't have to scroll through dozens of Facebook food groups or call five different restaurants just to figure out where to hang out.
That is why I built KHELA.
I designed KHELA to be the ultimate cheat code for the World Cup, made for everyone. Whether you are a die-hard fan who hasn't missed a match in ten years, or just someone who wants to find a cool cafe in Dhanmondi with a big screen, AC, and a great food deal—KHELA does the heavy lifting for you.
I built the platform so that anyone can enjoy the festival without the headache. Just pick a match, find a spot, book your seat, and enjoy the vibe.
