He later was the driving force behind EMI Pakistan. EMI provided the platform for Pakistan's biggest music artists during the 1970s and later decades. Arshad Mehmood served there as a music producer and a talent promoter. His role at EMI was so crucial that noted Pakistani music director Nisar Bazmi reportedly commented, "EMI Pakistan without Arshad would be a nonentity".[3]
He had acting roles in Pakistani TV drama serials such as Aangan Terha and Dhoop Kinare, Khamosh Pani (Silent Waters) (2003) and the music composition of ghazals from the poetry of Faiz Ahmed Faiz.[5] He knew Faiz Ahmad Faiz and learned a lot from him, important things like patience, rationalizing one's problems and being cheerful even in the face of adversity.[4]
