Rizwan Ahmed

After studying PPE at Oxford, London-based actor Rizwan Ahmed went on to win a scholarship at the Central School of Speech and Drama. He played one of the lead characters in the feature film Road to Guantánamo, going on to release his first single, Post 9/11 Blues, which was banned by MTV and mainstream media for its emphatic indictment of the ‘war on terror’. He performed as part of the Electric Proms with the BBC, and is also the Royal Festival Hall’s Resident Emerging Artist. He starred in the 2007 drama Britz, and numerous other stage and screen plays.
