Salahuddin

Died in 2003

Salahuddin was born on 30 March 1926 in Noakhali. He made his debut as a director in 1961 and shot several Bengali-language films in East Pakistan, carefully made but without public success, before producing, writing and directing himself the adaptation of a tale from popular theatre that brought audiences back to Bengali cinema. The Dhaka press counted him, at his death, among the great craftsmen of the country's cinema. He died on 26 October 2003 in Indianapolis, in the United States.
