Born to a Serb father and Bosniak mother in Sarajevo, Đurić rose to prominence throughout the former Yugoslavia with the hit comedy series Top lista nadrealista during the 1980s. Đuro became something of an epitome for a Bosnian person, especially due to his accent and slang. He was also the frontman of Sarajevo rock band Bombaj Štampa.

During the Yugoslav war he moved to Slovenia where he still resides.
