Early life

Nadeem was born in Vijaywada, Andhra Pradesh, British India. After the independence in 1947, Nadeem migrated with his family to Pakistan where they settled in Karachi. He graduated from Islamia College, Karachi. At that time, the Islamia Club was considered the centre of great film and radio artists. Different musical competitions were organised to showcase the talent of the college students. Nadeem, along with artists Talat Hussein, M. Zaheer Khan, Aftab Azeem, Saleem Jafry, and TV producer Iqbal Haider, were all discovered at the club. He and his friends, Ameer Ahmed Khan and Qasim Siddiqui, won several music competitions. At one of those musical competitions, he was noticed by the then famous singer Firdousi Begum. She was impressed by his singing talent and encouraged him to try playback singing in Dhaka's film industry.[1] Because of his singing talent, he sang a song for an Urdu film called Sehra, the music of which was composed by Nisar Bazmi. Unfortunately, the film was never released.

Nadeem travelled to Dhaka for a cultural trip, organised by Islamia Club, where he got a chance to sing a song in Captain Ehtisham's new film Chakori. Captain was making a low budget black and white film, because his previous colour film, Sagar, had flopped. At the time of casting, he chose Shabana as the heroine and East Pakistani (Bengali) film actor Azeem as the hero. But Azeem refused to work in the film because he was offered a very small amount of money. So Ehtisham decided to cast Nadeem in his film as the hero, which was contrary to his brother Mustafeez's will. The film was released on May 19, 1967, in both East and West Pakistan. The film became such a blockbuster that it made Nadeem an overnight superstar, and it also became the second 'Platinum Jubilee' film of Pakistan. The Presidential Award, Pride of Performance, was awarded to Nadeem in 1991.

Nadeem shuttled between Karachi, Lahore, and Dhaka to act in movies. In 1971, after the fall of Dhaka and formation of Bangladesh, he settled in Lahore. Now he has moved again from Lahore to Karachi.

Career

Nadeem’s film career spans over 42 years.[2] In the presence of high class performers like Santosh Kumar, Muhammad Ali, Waheed Murad, Habib, and Kamal, he won Best Actor’s Nigar Award in his first film Chakori. With consecutive super hit movies, namely Chotey sahib and Sangdil, he created a consistent record of success. Nadeem's Diamond Jubilee films include Nadan (1973), Anari, Pechan (1975), Talashi (1976), Aina (1977), Hum Donon (1980), Lajawab, Qurbani (1981), Sangdil (1982), and Dehleez (1983).[3][clarification needed]

Nadeem's Aina was successful in Pakistan. It ran continuously for more than five years in Karachi. It also won 12 Nigar Awards, which still remains the highest number of awards won by a single Urdu movie, so it may be termed as a record breaking and trend setting movie in many aspects.[citation needed]

In 1980, an Indian film, Noor Jahan Noor Jahan, was granted special permission for an exhibition in Pakistan which turned into a challenge for Pakistan cinema. Mastermind Director Parvez Malik, accepted the challenge and produced Hum Donoo, presenting Nadeem in double roles. Hum Donoo proved a blockbuster which ran for 165 weeks in Karachi, becoming the second most exhibited movie after Aina. Meanwhile Nadeem’s two films Bandish and Saima, also got released and won laurels in a neck to neck fight with Noor Jahan. Bandish was shown for 86 and 82 weeks in Lahore and Karachi respectively. Earlier in 1971, Nadeem became the first actor to play three different characters in his film Jaltey Suraj Key Nichey.

There was a time in the 1990's when films in the national language Urdu had almost been abandoned. In these circumstances Nadeem’s film Insaniyat Ke Dushman, entirely in Urdu, was an unprecedented success which once again attracted film producers towards the production of Urdu movies.

Besides acting Nadeem[4] has also sung many hit songs a credit to his past as a play back singer. In fact Nadeem, basically a singer, is the first actor in Pakistan to have sung for movies. The majority of his two dozen songs have been popular in Pakistan. In 1967 his duet with Firdousi Begum “Kahan ho tum ko dhoond rahi hain yeh baharain yeh saman” was a super hit street song, in 1989, his duet with the melody queen Noor Jahan “Mundia dupatta chad mera” was also a phenomenal hit.

During 2001 and 2002, Urdu films suffered from lack of purposeful topics. Nadeem found no point in acting in such movies and opted to return to Karachi, his native town, saying goodbye to the film industry. TV producers, however, wasted no time in casting Nadeem in Drama Serials. Nadeem, therefore, appeared in 8 TV Serials, namely Bisaat, Chaltey Chaltey, Chehrey, Muhabbat Ka Ek Peher, Ambulance, Ek Safar Tanha He, Jaisey Jaante Nahin and Malika (2005). He also acted in 6 long and short plays, namely Haar Jeet, Rakh Mein Chingari, Fursat, Laws in Law, Wujood and Musafir Khaana (2005). He was co-producer in Bisaaat and Teri Yaad Aagai, a musical program in which Nadeem rendered his favourite songs. All these productions got popularity and applause from the viewers. Completing his 41 years on the Pakistani Screen, Nadeem seems to have taken a fresh start with the release of movies namely Aatish, Tum Say Pyaar Hai and Khuley Aasman Ke Nichey are his notable coming movies.

Nadeem is currently singing as a play back singer with Music Director Rehber Hussain in his up coming movie Zindagi Khoobsoorat Hai.
