Fawad Afzal Khan (born 29 November 1981) is a Pakistani actor, producer, screenwriter, and singer known for his work in films and television.[2] Having received several accolades, including a Filmfare Award, two Lux Style Awards, and six Hum Awards, he is widely regarded one of the greatest contemporary artists hailing from Asia.

Khan began his acting career on the television sitcom, Jutt and Bond. He formed an alternative rock band, Entity Paradigm, with the show's co-stars and began his music career as its lead singer. The band appeared on the finale of Pepsi Battle of the Bands in 2002 and Khan became known for its 2003 debut album, Irtiqa. After about 250 performances, he left the band to pursue a film career. Khan made his film debut with a supporting role in the social drama, Khuda Kay Liye (2007), one of Pakistan's highest-grossing films.

He had his first success in television period drama, Dastaan (2010), for which he received the Best Male Actor Award at the Pakistan Media Awards. Khan played a lead role in the Pakistani television serial Humsafar (2011), and appeared in Sultana Siddiqui's family drama Zindagi Gulzar Hai (2012). For both performances, he received the Lux Style Award for Best Actor. Khan made his Bollywood debut with the romantic comedy, Khoobsurat (2014), for which he received the Filmfare Award for Best Male Debut. He further received critical praise for starring in the family drama Kapoor & Sons (2016), which earned him a nomination for the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actor.

Following a brief hiatus, he made a comeback with his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in Ms. Marvel (2022) as Hassan. His action-adventure film The Legend of Maula Jatt (2022) became Pakistan's highest-grossing film of all time.
