Naeem Haque

you & me

Naeem Haq joined the fashion industry over a decade ago. From his barely noticeable appearances in the famous music videos, ‘Na Re Na’ (Ali Azmat) and ‘Chal Dil Meray’ (Ali Zafar), nobody thought that one day Haque would come into the limelight. However his talent, dedication and charming personality landed him various modelling projects and fashion shows. His larger than life ramp appearances include London Fashion Week (LFW), Wills Life Style India, LAKME Fashion Week Mumbai, Bridal Asia India, Fashion Pakistan Week (FPW), Bridal Couture Week (BCW), Pakistan Fashion Design Council (PFDC), Pakistan Fashion Week London, ASIANA Bridal Week London, International Fashion Festival (IFF) Qatar among many others. Naeem Haq is also a qualified Interior Architect who studied from Saint Martin’s College of Art & Design, London and National College of Arts, Lahore. After mastering the art of gymnastics in his teens, he went on further to explore his talent in directional set design, brand image consultancy, worldwide promotional participations and runway choreography. This is not all! Haque ventured into acting a few years ago, and it was his role in Geo TV’s drama serial, ‘Sangdil’, in which he made his presence felt. Currently, the actor is working on two of his movies, ‘Yalghaar’ and ‘Maan Jao Naa’. Let’s take a look at his likes and dislikes ...
