Timeline
Ahmad Bashir (Punjabi, Urdu: احمد بشیر; March 24, 1923 – December 25, 2004) was a writer, journalist, intellectual and film director from Pakistan.
Begum Parveen Atif, also an Urdu short story writer, columnist, travelogue writer in Urdu and Punjabi, was his sister.
Ahmad Bashir was born in Eminabad near Gujranwala, (Punjab, British India) on 24 March 1923.
He claimed Kashmiri ethnic background.
He received his Bachelor of Arts degree from Srinagar and shifted to Bombay for a career in acting but soon started writing for film magazines.

After the formation of Pakistan in 1947, he came back to Punjab to settle permanently in Pakistan.
After the independence of Pakistan in 1947, Ahmad Bashir worked for several newspapers in Pakistan.

Bashir also worked for the Department of Films & Publications, Government of Pakistan, and later for National Film Development Corporation, Pakistan (NAFDEC) during Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto regime.
In 1969, Bashir directed and produced an Urdu film, Neela Parbat.
This film was considered Pakistan's early experimental feature films.
However, the film proved to be too much of an alternative genre at the time and flopped at the box-office.
After the failure of Neela Parbat, Bashir never ventured back into film making or film production.
He resigned after General Zia-ul-Haq imposed martial law in the country in 1977.
He faced bitter hardships during this period in which he was never allowed to write columns in newspapers.
