Born in Pakistan, Saad Siddiqui moved to New York when he was 8 and grew up there and in Baltimore and Columbia, Maryland. Saad considered being an actor from an early age as he was influenced by one of his elder brothers’ who was an actor in New York. However, he began considering it seriously when he started studying at the same high school that was attended by one of his favourite actors, Edward Norton, in Columbia. After completing high school, he moved to Canada to study Political Science, to continue to pursue a career in humanitarian work and to continue his acting career.
