His wife, American-born Catherine Masud, was his creative and life partner.

Together they wrote scripts, often co-directed, and toured the country and the world with their films. Catherine also edited all of their work.
Masud died on August 13, 2011 in a tragic road accident while returning from work on location for his upcoming feature film Kagojer Phul (The Paper Flower), on the 1947 partition of Bengal. Also killed in the accident was his longtime cinematographer and friend Mishuk Munier, along with three other colleagues. Catherine Masud and four others survived the accident.

In 1971 the people of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) waged a bitter war of liberation against West Pakistan, which ended in December in 1971 with the foundation of the state of Bangladesh. The film Muktir Gaan is an special and rear archive of footage of this war. Firstly the footage taken by American filmmaker Lear Levin shot of a group of young musicians and actors who at the time travelled through the country with battle songs and political puppet shows. The film follows the group not only during their performances for refugees and guerillas but also during their travels, which has produced many melancholy pictures. Levin's material is available for the first time thanks to two filmmakers from Bangladesh who, being discontent with the present regime, wanted to remind the Bengal people of the initial motives of the war of liberation: freedom and democracy. Despite opposition by the government, the film was screened in Bangladesh where it was a resounding success.
