Ali Azim is a Maldivian film actor.

Career

Mohamed Aboobakuru-directed Randhari was Azim's first release of 2015.[1] His portrayal of the character Shahid, along with the film, received negative reviews from critics and the film performed below average at the box office.[2] He was then seen in the Ali Shifau-directed romantic film Emme Fahu Vindha Jehendhen alongside Mohamed Jumayyil and Mariyam Majudha.[3] In a pre-premiere review from Vaguthu, Ismail Nail noted Azim's "upgrade" in acting skills when compared to his previous works.[4] The film was the highest grossing Maldivian film of the year, and was a commercial success.[5]

Azim's first release of 2017 came in the Ali Musthafa-directed Malikaa which performed badly at the box office.[6][7] He next featured alongside an ensemble cast including Yoosuf Shafeeu, Mohamed Manik, Ahmed Saeed and Ali Seezan in the romantic comedy film Naughty 40 which was directed by Shafeeu.[8] The film met with both critical and commercial success, emerging as one of the highest grossing Maldivian films of 2017.[9][7] He next appeared in Abdul Fatthah-directed film Hahdhu.[10] Though the film met with mixed reviews, Azim was particularly praised for his portrayal of the character, Hamza. Aishath Maaha of Avas wrote: "Perceived as a negative character, his acting skill during the emotional scenes, definitely proved that he is a wonderful actor".[11] The film proved to be another successful venture for Azim, becoming the third highest grossing film of the year.[7]
