Zeba (Urdu: زیبا ) is one of the most famous actresses in Pakistan. Her real name was Shaheen, but she adopted the name Zeba for her film career. Zeba was married to Mohammad Ali , a prominent actor of Pakistan's film industry.

Most of her movies were romantic, where her pair with actor Waheed Murad became very popular. After marriage, she, however, restricted herself only to the movies with Mohammad Ali.

[edit] Professional Career

Zeba started her film career from Karachi with a lead role in "Zindagi" produced by Noor Mohammed Khan. Due to some reasons, this film was never released. She, however, obtained another lead role with Arif in the film "Shakir" which was eventually released in 1962 with a different name "Chiragh Jalta Raha".

"Tauba" was her first Golden Jubilee movie, where her beauty was immediately acknowledged by cinema goers. Her pair first with Kemal and then with Waheed Murad became instant box office hit.

After the introduction of color movies, she first appeared in "Najma". "Rishta Hey Pyar Ka" was her first film which was shot overseas. Her first Platinum Jubilee was "Armaan" which was also Pakistan's first Platinum Jubilee Urdu film.

She starred in only one Punjabi film named "Mehndi Wale Hath", whereas she had worked with a total of 45 film directors.
