Syed Noor (Urdu: سید نور) is a Pakistani film director based in Lahore. He has to his credit some of Lollywood's biggest hits like Choorian, Jeeva and Deewane Tere Pyar Ke. Noor is often credited with re-vitalizing the Lollywood industry during the mid-90s, a period during which he directed hits such as Jeeva, Chor Machaye Shor and Ghoongat. In recent years Noor has often faced criticism for his casting choices and his reliance on outdated technology. Noor countered his critics with his last flick Larki Panjaban where he used supposedly some of the best gadgets to make the film. His latest Punjabi release Majajan is reportedly doing very well at the box office. According to a news report on Geo TV Pakistan, Syed Noor has been married to film actress Saima since 2005, but kept it private. This would be Noor's second marriage. He is also married to Rukhsana Noor, who is a journalist and a published poet. She has also written and produced numerous films and some television shows. Among the most successful directors today, he has completed a full circle to reach where he once was as a filmi writer - treading the beaten track as hardly as one could - though his first film as a writer, Society Girl, was no mean achievement.
