In a career spanning decades, Jaaved has effortlessly portrayed a diverse range of characters, demonstrating his immense talent and versatility as an actor.

From the body language to the dialogue delivery a lot must be focused on while playing such a character, and I am glad that I got the opportunity of presenting a different side of me as an actor.”
‘The Magic of Shiri’ is an enchanting series that seamlessly weaves together elements of fantasy, mystery, and emotion.
