Hussain Nooradeen Nasir (3 April 1969) is a Maldivian film producer and actor.
Career[edit]
Nooradeen initially appeared in small roles in films like Himeyn Dhuniye (2000) and office drama Hulhukolhu (2000), before expanding his career as a producer with studio albums including Boduraalhu (2001).[1] In 2003, he played the role, Waheed, a businessman who is heartbroken in love and desperately waiting for a minor to grow up before asking her for marriage, in the television series, Ujaalaa Raasthaa. Co-directed by Mohamed Shareef and Muawiyath Anwar, it narrates the journey of two best friends in three generations.[1] The series developed as an attempt to aware the audience on several social issues, was widely accepted by the audience and received positive reviews from critics.[2]
He next appeared in a small role in Mohamed Shareef-directed drama series Loabi Vaanama (2005) where he played the role of Waheed, an infedile husband.[3] The first episode of the series was met with lukewarm response from the audience due to the different "visualization style" of the director and the scene arrangement by screenwriter.[4] However, from the second episode onwards, the series picked up and become a success among the critics and audience.[4]
The following year, he played the title role in the short film Salhibe (2006) and was a part of the cast in the third and fourth installment of the Dheke Dhekeves.[5] He also served as the producer for the first installment of the horror short film Vasvaas (2006) and Umurahvess Inthizaaru Kuraanan (2007).[6] Apart from Salhibe, he also produced and played the title role in Seedhibe (2009). One of the most notable work of Nooradeen as a producer is Moomin Fuad-directed crime tragedy drama Loodhifa.[7] Featuring an ensemble cast, the film deals with several social issues in the society told from different perspectives of the characters.[8] Made on a budget of MVR 600,000, the film was declared a commercial failure though it received wide critical acclaim, praising the performance of cast and the film's "realism" in its language, characters and their attitude.[7]
