Abbas (born 21 May 1975 as Mirza Abbas Ali) is an Indian film actor and model who has appeared in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Hindi and Kannada language films. After making his debut with Kadhir's ''Kadhal Desam'' (1996), Abbas enjoyed success as the second lead actor in films through the early 2000s. ==Career== Abbas grew up watching Hindi and Bengali films, with his maternal grandfather being a film actor and his paternal family being related to actor Feroz Khan.〔http://movies.rediff.com/slide-show/2010/sep/15/slide-show-1-south-interview-with-abbas.htm#4〕 He partook in modelling assignments since his college days and subsequently wanted to become an actor in Indian films. Initially after hearing that director Kadhir was looking for a new actor for his latest venture, Abbas had recommended his friends who knew Tamil to audition, and took part in a speculative audition at the insistence of his friends. Kadhir was impressed with Abbas's performance and invite him to a screen test for ''Kadhal Desam'' (1996), before eventually signing him on to play a leading role.〔http://in.rediff.com/movies/2002/jan/30abbas.htm〕 Unfamiliar with the Tamil language, Abbas used to memorise his lines on the set of the film and Kadhir began the shoot with easier portions, in order to ease Abbas into his role.〔 Featuring alongside Vineeth and Tabu, ''Kadhal Desam'' became a critical and commercial success and Abbas was dubbed by the media as a "heart-throb" and garnered several more acting offers.〔http://www.rediff.com/movies/1998/dec/01ss.htm〕 His busy schedule meant that he missed out on successful films including ''Kadhalukku Mariyadhai'' (1997) and ''Jeans'' (1998), and the Tamil films he appeared in such as ''Poochudava'' (1998) and ''Aasai Thambi'' (1998) were predominantly box office failures. Meanwhile, the success of ''Kaadhal Desams dubbed Telugu version, allowed him to make a breakthrough in Telugu films and his next ventures ''Priya O Priya'' (1997) and ''Rajahamsa'' (1998) were profitable. He also appeared in the youth-centric Kannada film, ''Shanti Shanti Shanti'' (1999), featuring alongside debutant Madhavan for the first time.〔 Following a spell of commercially disappointing Tamil films as the lead actor, Abbas worked on several prestigious films in the early 2000s as a second hero, besides working in Malayalam and Telugu films.〔 He appeared as Rajinikanth's son-in-law in ''Padayappa'' (1999), before portraying the role of a doctor in Kamal Haasan's historical film, ''Hey Ram'' (2000). Abbas then appeared in Rajiv Menon's multi-starrer ''Kandukondain Kandukondain'' (2000), in which he was paired with Aishwarya Rai, and the film went on to win positive reviews from critics.〔http://indiatoday.intoday.in/story/tamil-film-director-rajiv-menon-sets-a-trend-with-kandukondain-kandukondain/1/246924.html〕 In 2001, he made further supporting appearances in the commercially successful films, ''Minnale'' by Gautham Menon and ''Aanandham'' by N. Linguswamy, as well in ''Pammal K. Sambandam'' (2002) with Kamal Haasan again, and critics labelled the period as a "career high".〔 He appeared in a music video for Rajshri Pictures and was subsequently given the opportunity from producers to appear in Hindi films, then made his debut with ''Ansh'' (2002).〔 The failure of the film prompted two further films, including ''Aur Phir'' with Bipasha Basu to be shelved, and he continued to appear in Tamil films in supporting roles through the mid 2000s.〔http://www.thehindu.com/2001/04/05/stories/13050789.htm〕 With multi-starrers diminishing in Tamil cinema, Abbas appeared in some low-budget ventures such as ''Unarchigal'' (2006) and ''47A Besant Nagar Varai'' (2007), before opting to pursue anti-hero roles.〔http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-metroplus/scripting-a-successful-career/article3193706.ece〕 He starred as a womaniser in the horror film ''Shock'' (2004) and ''Thiruttu Payale'' (2006), and then also played a comic villain in ''Sadhu Miranda'' (2008) and ''Guru En Aalu'' (2009). In 2010, he made a return to Kannada films with the family drama ''Appu and Pappu'', portraying the father of young boy.〔 In recent years, Abbas has appeared in television serials, while he also portrayed scientist Prasanta Chandra Mahalanobis in ''Ramanujan'' (2014).〔http://www.kollyinsider.com/2013/10/abbas-returns-as-ramanujam-in-kollywood.html〕
