Shahzad Sheikh Biography

Pakistani actor Shahzad Sheikh, son of veteran entertainer Jawed Sheikh, built a career across television and film after training at the New York Film Acad

Early life and background

Shahzad Sheikh was born on 26 September 1982 in Patoki, Pakistan, and grew up in Okara. He comes from a family active in the Pakistani entertainment industry: his father is actor, director and producer Jawed Sheikh and his mother is actress Zeenat Mangi. His sister, Momal Sheikh, is also an actress.

After completing his early schooling in Okara, Sheikh went to the United States to study at the New York Film Academy, where he earned a degree in method acting and filmmaking. His education laid the foundation for a career that would span modelling, television, film and production.

Career

Sheikh started in the entertainment world as a model before making his television debut in 2011. His first acting role was a lead part in AAG TV's Dreamers, where he portrayed the character Mickey. That early exposure led to roles in popular television projects, including the fourth season of Kis Ki Ayegi Baraat, Annie Ki Ayegi Baraat, and a succession of serials that grew his visibility: Resham Se Resham, Hum Parinday and others.

A notable turning point came with the Geo TV drama Mi-Raqsam, in which he played Zeeshan. The performance increased his profile and opened the door to further starring opportunities in series such as Na Mehram, Halki Si Khalish, Mere Hamrahi, Shareek-e-Hayat and Bhabhi. He has also appeared in more than 25 telefilms, beginning with a role as Mikaal in the telefilm Family Man.

Sheikh moved into film after establishing himself on television. He made his feature-film debut in 2013 with a supporting role as Mikaal Qureshi in the sports drama Main Hoon Shahid Afridi. In 2015 he played the lead in the comedy-adventure Karachi Se Lahore. Beyond acting, Sheikh has expanded into film production: he served as a producer on the thriller Wajood, directed by his father Jawed Sheikh.
