Who is he?

Calling out all Hritik Roshan fans! A carbon copy of your favourite Bollywood hero is in our midst and ready to take the Pakistani showbiz industry by storm. As a professional model, actor and heartthrob, Asad Zaman is a force to be reckoned with. His green eyes, chiseled features and porcelain complexion make him our very own Hritik. With matching acting prowess, numerous TV commercials and serials to this credit, not to mention his victory in the Hero Bannay Ki Tarang 2011 competition, Asad managed to bag the lead role in his first international film Hijrat last year. However, his dream role is to represent the youth of the subcontinent and encourage them to follow their dreams.

Why we love him

What is shocking about Asad is how down to earth he is! Despite the media scrutiny and his drop-dead gorgeous looks, Asad remains as grounded as one can be. He loves to spend time at home with his parents or close friends, watching a football match or just hanging out. Loyal, warm and welcoming, Asad is every bit the guy-next-door.

The best part about Asad is that he epitomises the brawn with brains ideal. He is particularly interested in current affairs and holds a Masters degree in International Relations. He is also trained in Taekwondo and Wushu (Chinese martial arts). And as if this isn’t enough to make you drool, Asad also conducts martial arts classes for young kids in his spare time.

What you didn’t know about him

If it wasn’t for his love for acting, Asad would have joined the army or foreign services.

Asad loves all types of food but it has to be super spicy for him to enjoy it.

Asad is extremely close to his family and his mom and dad are his inspiration. He is in search of a like-minded girl to take home to his parents. Girls, call dibs while you can!

This is an extremely sexist (yes, sexism doesn't just apply to women) column. It should be discontinued. Else I want to see a similar column about women, just to maintain the gender equality.

sterry | 10 years ago | Reply Why must you compare Asad Zaman to Hrithik Roshan? Let's judge each on their own merit. I don't watch Indian movies but I heard that Hrithik Roshan's family originally comes from Gujranwala in Pakistan. That is more interesting to me than his role in Bollywood movies.
