The actor played Shah Rukh’s stepbrother in Farah Khan’s directorial debut Main Hoon Na (2004). The movie also starred Naseeruddin Shah, Amrita Rao, Suniel Shetty, and Sushmita Sen in pivotal roles. Zayed landed the role of Lucky in SRK’s action entertainer while trying to convince Farah to choreograph a song in Chura Liyaa Hai Tumne. While speaking to Pinkvilla he said, “I was always introducing myself as Mr Sanjay Khan’s son and then Fardeen (cousin Fardeen Khan)’s brother because nobody knew me at that time. So, she said come over and I went to her office, and I was in Shah Rukh Khan’s office I didn’t know why. She asked me what’re you doing? I said I’m just doing a film right now. She said we’re considering you for Main Hoon Na’s role. And in walks Shah Rukh Khan, a very very magnanimous and lovely gentleman.”
He added, “And he sits me down and says ‘How are you Zayed? We are looking for a second lead in this film. And Farah said you might be good potential. But bhai ek baat bata, tujhe acting aati hai na? (You know how to act, right?)’ The actor said he responded to SRK saying, “Come on man, I am born to act’ and all of that. Now, rest is history. I showed Farah some of my rushes and before she sat in her car she said send me your measurements, you’re in my film.”
