He embarked on a stage career in his youth and started writing plays while in his 20s. His Sundar Sevi Sangha in Guwahati was among the pioneers to introduce actresses in Assamese theatre. His works Shikha or 'Flame' in 1957 and Jyotirekha i.e. 'Ray of Light' in 1958 brought him to public attention. They rapidly became standards for Assamese groups. The experimental Nayika-natyakar i.e. 'Heroine and Dramatist' in 1975 was translated into English as Cross Fire.
