Actor, host, comedian, keyboardist, rapper, singer, and songwriter Ahmad Ali Butt is from Pakistan. Butt started his musical career as a rapper and vocalist for the alternative rock group Entity Paradigm (EP). Additionally, he has made appearances in the comedies Inspector Khoji, Rubber Band, and Jutt and Bond. His career as a comedian has also been pursued. Ahmad Ali Butt was born into a Kashmiri-born Punjabi family. He is the son of the late vocalist Zil-e-Huma and the maternal grandson of Shaukat Hussain Rizvi, an Azamgarh-born film director, and Noor Jehan, an actress and playback singer. Aqeel Butt, his father, was a jeweler. Ahmad has three brothers.
Butt joked during his appearance on the program that Mohammad Nawaz, Pakistan’s all-rounder, had cursed the cricket team for the no-ball in the match between India and Pakistan because of the humiliating loss of the neighboring rivals to the England cricket team. Ahmed Ali Butt said that the semi-final results had proven his conviction that India would not go to the finals, which he had held since the start of the World Cup. The comedic actor further reminded the audience of the captains’ photoshoot for the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 and showed a picture of Jos Buttler and Babar Azam, the captains of the final opponents, sharing the center location on the group portrait with the prized trophy.
But unlike Ijaz, actor Ahmed Ali Butt recently disclosed how his wife Fatima Khan actually discovered previous texts on his phone and caught him cheating twice. The former EP rapper recently joined Vasay Chaudhry on a local celebrity discussion show. When asked about his marriage, Butt revealed that he had been dating Fatima over the course of more than nine years. He said to Chaudhry, “We were wonderful friends, and then we were together for nine years.” We used to communicate solely through phone calls because she was in London and I was here. A lot of money was spent on this connection. “But after nine years, we decided to get married, and we have been together ever since.”
He collaborated on the creation of the band’s debut song, “Feel Us,” alongside guitarist Zulfiqar Khan and singer Fawad Khan. The first song to become a commercial success and receive widespread praise from the general public was this one. Ahmad Ali Butt also rose to fame as a keyboardist in the rock music genre thanks to his distinctive playing style. He presided over the successive 11th and 12th Lux Style Awards in 2012 and 2013, respectively. The K-drama Squid Game is currently booming worldwide and is the most watched show on Netflix. Ali Abdul, a Pakistani character in the action-thriller series, is interestingly performed by a non-Pakistani actor, just like in any other movie or TV show in the world.
Although casting Indian actors as Pakistanis is quite common in Hollywood, it was disappointing to discover that even Korean shows, which are popular in Pakistan, didn’t make an effort to cast a Pakistani actor. This lack of representation has Ahmed Ali Butt feeling quite upset as well. The actor brought up an important point regarding the portrayal of Pakistani and Muslim characters in worldwide television programs and motion pictures. Why can’t these productions cast original Pakistani performers for such parts? he questioned, calling these casting selections “frustrating.”
