In 1973, while Farooq was in final year of law school, MS Satyu approached him for Satyu s directorial debut Garam Hawa. 13 His first major film role was in the 1973 film Garam Hawa where Farooq had a supporting role and leading man was Balraj Sahni. The film is credited for being a pioneer of a new wave of Hindi Art cinema. 14 His salary for his debut film was only Rupees 750. 15 He first gained popular recognition as a quiz master on radio, but it was his participation, as an anchor on Bombay Doordarshan shows such as Yuvadarshan and Young World that made him a household name. 16 Sheikh in Gaman 1978 acted as the migrant Bombay taxi driver from Badaun in Uttar Pradesh dreaming about returning home to meet his wife, but never saves up enough to return home. 17 He went on to act in several notable films such as Satyajit Ray s Shatranj Ke Khiladi Chess Players 1977, Noorie 1979, Chashme Buddoor 1981, Umrao Jaan, Bazaar, Saath Saath, Rang Birangi, Kissi Se Na Kehna 1983 and Biwi Ho To Aisi 1988. He formed a successful pair with Deepti Naval. He also did a slightly negative role in Katha. However his films between 1985 and 1997 were not successful at the box office beginning with Yash Chopra s Faasle in 1985.

In 2002, in an interview to Times of India he quoted I have never been commercially viable: People recognise me, smile and wave at me but I have never received marriage proposals written in blood. In his heyday, when Rajesh Khanna drove down a street, the traffic stopped I don t mind not receiving this kind of adulation. But I do miss not having been able to command the kind of work I wanted. I miss not being 100 per cent commercially viable. 20
