He did regular news coverage in the field of politics, business, energy, environment, and sports. He designed and produced news shows, wrote scripts for them, and also wrote, directed and produced news documentaries. He also anchored news shows and current affairs programs.

He has worked with CNN and Deutsche Welle Bangla. In DW, he has produced special multimedia reports for online, made web-videos, and also managed their social media pages.
