**Hamid Lolayi** ([Persian](/source/Persian_language): حمید لولایی, born 24 December 1955) is an Iranian actor. He won the [Crystal Simorgh](/source/Crystal_Simorgh) for Best Supporting Actor at the [Fajr Film Festival](/source/Fajr_International_Film_Festival) for his role in *Chand Migiri Geryeh Koni* (2005).

He gained fame through the television series *Zire Aseman-e Shahr* as “Khashayar Mostofi” and continued to build his reputation with roles in *Khaneh Be Doosh* as “Agha Mashallah” and *Mosafers* as “Farrokh Afrookhteh.”

## Personal and professional life

Hamid Lolayi was born in 1955 in the [Eshratabad](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eshratabad,_Tehran&action=edit&redlink=1) neighborhood of [Tehran](/source/Tehran), with ancestral roots in northern [Iran](/source/Iran), though he spent his childhood near Eshratabad Square. He grew up in a large family with nine siblings. Lolayi married in 1990 and has two daughters.[1]

He began his career in 1979 when [Reza Ghasemi](/source/Reza_Ghassemi) recommended him to director [Reza Zhian](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Reza_Zhian&action=edit&redlink=1) for the theater production *Sabzeh, Doost-e Bacheha*, where he played the roles of “Elephant” and “Woodpecker.” In 1980, he performed in *Bacheha va Khomreh-ye Sokhangu*, directed by Siavash Tahmoures, and shortly after in *An Shast Nafar, An Shast Hezar*, directed by [Bahram Ebrahimi](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bahram_Ebrahimi&action=edit&redlink=1).[2]

Lolayi then appeared in a film that was not released publicly due to its poor quality. His first television experience was in *Sarbazaran*, where he had two heavily made-up scenes, but his parts were cut from the final broadcast due to the series being shortened. Following this, he stepped away from acting for about eight years, working as the manager of [Azadi Cinema](/source/Azadi_Cinema_Complex). In 1991, he returned with a role in the series *Faramooshkhaneh*, after which he resigned from his managerial position to focus on acting. Later, Ali Omrani invited him to join the comedy series *Saat-e Khosh*. Dariush Kardan was the first to recognize Lolayi’s comedic talent, inviting him to perform in *Nowruz 72*. However, it was his role in *Saat-e Khosh* that significantly increased his visibility. After a period of absence, his portrayal of “Khashayar Mostofi” in *Zire Aseman-e Shahr*, directed by [Mehran Ghafourian](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Mehran_Ghafourian&action=edit&redlink=1), solidified his status as a prominent actor. Other notable roles include those in the series *Torsh o Shirin*, *Charkhooneh*, and the film *Chand Migiri Geryeh Koni*.[3][4]
