He is Zahid Ahmed!


When he walks, his confidence manifests from his persona. When he speaks, his husky, warm voice makes people wonder. When he looks, he intimidates with his sublime expressions and when he acts his sterling talent gets everyone's attention, the words termed as ‘dialogues’-that he delivers-are complimented by his impeccable expressions. He is talented, he is intelligent, he is focused, he is optimistic, he believes in what he does, he is Zahid Ahmed!

Being a training manager in the telecom sector to a well known name in the drama industry-which is saturated with immense talent-is an achievement in itself. He stepped into acting by pulling some great acts in theaters. His acting was applauded and acknowledged by the audience. He pulled off the ever charismatic personality of Quadi-e-Azam quite well, as that admirable personality reflects in him too. He started his career in television by a drama serial ‘Mehram’. But the drama that grasps everyone’s attention was Alvida, where he played a negative character, the graph of Rameez had many shades, from being a simple guy-next-door to a scary psychopath, the character exhibits the true accelerating essence of the drama. And the way it was played by Zahid-with so much intensity-nobody could have match-up with that. He nailed the character. The character looked convincing and viewers loved to hate Rameez. The industry and viewers were confined to admit that after ages, there is someone who delivers a guy-next door role with the same conviction as he does an edgy enigmatic role. He excels in acting as he has shown his talent with versatility in different characters, be it a coward 'Zulfi' or a psycho 'Rameez' or an impassively cryptic 'Shavez'. He has it is all what it takes to be a convincing versatile actor. His expression changes calmly and effortlessly as a character grows. His spontaneously seems to be his pride possession.

Zahid Ahmed possesses huge fan following, but still he seems to be a humble and down-to-earth regular guy. He seems simple and quite sorted in his approach towards life. His words illustrate an utter optimism as he posts some motivating and inspiring posts. He replies to his fans, not that he needs to but he loves to. Zahid comments graciously and welcomes every sort of feedback. Having said that, his voice being the highlight of his personality is quite admirable and when he utters merely a sentence it becomes inevitable to watch him and one is bound not to switch channels further as a viewer is gazed with the personality he carries. His expressive eyes complement the respective character he is intended to play.


The drama industry in Pakistan is filled with many talented actors, but very few seem to be convincing with each and every character they play, such actors posses the 'x-factor' which make them unique, and there is no second thought to it that Zahid Ahmed is one of them. His spontaneous acting intends to make his way towards an immortal success and infinite admiration. He is deferential, he loves to be experimental, he is versatile, he communicates his dialogues with his expressive eyes, he is Zahid Ahmed!
