Pakistan mourns the loss of Chef Zakir Qureshi, a beloved culinary figure, who passed away in Karachi on April 21, 2025, at age 57 due to kidney disease. Known for his vibrant TV presence and accessible recipes, he leaves behind a lasting legacy.

Family sources revealed Chef Zakir had been undergoing dialysis in the United States. Deemed untreatable, he returned to Pakistan a month ago to spend his final days at home. His funeral prayers are scheduled after Asr on April 22, 2025, at Jamia Rashidia, Malir Saudabad, followed by burial at Saudabad Graveyard.

Born on February 16, 1967, in Karachi, Chef Zakir rose to fame through Hum TV and Masala TV cooking shows, including Dawat. His expertise in Pakistani and international cuisine, honed at prestigious hotels like the Sheraton and Avari, made him a household name. He simplified complex recipes, inspiring millions globally, as noted by Chef Samia Lari and fans on social media.

Fans and colleagues, including Fariha Meraj, expressed grief online, praying for his eternal peace. His innovative style and passion for fresh, flavorful dishes transformed home cooking in Pakistan and beyond.
