Rao Umar Javed is one of the brilliant future stars in the sky of Pakistan. He is an aspiring English prose writer making his name among the readers like a fire in the jungle. As a student of English Literature, his mind feeds on the imaginations of the impossibilities, the things of the unknown, and forlorn capacities.

Some of his movies are officially adapted into screenplay and can be found on YouTube. However, being an English screenwriter has always been challenging as people seldom appreciate the uniqueness of ideas brought by Rao Umar Javed. He keenly transcribes his stories with the perception of Descarte's philosophy "Cogito, ergo sum" (I Think Therefore I Am) or solipsism. We hardly entangle ourselves with the question of reality or occasionally question the validity. His stories struggle to enlighten readers with the beauty of Paradoxism that is equally blended with magical realism, surrealism, and absurdism.

Unlike other Pakistani English writers, he resides in Pakistan and pens down stories in western settings. His writings draw inspiration from the ideas of Edger Allan Poe, Christopher Nolan, Charle Kaufman, Haruka Murakami, Sir Arthur Conon Doyle, Dan Brown, and Oscar Wilde. Similar to his influences, his genres include crime fiction, science fiction, psychological thriller, action, and fantasy. Javed does not take literature just for the sake of entertainment but rather as a source of enlightenment. His writings are thrilling and stimulating and often have a nonlinear structure. His writing style enlightens you of newer possibilities limited by your mind's sense of 'impossible .'His story patterns are mind-bending, mindboggling, entertaining, and exciting, leaving a question for the readers, urging them to ponder upon it and make a possibility out of their minds. ...more

“There is a difference between knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge comes from books and wisdom from thinking. No doubt, knowledge might give you the power to speak, but wisdom helps you to know when one should not speak. They are two parallel things with different destinations.”

“Jail's are a spooky place," remarked Bill, trying to match the pace of detective Adam.

"Oh that is nothing in front of the ultimate fear" replied detective Adam.

"Ultimate fear?"

"Funny thing that, the ultimate fear is also the ultimate relief."

"Which is?"

"Death”
