Saleh Biplob is a Bangladeshi journalist who worked in the first decade of the country's commercial TV broadcasting. I first saw him as a 'Channel I' journalist, although he joined TV almost eight years after beginning his career in the newspaper. He was still a faraway figure for me five years later when I started working as a crime reporter in Dhaka. I was able to get close to him just a few days after the start of political reporting. Then, as my interest in TV dramas and films grew, I convinced him to act in a fictional production. However, he failed to show up at the shooting location at the last minute. Yet my relation with him never deteriorated. Our intimacy has grown with each passing day. That's why, after meeting him after so many years, it seemed like we had a chat just yesterday. Today, I'll reveal another secret, this man's appearance influenced me to grow a moustache.
