He is from a brilliant [[Bengali Muslim]] family with strict disciplinarian parents in [[Jiaganj Azimganj|Azimgunj]], [[Murshidabad district]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/1081207/jsp/7days/story_10216903.jsp |title='I don't think I am doing anything illegal.

Television was not allowed into the house before he completed his junior school. His entry into show business happened by chance. On a rainy evening in 1994 when Mir was in his first year of college ([[Umes Chandra College]]), he was on his way home from the laundry and happened to read a six-day-old newspaper in which the washer-man had wrapped his clothes. His eyes fell upon an advertisement which said that auditions were being held for radio jockeys for a radio station to be launched soon in [[Kolkata]].

Apart from making people laugh with his jokes on the radio, Mir explored his comic side by competing events. When he finally made an appearance on TV, it was as a news reader on Khaash Khobor, a news programme on [[DD Bangla]]. Since then, Mir's career in television has seen several highs, with television shows including ''Hao Mao Khao'', and ''Beta Betir Battle'' to his credit. With the TV show [[Mirakkel]] on [[Zee Bangla]] he came to be known as the comedy king of the city.
