Ramon Tikaram (famous for his role as Ferdy in BBC drama This Life) will arrive in Albert Square later this year playing Qadim (Mohammed Qadim Shah) father of Amira Shah.
During her formative years Qadim was a doting father to Amira, spoiling her, indulging her and creating the princess she is today. They were a happy family until the day Amira’s mother (Shahana) died of cancer, a trauma which turned a once handsome, loving, magnanimous man into a bitter, controlling tyrant.
