Chanchal Chowdhury
Born in Pabna, Chowdhury graduated from University of Dhaka and initially served as a lecturer at UODA while acting in some Aranyak Nattyadal stage productions. He had a breakthrough with the play Che'r Cycle (2003) which was followed by prolific work in television. His popular roles in the dramas Shurjer Hashi (2005) and Talpatar Shepai (2006) culminated in a film career starting with the critically praised Rupkothar Golpo (2006).
Over the following period of time, Chowdhury gained reputation for being selective about his projects. He headlined films such as the musical Monpura (2009), the thrillers Aynabaji (2016) and Debi (2018), and the mystery-drama Hawa (2022)—all four of which rank among the highest-grossing Bangladeshi films of all time. His other notable works include the television dramas Vober Hat (2007) and Sakin Sarisuri (2009); the musical drama film Moner Manush (2010) and the Mrinal Sen-biopic Padatik (2024); and the web productions Taqdeer (2021), Dui Diner Duniya and Karagar (both 2022). Chowdhury is a celebrity endorser of brands and products and is also involved with social causes related to women, children and disabled people.
