[edit]Aagha Ali was born on 4 December 1985 in Lahore, Punjab.
He is the youngest son of the widely known actor of the 1980s, Agha Sikandar (d. 1993), himself the son-in-law of the legendary singer, actor, and producer Inayat Hussain Bhatti, who is thus Agha Ali's maternal grandfather, making him a nephew of the television actor Waseem Abbas as well as a cousin of Ali Abbas and also the grandnephew of actor Kaifee.[3][9][10] His brother Ali Sikandar is also an actor and writer while singer-turned-actor, Ali Azmat is his mother's cousin.[11]
Aagha graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Arts from the Forman Christian College.
Career
[edit]Aagha started his journey in the entertainment industry while still in college, at the age of 19. He became active in theater and performed as an actor/singer in 15 to 20 theater plays.
Officially his TV career started as an anchor-host in 2006 with the channel ATV, and with the successful program Total Round Up. He won the Best Anchor Award for the same program at the ATV Awards in 2006.
He started his acting career with Yaad Piya Ki Aaye (2005) as Sameer, and then Satrangi (2008).[3]
He took a hiatus of about three years for his education, and during that time made the music video, "Mera Pehla Rock Song", which was launched at the platform of the national television PTV Home in the show Morning With Juggan on 9 January 2013.
His leading role in the romantic series Mein Hari Piya (2012), on Hum TV, was well received by the critics and the public, and earned him a nomination for the Hum Award for Best Soap Actor.[12] Rukhsaar, a television series on Geo TV, gained him further success.[13] This was followed by the musical covers "Khwab Adhoore Sahi" and "Aaj Bhi". In 2014, he starred in Mere Meherbaan, Mehram and Digest Writer.[14][15]
His career further advanced with the role of a rockstar in the 2015 religious drama series, Khuda Dekh Raha Hai, opposite Sajal Aly, for which he also sang the title song.[16] Agha then played leading roles in several successful series, including Andaaz-e-Sitam (2017), Tumhare Hain (2017), Band Khirkiyan (2019), and Dil-e-Gumshuda (2019), which added to his popularity.[4][17]
Recently, he played the lead in the very popular drama Mujhe Khuda Pay Yakeen Hai which aired on Geo Entertainment.[18]
Personal life
[edit]Aagha's struggle story and his perseverance in the media industry have made headlines, as it was a challenging journey for him to establish himself. He was also in the news for a couple of years for his relationship with co-actor Sarah Khan, and they were a popular couple at the time, but things changed when they broke up.[19]
In 2019, he met his now-wife Hina Altaf during the filming of the drama series Dil-e-Gumshuda.[20] The couple tied the knot in a private Nikah ceremony on 22 May 2020, in Karachi.[21]
As of 2024, Aagha and Hina are rumored to have broken up. He mentioned in one of his interviews with Ayaz Samoo about living alone. However, an official announcement is yet to be made by the couple themselves.[22][23]

He is, of course, the son of renowned character actor Agha Sikandar. The acting germ, in fact, runs quite rampantly throughout Aagha's family tree: his brother Ali Sikandar is a writer/actor, his maternal uncle Waseem Abbas is a well-respected veteran, his cousin Ali Abbas is also an actor, and singer-and-sometimes-actor Ali Azmat is his mother's cousin.
