Before Acting
Humayun Saeed obtained a Bachelor of Commerce Degree, before establishing himself as production manager in a garment factory named "H. Nizam Din & Sons (Pvt) Ltd." Karachi, where he stayed from 1991– 1995.
Early career
He first appeared on television at the end of 1995. He accepted roles in various drama serials, appearing alongside other actors such as Aaminah Haq and Faryal Gohar. Taking up modeling as a side-by-side profession, Saeed soon received coverage for "his looks, his etiquette and above all, for his impressive voice.
His first television play was 'Ye Jahan.' In 1996, he was declared Best Actor, at the PTV Performance Awards, for his performance in the play "Ab tum ja sakte ho." The same year he earned another Best Actor award for his performance in the telefilm 'Zeher.' His First Television Serial was 'Karooron Ka Aadmi' produced by Nadeem A. Khan in 1998.

In cinema
As his career progressed, Saeed took roles in film as well. His first film, Inteha opposite Meera, was commercially successful. However, his second film, No Paisa No Problem, in which he plays a prostitute, flopped.[citation needed]
Saeed was offered the lead role in director-producer Javed Sheikh's film, Yeh Dil Aap Ka Huwa. He rejected it, citing date clashes and the role, therefore, went to film actor Moammar Rana instead. Yeh Dil Aap Ka Huwa turned out to be a hit, and Saeed agreed to work on Javed Sheikh's next movie, Khullay Aasmaan Ke Neeche (KAKN), which was released in July 2008. The film failed to make the mark its predecessor Yeh Dil Ap Ka Hua had, but still garnered some good reviews.
In August 2011, his film where he plays the lead role of an inspector in Shamoon Abbasi's directorial debut Gidh will be released. Also in the film appears Mona Lisa, newcomers Imran Patel and Ali Jabrin and Abbasi in an cameo.
Recently Saeed has signed director Amir Zafar's film Victim in which he has been paired opposite Meera.The films inauguration function was held on 3 June in Pearl Continental Hotel,Lahore.The film is reportedly based on post 9/11 scenario.The films filming is scheduled to start soon.
Production
Since the mid to late 1990s, Saeed has been producing his own television serials, especially for Pakistani channels like PTV, under the banner of Humayun Saeed Productions.
In 2000, he partnered with Abdullah Kadwani to form Humayun Saeed-Abdullah Kadwani Productions. Their very first serial, Ana, garnered a Lux Style Award.
