Veteran performer Raza Murad commemorated his father Murad's 114th birth anniversary through a social media tribute. The late actor, born September 24, 1911, established himself as a prominent character performer throughout Indian cinema from the 1940s until the late 1980s. Murad appeared in more than 200 Hindi films and demonstrated expertise in Urdu and Persian languages. He helped his son gain admission to the Film and Television Institute of India in Pune during 1969. The elder Murad instilled values of discipline, punctuality, and professional conduct in his offspring.

Hamid Ali Murad built his reputation through collaborations with director Mehboob Khan on notable productions like Najma, Anmol Ghadi, and Mughal-e-Azam. He portrayed diverse characters ranging from fathers and judges to emperors and police officers during his extensive career. The actor demonstrated generosity by providing financial assistance to friends without expecting repayment. Murad passed away on April 24, 1987, leaving behind a legacy of memorable performances. His contributions to Indian cinema continue through his son's ongoing career in the entertainment industry.
