For this purpose, he wished to apply for a course in Camera & Direction at the Film & Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune. However, during his second year of college in Mumbai, he was selected as a background dancer in the 1993 film- Dalal.His first stint as an assistant director came with the TV show- Tara (1993). Fortunately, within a few months, he was chosen as the director of the show. Notably, Tara was one of the longest running shows in the 1990s.He then went on to direct a number of TV shows primarily for Zee TV & Sony. While climbing the steps of success, he met TV & Film Producer Ekta Kapoor. The latter was so impressed by the directors vision that she even offered him to make pilot (standalone) episodes for her then popular TV shows- Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki, Kyuki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Kasauti Zindagi Kay.Slowly and steadily, he himself began his own production house in 2002.Out of the 9 Hindi movies, Basu has directed so far, 4 have been produced by the Bhatt camp..Just when he was expecting his first child, Basu was diagnosed with leukemia (blood cancer). After months of chemotherapy, Basu was miraculously saved, as his chances of survival were a mere 20%, according to doctors. Owing to this rough phase, Basu missed out on a number of films.In an interview, Basu revealed a peculiar incident, because of which he thinks that he is the reason for his fathers death. He said, I was writing a death scene in a television serial and imagined how it would be if my dad died. That night, I went into his room, hugged him and came back. Shortly after I had written that scene he had a heart attack and died..
