He has also worked side by side with other comedic legends like Shakti Kapoor and Asrani. He had taken many parts in films like Side Actor, Main Villain, Side Villain, Guest Actor, Comedian and many more. He lives in Mumbai, the home of the Indian film industry. Kader Khan is an ethnic Pashtun from present-day Quetta, Pakistan region.Some of his recent roles include Family:Ties of Blood and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi.



Kader Khan's childhood was spent in a dreaded area like the Kamathipura of Mumbai. He was brought up in a clutter of prostitutes, pimps, pickpockets and gangsters. He could have become one of them but he opted for films which was a wise decision to be taken.

Born of Pathan parents, Kader Khan found solace in graveyards during his entire childhood. This inspired him to write and there was also a desire to act. To fulfil all his dreams, he completed his studies and joined filmdom. But beneath everything there was a strong influence of a Muslim priest that his father was.

Once in the industry, he was able to take out all his bitterness that he had gone through. Kader Khan's writing career began with 'Jawani Deewani' but he has written dialogues for almost all Amitabh Bachchan films like 'Laawaris', 'Muqadar Ka Sikander', 'Amar Akbar Anthony', 'Sharabi' and many more where he could lash out some of the anti-elements of the society.



His acting career started with 'Khoon Pasina' and so far he has done as many as 300 movies. He has done a wide variety of roles and with 'Himmatwala' he even tried comedy. But Kader Khan must be dead tired with all his roles as Govinda's father in almost all his films. He has done most number of films with character actress Aruna Irani.
