A leading role in the romantic drama Yaqeen Ka Safar (2017) proved to be a breakthrough for Mir. Mir's performance won him the Lux Style Award for Best Actor and as well as the Hum Award for Best Actor.[1] In 2018, he made his film debut with Parwaaz Hay Junoon as a fighter-pilot and played the poet-politician Jameel in period drama Aangan. In 2018, he debuted as a featured artist in the eleventh season of Coke Studio. Early lifeAhad Raza Mir was born on September 29, 1993 in Karachi, Sindh. He is the son of Asif Raza Mir, an actor and producer, and Samra Raza Mir, a housewife. He has one younger brother, Adnan Raza Mir. Mir's father is a veteran actor and producer of Pakistani film and television industry; his paternal grandfather, Raza Mir (d. 2002),[2] was a filmmaker who also served as cinematographer for the first ever Pakistani film, Teri Yaad (1948).[3] His cousin Haroon Shahid is a prominent singer-turned-actor.[4] Mir spent two years at Performing Arts High School,[5] and graduated from the University of Calgary in Bachelor of Fine Arts.[6] CareerCareer beginnings and stage roles (2010–2016)Mir started his career in 2010, before pursuing his education in Canada, with his father's production company A&B Entertainment. He played a brief role of Wasif in Hum TV's romantic-drama Khamosiyan.[7] He then moved to Canada for his bachelors in BBA but later he changed his major to BFA to pursue his career in acting, he explained, "for as long as I can remember, acting is the only career that I've wanted to pursue in my life, although I was enjoying BBA but I realized half way through that I wasn't internally happy. I discerned that when you have a plan A, there's no point of having a plan B. There should be one plan and it should be your only goal, that's when I decided to make the switch and changed from BBA to BFA in university of Calgary."[8] During his bachelors he started his career through stage, performing, directing and writing in several musicals in theatre groups around the Calgary. He played Tony in West Side Story in his university production of U of C Operetta Company and went onto perform recurring roles in plays such as A Picture with a Bullet, The Tempest, Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth, Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo and Naughty But Nice; for the later he won the (now defunct[9]) Calgary Theatre Critics’ Award for Best Actor Musical also known as The Critters.[10] Mir wanted to move to Toronto, but instead decided to come back to Pakistan to work in films and television,[10] "It was one fine morning when I got this wild idea of moving to Pakistan as I had not been there from over a decade. Ever since that decision, I've been quite lucky and very grateful to be accepted by the people here."[8] Rise to prominence (2017–present)In 2017, he started auditioning for Hum TV's production house MD Productions and was cast as a leading role in Yaqeen Ka Safar and a recurring role in Sammi, the latter went into production early but he gained a wider recognition and fame with the former where he played a grief-stricken brother as Dr. Asfand Yaar,[11][12] alongside Sajjal Ali.[13] His performance earned him Lux Style Award for Best Actor, and won three Hum Awards including Hum Award for Best Actor.[14] He attributes his success to producer and filmmaker Momina Duraid, Mir said in an interview, "Momina Duraid has followed my career closely for the longest time. I was in Canada when she called me to offer the part. The goal has been to do a film since I was very young, and so I knew that I had to pack my bags and come to Pakistan right away."[15] Coming from an influential filmmaking family, Ahad was accused of nepotism to which his father said it is very "natural of people to made that comment" and acknowledged that "to some extent it was easier because there was a reference" but has also said "regardless of his family name, and he’s been able to overcome this, proving his mettle on his own."[18] Responding to such claims Mir said, "people kept telling me I was a star-kid, but I spent most of my time not knowing that. It was oblivious to me. I wanted people to take me, as an actor, very seriously. I'm not a social media celebrity, I'm not here to become famous; I’'m here to give Pakistan some good cinema and TV."[16] Talking about the difference in Canadian and Pakistani film exposure he said, "my vital years were spent in Canada and after moving here I feel I am very lucky that I got so much. But the adjustments I had to make were about life, like getting used to the weather, the way people worked and their punctuality here."[17] He further said, "here [In Pakistan] you need to have connections, your looks matter, how many followers you have etc. Talent, I feel, comes right at the end and sadly I feel Pakistan has more celebrities and less actors."[18] Mir made his Coke Studio debut as a featured artist in its upcoming eleventh-season, the director and producer of the series Zohaib Kazi said, "we saw something akin to it on Instagram. Not exactly like it but we saw Ahad Raza Mir singing a little and playing the guitar on Instagram. When we saw that, we thought he had something. To be able to play right while singing is an art in itself. We decided we should talk to him."[19] In 2018, Mir made his film debut with Haseeb Hassan's military-drama Parwaaz Hay Junoon, co-starring Hamza Ali Abbasi and Hania Amir which was released on Eid al-Adha 2018.[20] Mir replaced Osman Khalid Butt in a role of Flight Lieutenant Saad,[21] who opted out due to his other commitments.[22] Mir reunited with Sajjal Ali in Hum TV's Mohammed Ehteshamuddin directed[23] period drama Aangan (2018-2019), where he played a poet, Jameel. About the character, Mir said, "Jameel is the most confusing character I have ever played. He is a poet, he is a politician, he’s somebody who is on a journey of what love means, what family bonds mean, somebody who is actually quite relatable to everyone out there."[24] Upcoming projectsMir is set to star in Farhat Ishtiaq's untitled project for Hum TV.[25][26] The Shakespeare Company in a joint production with Vertigo Theatre has signed Ahad to play Hamlet in tragedy Hamlet: A Ghost Story based on Shakespeare classical play of the same name in 2019.[27][28] He will be the first South Asian actor to play Hamlet in Canada.[29] He also turned executive producer for the upcoming movie Kalasha, revolving around the culture of the Kalash people of the Chitral Valley.[30] Filmography
