Amir was studying at the Foundation for Advancement of Science and Technology (FAST-NUCES), when she auditioned for the romantic comedy Janaan (2016), a film produced by the debutante filmmaker Imran Kazmi. Upon release, the film received positive reviews and was a commercial success. Her role of a mischievous Pashtun woman was critically appreciated and gained her a Lux Style Award for Best Supporting Actress nomination.
Amir subsequently starred as a beauty-obsessed unfaithful wife in the 2017 romantic television series Titli. The series was the modern adaption of the novel Beauty and the Beast, and aired on Urdu 1. The success of the series proved a breakthrough for her, earning her wide public recognition.

As her previous release, it emerged as a major critical and commercial success and both the films rank among the highest-grossing Pakistani films. Amir’s next portrayal was of a girl next door in the ARY Digital’s melodrama Visaal (2018), opposite Zahid Ahmed and Saboor Aly, one of the most popular dramas of 2018.
