BiographySaqib Saleem Qureshi (pronounced [saːqɪb səˈliːm qʊɾeːʃi]; born 8 April 1988) is an Indian actor and model who works in the Hindi film industry. He worked as a model before beginning his film career. After moving to Mumbai, Qureshi appeared in several advertisements. While doing television commercials, he grew interest in films and started auditioning for film roles, eventually signing a two-film deal with the Y-Films, a subsidiary of the Yash Raj Films (YRF), as an actor.

Qureshi made his acting debut with a leading role in the 2011 romantic comedy Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge, a box-office success. He was appreciated for his performance in the film and earned a Filmfare Award nomination in the Best Male Debut category. The following year, he completed his two-film contract with the Y-Films by appearing in Mere Dad Ki Maruti, a romantic comedy that proved to be a critical and commercial success. Subsequently, he played a closeted homosexual person in a segment directed by Karan Johar in the experimental anthology Bombay Talkies (2013) and his highest-grossing release came with the action thriller Race 3 (2018).

In addition to acting in films, Qureshi is an active charitable worker, has a number of endorsement deals, and a member of the "Mumbai Heroes" at the Celebrity Cricket League, a non-professional men's cricket league in India. The actor's interest in stand-up comedy has increased lately because of his upcoming role in “Comedy Couple”, a rom-com co-starring Shweta Basu Prasad that is based in Gurgaon against the backdrop of the burgeoning stand-up comedy scene in the city.
