His other notable television works include Ei Shob Din Ratri, Aaj Robibar, Ayomoy, Bohubrihi and Nokkhotrer Raat.

[3] Noor was born in Jalpaiguri in West Bengal (now in India) on 31 October 1946 to Abu Nazem Mohammad Ali and Amina.

[8] Following a bit of persuasion from the other cast Noor performed the role and thus began his career as an actor.

[citation needed] In 1966, he was admitted to Dhaka University to study law, where he met Natyaguru Nurul Momen as his teacher.

At the eve of Bangladesh Liberation War, Noor left Dhaka and came back to Nilphamari District when he received an order from his political party on 8 March 1971.

However, claiming he was not yet ready, he postponed participation until the subsequent general election in 2001, running in his home-town, Nilphamari.

Noor ceased to be an MP when parliament was dissolved in August 2024, following the quota reform movement.

[12] On 14 December 2013, Noor's motorcade in Nilphamari was attacked by activists of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami, causing the deaths of five people.

[13][14] Two days earlier, 70+ shops and businesses owned by the local Hindu community in his constituency,[15] had allegedly been attacked and burnt down by Jamaat activists.

According to media reports,[17] the road had been cut up preventing the convoy's movement, in what was described as a planned ambush, and the attackers were brandishing sharp weapons.

[19] On 15 September 2024, Noor was arrested from Bailey Road, Dhaka by the detective branch for a murder case filed over the death of hotel staff, Siam Sarder, in the Mirpur area during the quota reform movement on 18 July.

[20][21] He was also sued in another murder case of Golam Rabbani, the organising secretary of BNP's Lakshmichap union leader, in Nilphamari in 2014.

Noor is a former vice-chairman at Asiatic Three Sixty and a former managing director at Desh TV, but resigned from these posts when assuming his role as a minister.
