He was called Master Bibhu, one of the most prominent child actors in Bengali films and very popular with actors like Jahar Ganguly and Chhabi Biswas. He played the title role in the movie Prahlad (1952) and did movies like Bindur Chhele (1952), Dhruba (1953), Rani Rashmoni (1955), Dui Bon (1955).

 It was only in 1998 that he got the dream role of Jatayu. His first film as Jatayu was Bombaiyer Bombete (2003) and he also acted as Jatayu in Kailashey Kelenkari (2007), Tintorettor Jishu (2007) and Gorosthaney Sabdhan (2010). He was legendary in his performance and managed to capture in essence the spirit of the character so well that even Sandip Ray, the director, found him perfect as a replacement. He had completed dubbing for the Feluda film Royal Bengal Rahasya the day before he died. Initially, it was difficult to replace the legendary actor, Santosh Dutta as Jatayu, but he became popular with time.
