Zayed Khan To Turn Director Soon

After his business partner and co-actor of his upcoming film - LOVE, BREAKUPS, ZINDAGI, Dia Mirza, announced her directorial plans; it seems Zayed Khan does want to be left behind.
In a move to show his multi-talented persona, Zayed Khan has expressed interest in directing a film too. But unlike Dia who has no criteria laid out regarding the star cast and budget, Zayed Khan on the other hand has a clear cut agenda in mind. According to the actor, “I would love to direct a film in my career. The criteria will be that it would have to be a big budget film with a big star cast. But before this happens, I have to wait for some more time as I have already many commitments to take care of.”
At the moment Zayed has his hands full. The actor has three films lined up for release this year that includes; TEZZ, SHARAFAT GAYI TEL LENE and LOVE BREAKUPS ZINDAGI, which is produced under his home banner Born Free Entertainment. Source
