Career
Early career
In 1977, Salahuddin Lavlu moved to Dhaka, to join the Aranyak Natyadal Theatre, where he played roles in stage plays until 1985 but desired to focus on other activities. During 1979–84, he used to act as a member of the director's panel of the theatre.
He directed several dramas since 1989-95 as the founder member of Desh Natok, and later on, was elected chief of the executive committee of the same group. After Bangladesh Television (BTV) started its own production, he appeared in several television dramas. In the early 1990s, he explored other options and began working as a photographer. In 1997, after working as a photographer for about six years, he found a new passion as a director.
Acting and directing
Salahuddin Lavlu made his Television film directorial debut with Koitob, written by Masum Reza.[4] Among the critically acclaimed television drama he directed by 2004 are Dichakrojaan (1997), Gahargachi (1997), Ekjon Aynal Lashkar (1999), Adhuli (2002) and Gor (2002).[5]
The communities in villages are strongly-woven together. They are simple and transparent people with very little demands and very small dreams. And they have deep concerns for people around them and they are extremely hospitable. The people in the city however are the complete opposite. They are very individualistic. They have no concern for people outside their immediate family and friends. Moreover, most of the people living in the city have deep roots in villages and when they watch my productions, they can relate to the life style and the characters.
— Salahuddin Lavlu
