Pakistani model, RJ and actor Zahid Ahmed will play the role of a youngster suffering from split personality disorder in an upcoming drama serial titled Ishaq Zahe Naseeb.
Set to release right after Eidul Fitr, the role might prove to be the most difficult of the actor's life.

The Azad star, who is known for his masculine persona, is playing the role of Sameer, a rich young man in the drama who struggles with the disorder. The character has an alpha male attitude and a deep voice but starts identifying himself as a girl called Sameera upon violent fits.

Understandably, doing justice to both aspects of the role is the biggest challenge for Zahid.

As his male character Sameer, he is required to act like a feudal lord but as the identity of Sameera, he is bound to depict femininity in his body language, face and speech delivery.

If we can judge anything from the pictures and teasers, it can be said that Zahid has little to perfect in terms of acting. But, we will have to wait and see if the drama is well-received by the viewers!
