At the age of 19 he started acting in live action, and directed yet another animation short film called Dokhtaram (My Daughter) at the age of 21, starring Iranian veteran actor Reza Kianian.

Though Qorbanzadeh has not academically studied acting, but his vast resume and his wide spectrum of roles he has played makes him a recognizable name and face amongst Iranian audiences.

Qorbanzadeh is a much sought-after actor among Iranian directors, though in recent years he has worked mainly with leading director Saman Moghadam (Maxx, Ghalbe Yakhi).

Together, Moghadam and Qorbanzadeh have produced three features and two series.
