At 14 years of age, he made his acting debut in the Albanian TV film "Atje ku nuk lind dielli" (Sun doesn't rise there). While producing short documentaries, he began taking acting classes in England.In 2004, Blerim was offered his first major role in a film. He attracted significant public attention in Southeast Europe by playing the part of the main character "Beni" in the Kosovar TV production "Metropolet" (director: Sunaj Raca). The action-packed coming-of-age drama "Metropolet" deals with the fate of the young Albanian boy Beni, who is hoping to attain financial wealth in Germany within a short time. In order to achieve this target, he abandons his family and friends and hooks up with the gangster Musa. However, the plan does not work out and Beni ends up in prison. Reformed by several years' imprisonment, Beni realises that it is not that easy to leave the past behind ...The successful cooperation with the well-known director Sunaj Raca was continued in 2005 in the motion picture Etjet e Kosovës (2006).
