Ali Abbas Zafar with wife Alicia Zafar
Lucky are the people who have found their soulmate. And filmmaker Ali Abbas Zafar is one such person. Amidst the pandemic, the Tiger Zinda Hai director kickstarted 2021 on a great note by tying the knot with the love of his life, Alicia. As Alicia is celebrating her birthday today, here we bring you some lesser-known facts about the gorgeous Iranian model.
She featured in two films of Ali
Gorgeous Alicia is an Iranian model based in France. Reportedly Alicia is 27-year old and she met Ali on the sets of Tiger Zinda Hai. Sharing about their romance, Ali had told ETimes, "I got to know her during ‘Tiger Zinda Hai'. After that, I kept pursuing her to marry me; she said ‘yes’ only last year. Alicia is an Iranian based in France. In fact, she’s born and brought up there. The shift was understandably not an easy decision for her at all. But I kept pursuing because I felt that she was the only one I wanted to start a family with.”
Was background dancer in Slow Motion song
Alicia also featured in Ali's Bharat starring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif in the lead. She was one of the background dancers in the Slow Motion song. And unlike other model-dancers, Alicia isn't active on social media. How we wish she creates an Instagram profile just to stay in touch with her fans.
Ali pursued her for two years
Speaking about their hush hush wedding and how he wooed Alicia, Ali had told Mid-Day, "She is from France, so the visas were initially posing a problem. As soon as she got the visa, we went to Dehradun and got married at home. It was always planned this way. She is a first-generation Iranian from France. I had gone there for work, and immediately fell in love with her. I pursued her for almost two years, convincing her that I am the man who will keep her happy. It has been a difficult task, but I am glad she finally agreed."
She is interested in taking up direction
Ali had also revealed that Alicia is very technically sound and she is fully equipped to take up direction. Well, we hope someday Ali and Alicia collaborate for a full-length feature film. Wouldn't that be great?
