Career
Born in Kermanshah, Azadi appeared in many shows, television series and films in the Iranian era prior to the 1979 Islamic Revolution.
Azadi starred in many films of Samad and Leila, the Kaf Show directed by Parviz Sayad, and his own television series Italia Italia, playing the character Ghatebeh. Ghatebeh played in many shows where he impersonated an Kermanshahi man who was a con man by nature, very slick and a great communicator/womanizer. Ghatebeh had a distinguished Kermanshahi accent that to this day, 40 years later, people of Iran still remember with amusement.
In 1971, Azadi performed in Peter Brook's production of Orghast in Persepolis, which was part of the 2,500 year celebration of the Persian Empire.
Azadi fled from Iran to Germany, where he lived in Bremen for 20 years, and then moved to the United States. He made no more films, but took up painting.
In 2010, Azadi exhibited his paintings at the Seyhoun Gallery in Hollywood, California.
