After assisting a number of directors on several Yash Raj Films’ ventures, Zafar made his directorial debut with the Katrina Kaif, Ali Zafar and Imran Khan starrer romantic comedy Mere Brother Ki Dulhan (2011). The film turned out to be a success at the box-office, and there has been no looking back for him ever since.

After the success of Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, Ali Abbas Zafar has directed several blockbusters including Gunday (2014), Sultan (2016), Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) and Bharat (2019).
