Zia Mohyeddin, the legendary actor, director, and voice artist, passed away today at the age of 91, leaving behind an unparalleled legacy in the Pakistani entertainment industry. Mohyeddin was a true icon and a mentor to many young artists, shaping the industry with his talent and hard work. He was not only a skilled actor and director but also a cultural ambassador of Pakistan, promoting Pakistani art and culture around the world. Mohyeddin’s contribution to the arts was recognized with the Pride of Performance in 1989 and Sitara-i-Imtiaz in 2019. As we bid farewell to this legend, let us remember his words, “Art is not what you see but what you make others see.” Zia Mohyeddin made us see the world through his eyes and his art, and for that, we will always be grateful. Rest in peace, sir.
