He acted in one feature film titled “Shahoshi Hero Alom.”

In 2018, Alom decided to contest in the 2018 Bangladeshi general election and he participated as an independent candidate in the Bogra-4 constituency.

On December 10, 2018, High Court instructed Bangladesh Election Commission to accept his candidature form as the authority denied his candidature earlier and Alom contested in the election as an independent candidate.

His candidacy drew so much media attention that, in 2018, he became the 2nd Bangladeshi, only behind Khaleda Zia, to be in the top 10 in the category of people in 2018 google search trend in Bangladesh.

Eventually, he lost in the election getting only 638 votes in his name and BNP candidate Mosharraf Hossain won the seat of that constituency (Bogra-4).
