Ali Saleem is best known by his alter-ego Begum Nawazish Ali, and is currently a Pakistani television host, actor, scriptwriter and impressionist.
He broke into the mainstream audiences through his impersonations of late prime minister Benazir Bhutto, and later and playing the cross-dressing Begum Nawazish Ali on various television channels, including the Aaj TV network, Dawn News and Geo TV network. Although currently, his alter ego of Begum Nawazish Ali has now become his primary persona as he rarely appears as the male Ali Saleem.
