Dressed in an all-black outfit, Zayed was seen looking dashing as ever as he made his presence felt at the event. He was snapped by the shutterbugs inside his car.
Fighter stars Deepika Padukone and Hrithik Roshan in lead roles. It also features Anil Kapoor and Karan Sigh Grover in key roles.

In a recent interview with a news portal, Zayed shared that approximately a year and a half ago, he experienced a challenging period in his life, neglecting self-care. He attributed this phase to numerous attempts to connect with people, resulting in numerous rejections, to the extent that he almost lost sight of his identity as a star. During this challenging time, his close friend Aseem Merchant approached him with the idea of a mockumentary.

Reflecting on the past, Zayed remembered questioning Aseem about why he was presenting him with a film, given the numerous rejections he had faced, even from close friends and family. Aseem responded by assuring Zayed that the best was yet to come from him.
He will be next seen in a mockumentary titled TFTNW, in which he has also been credited as a writer.
