View on GrokipediaEarly Life and Education
Family Background and Upbringing
Iresh Zaker was born on November 6, 1976, in Dhaka, Bangladesh, to Aly Zaker and Sara Zaker, both established figures in the Bangladeshi performing arts.[4] Aly Zaker, a veteran actor and director, founded the theater group Nagarik Natyagosthi in 1972 and co-established the advertising firm Asiatic Marketing Communications Limited, which later evolved into Asiatic 360.[3] Sara Zaker, an actress and theater personality, collaborated extensively with her husband in productions and served as managing director of Asiatic 360 until her death in 2023.[11] The couple's professional immersion in theater, television, and advertising created a culturally rich household environment for their children. Zaker grew up alongside his younger sister, Sriya Sharbojoya Zaker, in Dhaka, where the family's artistic pursuits exposed him to dramatic arts from an early age.[3] His parents' involvement in stage performances and media projects meant frequent exposure to rehearsals, scripts, and creative discussions, though Zaker later described learning acting through personal observation rather than formal family training.[4] This upbringing in a prominent artistic family influenced his early interests, with familial connections facilitating his later entry into the industry, including auditions overseen by his mother.[12] Zaker completed his primary and secondary education at Scholastica School in Dhaka, graduating in 1994.[3] The school's emphasis on holistic development aligned with his family's values, providing a structured foundation amid the dynamic home life shaped by his parents' careers in public-facing creative fields.[11] This period solidified his roots in Bangladesh's cultural milieu, where familial legacy in theater and business would later intersect with his own professional path.Academic and Early Influences
Iresh Zaker completed his secondary education at Scholastica School in Dhaka before pursuing higher studies in the United States.[1] He initially enrolled at Grinnell College in Iowa, then transferred to Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin, where he earned a bachelor's degree in 2000, majoring in economics and anthropology with a minor in mathematics.[13] In 2002, he obtained a Master of Science in development economics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.[4] Despite his academic focus on economics, Zaker's early influences were profoundly shaped by his family's deep involvement in Bangladeshi theater and performing arts. His parents, Aly Zaker and Sara Zaker, were pioneering figures in the industry; Aly co-founded the theater group Nakshi Katha in 1972 and later established Nagarik Natyagosthi in 1985, while Sara served as a director and actress in numerous productions.[14] This cultural milieu provided Zaker with immersion in dramatic literature, rehearsals, and performances from childhood, fostering an early interest in the arts even as he prioritized formal economic training.[4] During his school and university years, Zaker participated in various extracurricular activities, which complemented his academic pursuits and hinted at his latent creative inclinations, though he deferred professional entry into entertainment until after completing his studies.[14] His initial forays included voice acting for the children's educational program Sisimpur, reflecting the blend of analytical discipline from economics and narrative exposure from family heritage that would later inform his multifaceted career.[15]Personal Life
Family and Relationships
Iresh Zaker is the son of Aly Zaker, a renowned Bangladeshi actor, director, and freedom fighter who died on May 27, 2020, and Sara Zaker, an actress, media executive, and entrepreneur.[16][11] His parents married in 1975 and co-founded the theatre group Nagarik Natyagosthi.[16] Zaker shares a close family bond with his sister, Sriya Sharbojoya, who has occasionally appeared in media discussions alongside their mother.[11] Zaker married actress Zakia Rashid, known professionally as Mim Rashid and sister to actress Rafiath Rashid Mithila, in a ceremony on February 4, 2018, followed by a reception.[17] The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Meha, shortly thereafter.[18] No prior marriages or significant public relationships for Zaker have been documented in reliable sources.[19]Interests and Lifestyle
Iresh Zaker maintains a lifestyle that balances his demanding roles in advertising and acting with personal pursuits centered on creativity and leisure. He prioritizes maintaining equilibrium between professional commitments, often scheduling acting projects like TV plays around holidays such as Eid to avoid overlap with business responsibilities.[12] Photography serves as Zaker's primary hobby and passion, with a focus on indoor shoots that reflect his artistic inclinations inherited from his family's theater background. He has established a personal gallery to host exhibitions, further integrating this interest into his creative output.[4][1] As a devoted supporter of Liverpool Football Club, Zaker incorporates his fandom into family celebrations, such as birthdays featuring club-themed decorations and custom jerseys. He shares a keen interest in sports like cricket and engages passionately in discussions on politics, traits he attributes to influences from his father.[20][21][1] Zaker emphasizes travel as a key element of his lifestyle, viewing it as a catalyst for creativity through exposure to diverse cultures and experiences, which he pursues alongside his professional travels.[22]Professional Career
Entry into Entertainment
Iresh Zaker entered the entertainment industry through television acting, debuting in 2006 in the single-episode play Batasher Khacha, where he played the role of Shahed opposite his father, Aly Zaker, who portrayed his on-screen father.[15][23] For this initial role, Zaker underwent four auditions supervised by his mother, Sara Zaker, indicating a selective process despite his familial connections in the performing arts.[4] His early television work built on this debut, contributing to an extensive portfolio that includes over 300 drama appearances by the mid-2010s.[4] Zaker's entry leveraged the prominence of his parents—Aly Zaker as a veteran actor and Sara Zaker as a thespian and director—but he established a distinct presence in commercial television fiction, distinct from the experimental theater associated with his family's Nahum group.[12] Transitioning to film, Zaker made his cinematic debut in 2012 with Chorabali, directed by Redoan Rony, marking his expansion from television into feature-length productions.[23][4] This step reflected a deliberate progression in his career, amid his concurrent involvement in advertising through Asiatic 360, though his acting pursuits remained primary in the entertainment domain.[12]Acting Roles and Breakthroughs
Zaker initially pursued acting through television serial dramas and voice work, including radio dramas and contributions to the children's program Sisimpur.[12][15] He transitioned to film with his debut in the 2012 thriller Chorabali, directed by Redoan Rony, where he portrayed the character Swapan in a story centered on urban crime and survival.[4][24] Early film roles often cast him as antagonists, reflecting his self-described suitability for villainous parts due to physical appearance rather than conventional leading-man traits.[25] A notable such performance came in Chuye Dile Mon (2015), directed by Shihab Shaheen, in which he depicted a gangster amid a narrative of romance and conflict.[26] This period marked his growing presence in Bangladeshi cinema, with subsequent appearances in supporting capacities in films like Zero Degree (2015).[4] Zaker's roles expanded to include diverse characters in later projects, such as Sukhmoy in Barir Naam Shahana (2023), a drama about familial and societal struggles that Bangladesh selected as its entry for the 98th Academy Awards in the International Feature Film category.[27] He also took on a significant part in Black War (circa 2023), contributing to its buzz among audiences for its intense storytelling.[4] These performances underscored his versatility beyond typecasting, though negative roles remained a staple, aligning with industry tendencies to assign him such parts based on established precedents in his career.[25]Business Leadership at Asiatic 360
Iresh Zaker serves as Group Managing Director of Asiatic 3sixty, a Bangladeshi communication conglomerate providing integrated marketing and advertising solutions, where he directs the overall strategy across its network of specialized subsidiaries.[1] He began his professional tenure at the group as an Account Executive with Asiatic Marketing Communications Limited (Asiatic MCL), progressing to leadership roles that encompass oversight of operations in advertising, events, and digital services.[1] In addition to his group-level responsibilities, Zaker holds the position of Managing Director for several key entities, including Asiatic MCL, Asiatic Experiential Marketing Ltd., Asiatic Events, Stencil Bangladesh Ltd., Optimum Solutions, Talkingpoint, and A-Minor Studio, which focuses on animation and post-production.[1] At Asiatic MCL, he leads a leadership team comprising a Chief Strategy Officer, Vice President of Client Services, Lead Growth Officer, and Executive Creative Directors, emphasizing core areas such as brand communication, digital marketing, social communication, and community engagement.[28] Under Zaker's management, Asiatic 3sixty has pursued expansion into trade marketing with the establishment of Asiatic Trade Marketing Services Limited in 2019, aimed at enhancing project management and accountability in client activations.[29] The group has also ventured into digital communication through the launch of Stackmist Digital Communication Limited, with Zaker serving as a director, to bolster capabilities in emerging media landscapes.[30] These initiatives align with the conglomerate's model of independent yet unified companies delivering 360-degree consumer engagement solutions.[1]Activism and Public Engagement
Cultural Activism
Iresh Zaker has actively promoted Bangladeshi performing arts through performances in theater productions, including English-language plays staged in Dhaka, which help sustain multilingual cultural expression amid a predominantly Bengali theater landscape.[31] His roles in such works demonstrate a commitment to broadening access to diverse dramatic traditions, fostering appreciation for global influences within local contexts.[31] In collaboration with institutions like Shilpakala Academy, Zaker has organized events such as documentary screenings honoring key figures in Bangladeshi cinema, aiming to educate audiences on historical contributions to national film and arts heritage.[4] These initiatives underscore efforts to preserve and disseminate cultural narratives through public programming.[4] As president of the Television Programme Producers Association of Bangladesh, Zaker advocates for the interests of content creators, supporting policies and platforms that enhance the production and distribution of culturally significant media.[32] This leadership role involves coordinating with industry stakeholders to address challenges in television arts, thereby sustaining creative output in a competitive media environment.[32]Involvement in the 2024 July Uprising
Iresh Zaker, as a cultural activist and actor, publicly aligned with the student-led protests of the 2024 July Uprising in Bangladesh, which began as opposition to the Supreme Court's reinstatement of a 30% quota for government jobs reserved for descendants of freedom fighters and evolved into mass demonstrations against perceived authoritarianism under Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's Awami League government. Zaker expressed solidarity with the protesters from the early stages of the movement, contributing to efforts that amplified cultural and artistic support for the demands of quota reform and accountability for government violence.[33][34] Following the peak of violence in mid-July, which resulted in over 1,400 deaths according to a UN Human Rights Council report, Zaker participated directly in street demonstrations condemning the crackdown. On August 1, 2024, he organized and joined an artists' rally at Farmgate in Dhaka, where participants braved heavy rain to protest the "July killings" and stand in solidarity with students, marking a key instance of cultural figures mobilizing public outrage against state repression.[33][34][35] He was also present at Shahbagh on August 4, 2024, during the imposition of curfew, alongside fellow artists supporting the uprising's momentum that ultimately led to Hasina's resignation on August 5.[33] Zaker's engagement extended family involvement, with his brother actively participating in various protests to aid students, reflecting broader cultural sector backing for the movement's push against systemic discrimination and extrajudicial measures. His actions positioned him as a vocal proponent of the uprising's core grievances, emphasizing non-violent advocacy and public mourning for victims amid the transition to an interim government.[36][8]Controversies and Legal Challenges
2025 Murder Case Accusation and Discharge
In April 2025, a case was filed in a Dhaka court accusing Iresh Zaker of complicity in the murder of BNP activist Mahfuz Alam Sraban, who was killed during clashes amid the 2024 July Uprising. Zaker, listed as accused number 157 among 407 others including former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, was alleged to have supported the government forces responsible for the violence against protesters.[37][36] Police investigation into the case, centered on the shooting incident around 2:30 PM on August 5, 2024, uncovered no evidence implicating Zaker. Key findings included the absence of eyewitness testimony placing him at the scene, lack of still images or video footage depicting his involvement, and no documentary records linking him to the perpetrators or the act of shooting.[7][8] On October 9, 2025, Inspector Sajjad Roman submitted an interim report recommending Zaker's discharge, citing the evidentiary gaps, with similar requests extended to 18 other accused. The report was filed between October 9 and 16, 2025, but as of October 27, 2025, the court had not yet ruled on the discharge petition.[6][7][8]Filmography
Feature Films
Iresh Zaker's feature film appearances are primarily in Bangladeshi cinema, where he has taken on supporting roles in dramas and thrillers.[4] His debut came in 2015 with Zero Degree, directed by Animesh Aich, marking an early foray into narrative filmmaking.[4] That same year, Zaker starred as Danny in Chuye Dile Mon, a romantic drama directed by Shihab Shaheen, co-starring Zakia Bari Momo and Arifin Shuvoo.[5][38] Subsequent roles include Shonibar Bikel (2015), a drama exploring urban life,[39] Mirror Game (2016), a thriller,[40] Swapnajaal (2018), directed by Giasuddin Selim,[4] and Debi (2018), a mystery film directed by Anam Biswas.[4][39] He also contributed to the anthology Sincerely Yours, Dhaka (2018).[40]| Year | Title | Role (if known) | Director | Genre/Notes |
