The "Sound of Metal" star wore black from head to toe with his Prada ensemble, while Mirza sparkled in a long-sleeved turquoise gown.
Ahmed and Mirza, who got married this year, made their red-carpet debut on Sunday.
Ahmed opened up for the first time about his wife in January, revealing that they had met by chance in a New York cafe.
"We just both sat down at the same table in a cafe, where we both turned up to write," he told Jimmy Fallon on "The Tonight Show."
"We were both jostling over the same laptop plug points, like a very modern way of meeting," he added.
Ahmed said he and Mirza got married in a backyard wedding due to the pandemic.
"It was kind of interesting doing it with COVID and everything going on," he said. "Obviously kept it super intimate and socially distant."
