Dorood is a polite and rather old way to say hello in Farsi (also Parsi or Persian), whilst Bedrood means see you next time or goodbye. In modern day Iran and most other Muslim countries however, Salām which is originally an Arabic word has become a more common greeting.

Dorood (also Dorud) is a city in the Lorestan province in western Iran. "Do" means two and "rood" means river and the word dorood means the place where two rivers meet each other.
