Chowdhury began his career as a producer and programme organiser at Radio Pakistan Dhaka in 1960, later joining PTV Dhaka in 1965. Atiqul Haque Chowdhury has been one of the leading personalities actively involved in the BTV in its golden era (from late 1970s to late '80s). He started as a producer and retired as the deputy director general of the state-run TV station in 1991. During his tenure, he made over 450 TV plays.[2][3] A number of quality radio plays were also written and directed by him.

Atiqul Haque Chowdhury has been entertaining the audience of radio and television by producing many good dramas in the last 50 years. Apart from producing his own radio and TV plays, he has projected many good pieces of literature of the greatest Bengali writers through both the media, and has earned a name and fame by his analytical and insightful creativity. With his spellbinding dramatic skill, he could make the listeners and viewers sob or burst into laughter, and he raised watchers' emotions to the fullest. He has skilfully manifested his own literary taste, social consciousness and creative outlooks not only through his writing but also through the plays written by others. He was committed to experimenting with plays and avoiding the usual way of producing plays. He has also manipulated symbols and allegory. His treatment of symbols and allegory was entertaining as well as thought-provoking.[3] Imbibed with true patriotism he is still on the drama horizon of Bangladesh as a beacon light to inspire his listeners and viewers irrespective of caste, creed and birth.[4]
