The Beginnings of an Acting Career

Nilofar Shahidi’s entry into the world of acting was unconventional, marked by a chance encounter with Mr. Sadegh Karmyar, a significant figure in the industry. During this encounter, she was offered a role in a TV movie titled “Roya.”

Recalling her first acting experience, Nilofar shared, “At the time when I had accidentally gone to work for Mr. Karmiar, he offered me an acting role, and I didn’t really take it too seriously until one day about two months later, they called me and said that they were going to shoot a TV movie soon and invited me.”

In “Roya,” Nilofar portrayed the character of Mrs. Marjan Sher Mohammadi, a woman who, on her deathbed, experiences a recurring dream that she believes will come true. The dream leads her to make life-altering decisions for her family before her passing. This role marked Nilofar’s introduction to the world of acting and set her on a path to pursue her passion.
