Adil Murad is a Pakistani film producer and actor in films, television serials and telefilms. He is the son of actor Waheed Murad.[1]
Career
In the 1980s, Adil made his debut as a child actor and appeared in his father's film Hero which was released in 1985. The film, which his father also wrote, was a silver jubilee hit at the box office. After this success, he continued to work in more films. He made his acting debut in the Pakistani Urdu colour film Raja Sahib in 1996. Although the film didn't do well at the box office due to weak direction and a poorly developed storyline, his performance received highly positive feedback.[3] Since then, he has been working in telefilms as an actor and as producer. Later, he was cast by Shoaib Mansoor in his telefilm Streets of Karachi, which was based on the life of a couple in Karachi and the ups and downs of the city.[4] In 2016, when the ARY Film Awards annonuced the Special Recognition Award for Waheed's lifelong contributions to film, Adil received the award on behalf of his father.[5][6]
